Host must verify certificates for TLS remote logging endpoints

SedangLevel 1Otomatisvmware

Deskripsi

When engaging in remote logging activities, it is of utmost importance to ensure that the logging endpoint is genuine and secure. To achieve this, hosts should verify the TLS certificates of these endpoints. This verification provides assurance that the endpoint is both authentic and trustworthy, mitigating the risk of transmitting logs to potentially malicious or untrusted ... The audit reads Syslog.global.certificate.checkSSLCerts with esxcli and requires true (1). Runs in the ESXi Shell (busybox sh) as root.

Cara pemeriksaan

Metode audit: Perintah shell

shell

out=$(esxcli system settings advanced list -o /Syslog/global/certificate/checkSSLCerts 2>/dev/null) || exit 1
v=$(printf '%s\n' "$out" | awk '$1=="Int" && $2=="Value:" {print $3; exit}')
case "$v" in ''|*[!0-9-]*) echo '/Syslog/global/certificate/checkSSLCerts: no integer value'; exit 1 ;; esac
if [ "$v" -eq 1 ]; then echo compliant; else echo "/Syslog/global/certificate/checkSSLCerts = $v (expected true/1)"; fi

Output yang diharapkan: compliant

Cara perbaikan

Metode perbaikan: Panduan atau patch infrastruktur

Execute command: esxcli system syslog config set --check-ssl- certs=true Verify with: esxcli system syslog config get remediated result should include: ssl://
