Discussion

Untrusted Certificate Authorities (CA) can issue certificates, but they may be issued by organizations or individuals that seek to compromise DOD systems or by organizations with insufficient security controls. If the CA used for verifying the certificate is not a DOD-approved CA, trust of this CA has not been established. The DOD will only accept PKI certificates obtained from a DOD-approved internal or external certificate authority. Reliance on CAs for the establishment of secure sessions includes, for example, the use of SSL/TLS certificates. The HPE 3PAR OS can be configured to use only defined CA(s) for specific purposes. There is no default set of CA certificates included in the product.

Check Content

Check that a signed client certificate and CA certificate have been imported for the ldap service:

cli% showcert -service ldap

If the output does not contain DOD PKI certificates of at least two lines of output, one of type "cert" and one of type "rootca", this is a finding.

Fix Text

Install the root CA certificate used to sign the LDAP server’s certificate:

cli% importcert ldap -ca stdin

Copy and paste the PEM format certificate contents as instructed.

The fipsvr process will be restarted.
