Discussion

Public key infrastructure (PKI) certificates are certificates with visibility external to organizational systems and certificates related to the internal operations of systems, such as application-specific time services. In cryptographic systems with a hierarchical structure, a trust anchor is an authoritative source (e.g., a certificate authority) for which trust is assumed and not derived. A root certificate for a PKI system is an example of a trust anchor. A trust store or certificate store maintains a list of trusted root certificates.

Check Content

Verify the system includes only approved certificates with the following command:

For each certificate listed above, utilize the system documentation to verify the fingerprint(s) match the authorized certificate(s).

If the fingerprint(s) listed above do not match the certificate(s) listed in the system documentation, this is a finding.

Fix Text

Install the correct certificate for each service using the importcert command.

importcert <SSL_service> [-f] -ca <CA_bundle>
