SV-99821r1_rule The HAProxy baseline must be documented and maintained.

Vulnerability discussion

Without maintenance of a baseline of current HAProxy software, monitoring for changes cannot be complete and unauthorized changes to the software can go undetected. Changes to HAProxy could be the result of intentional or unintentional actions.

Check content

Have the appliance administrator and/or ISSO provide the HAProxy software baseline procedures, implementation evidence, and a list of files and directories included in the baseline procedure for completeness. If baseline procedures do not exist, not implemented reliably, or are not complete, this is a finding.

Fix text

Develop, document, and implement baseline procedures that include all HAProxy software files and directories. Update the baseline after new installations, upgrades, or maintenance activities that include changes to the software baseline.

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
