Vulnerability discussion

IP tunneling mechanisms can be used to bypass network filtering.

Check content

Determine if any IP tunnels are configured on the system. Check for IP tunnels. # lstun -a # ifconfig -a | grep -e gre -e gif -e cti -e sit If any tunnels are listed, this is a finding.

Fix text

Remove the configuration for any IP tunnels from the system. Remove tunnels listed with the lstun command. #rmtun -t -d Remove the tunneled IP interfaces. #ifconfig detach #rmdev -Rdl

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.
