TMA-F5-BIGIP-3.2
Ensure access to Configuration utility by clients using TLS version 1.2 or later
Description
TLSv1.2 should be used for GUI connections PASS requires sys httpd ssl-protocol "TLSv1.2" (optionally with TLSv1.3). Audited against tmsh output with defaults shown: save the concatenated output of 'tmsh list auth password-policy all-properties', 'tmsh list auth source all-properties', 'tmsh list auth remote-user all-properties', 'tmsh list auth radius all-properties', 'tmsh list sys httpd all-properties', 'tmsh list sys sshd all-properties', 'tmsh list sys global-settings all-properties', 'tmsh list cli global-settings all-properties', 'tmsh list sys ntp', 'tmsh list sys snmp all-properties', 'tmsh list sys syslog' and 'tmsh list net self all-properties'. Patterns are scoped to the named top-level block.
How it is checked
Audit method: Configuration pattern
- Pattern
(?m)^sys httpd \{\n(?:[ \t]+[^\n]*\n)*?[ \t]+ssl-protocol "?(?:TLSv1\.2|TLSv1\.2 TLSv1\.3)"?[ \t]*$
How it is fixed
Fix method: Guidance or infrastructure patch
tmsh modify sys httpd ssl-protocol "TLSv1.2" tmsh save sys config # CIS guidance: If the value is different, execute the following command to modify the protocol used to access GUI: tmsh modify /sys httpd ssl-protocol "TLSv1.2" tmsh save sys config
