The gateway router for the managed network is not configured with an ACL or filter on the egress interface to block all outbound management traffic.

From Perimeter Router Security Technical Implementation Guide Juniper

Part of Management traffic is not blocked by egress ACL.

SV-19318r2_rule The gateway router for the managed network is not configured with an ACL or filter on the egress interface to block all outbound management traffic.

Vulnerability discussion

The management network must still have its own subnet in order to enforce control and access boundaries provided by Layer 3 network nodes such as routers and firewalls. Management traffic between the managed network elements and the management network is routed via the same links and nodes as that used for production or operational traffic. Safeguards must be implemented to ensure that the management traffic does not leak past the managed network’s premise equipment such as using egress ACLs.

The gateway router of the managed network must be configured with an ACL or filter on the egress interface to block all outbound management traffic. Review router configuration to verify that any traffic destined to the management network is blocked. The configuration example below is blocking all traffic with a destination address from the 10/8 prefix which is being used as the address block for the management network. interfaces { fe-0/0/0 { description “link to our Private Net” unit 0 { family inet { address 192.168.1.1/24; } } } t3-3/0/3 { description “link to NIPRNet” unit 0 { family inet { filter { input OOBM-ingress-filter; output OOBM-egress-filter; } address 188.1.20.3/24; } } } firewall { filter OOBM-ingress-filter { term block-mgmt { from { destination-address { 10.0.0.0/8; } } then { accept; } } … … … term default-action { then { syslog; discard; } } } }

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.
