The stability of the $n=1$ resistive wall modes (RWMs) is investigated using the AEGIS code for the newly designed China Fusion Engineering Test Reactor (CFETR) 1GW steady-state operating (SSO) scenario. Here, $n$ is the toroidal mode number. Due to the large fraction of bootstrap current contribution, the profile of safety factor q is deeply reversed in magnetic shear in the central core region and locally flattened within the edge pedestal. Consequently the pressure-driven infernal components develop in the corresponding q-flattened regions of both core and edge. However, the edge infernal components dominate the $n=1$ RWM structure and lead to lower $beta_N$ limits than the designed target $beta_N$ for the CFETR 1GW SSO scenario. The edge rotation is found the most critical to the stabilization due to the dominant influence of the edge infernal components, which should be maintained above $1.5%Omega_{A0}$ in magnitude in order for the rotation alone to fully suppress the $n=1$ RWM in the CFETR 1GW SSO scenario.
