Host must use strict x509 verification for TLS-enabled remote logging endpoints

SedangLevel 1Otomatisvmware

Deskripsi

When employing remote logging with TLS-enabled endpoints, it is essential to ensure the utmost integrity and authenticity of the certificates in use. The "x509-strict" option provides a higher level of security by performing additional validity checks on CA root certificates during the verification process. The audit reads Syslog.global.certificate.strictX509Compliance with esxcli and requires true (1). Runs in the ESXi Shell (busybox sh) as root.

Cara pemeriksaan

Metode audit: Perintah shell

shell

out=$(esxcli system settings advanced list -o /Syslog/global/certificate/strictX509Compliance 2>/dev/null) || exit 1
v=$(printf '%s\n' "$out" | awk '$1=="Int" && $2=="Value:" {print $3; exit}')
case "$v" in ''|*[!0-9-]*) echo '/Syslog/global/certificate/strictX509Compliance: no integer value'; exit 1 ;; esac
if [ "$v" -eq 1 ]; then echo compliant; else echo "/Syslog/global/certificate/strictX509Compliance = $v (expected true/1)"; fi

Output yang diharapkan: compliant

Cara perbaikan

Metode perbaikan: Panduan atau patch infrastruktur
