SV-79017r1_rule OHS must use wallets that have only DoD certificate authorities defined.

Vulnerability discussion

Non-DoD approved PKIs have not been evaluated to ensure that they have security controls and identity vetting procedures in place which are sufficient for DoD systems to rely on the identity asserted in the certificate. PKIs lacking sufficient security controls and identity vetting procedures risk being compromised and issuing certificates that enable adversaries to impersonate legitimate users.

Check content

1. Go to the location of the OHS keystores (e.g., cd $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/components/OHS//keystores). 2. For each wallet directory located there, do the following: a) Issue the command "$ORACLE_HOME/oracle_common/bin/orapki wallet display -wallet ". b) Confirm that only the appropriate DoD Certificate Authorities are listed as Trusted Certificates. 3. If any of the Trusted Certificates are not appropriate DoD Certificate Authorities, this is a finding.

Fix text

1. Go to the location of the OHS keystores (e.g., cd $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/components/OHS//keystores). 2. For each wallet directory located there, do the following: a) Issue the command "$ORACLE_HOME/oracle_common/bin/orapki wallet display -wallet ". b) Remove each Trusted Certificate from the wallet that is not an appropriate DoD Certificate Authority with the command "$ORACLE_HOME/oracle_common/bin/orapki wallet remove -wallet -dn -trusted_cert".

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.
