Vulnerability discussion

Oracle Node Manager is a utility that can be used to perform common operational tasks across Managed Servers. These servers can be distributed across multiple machines and geographical locations. The "KeyStores" property is used to configure the keystore configuration that will be used by Node Manager to locate its identity (private key and digital certificate) and trust (trusted CA certificates). The property must be set to "CustomIdentityAndCustomTrust", which causes Node Manager to use an identity and trust keystore created by the SA.

Check content

1. Open $DOMAIN_HOME/nodemanager/nodemanager.properties with an editor. 2. Search for the "KeyStores" property. 3. If the property does not exist or is not set to "CustomIdentityAndCustomTrust", this is a finding.

Fix text

1. Open $DOMAIN_HOME/nodemanager/nodemanager.properties with an editor. 2. Search for the "KeyStores" property. 3. Set the "KeyStores" property to "CustomIdentityAndCustomTrust", add the property if it does not exist.

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.
