Discussion

To ensure users do not experience denial of service when performing certificate-based authentication to DoD websites due to the system chaining to a root other than DoD Root CAs, the DoD Interoperability Root CA cross-certificates must be installed in the Untrusted Certificate Store. This requirement only applies to unclassified systems. Satisfies: SRG-OS-000066-GPOS-00034, SRG-OS-000403-GPOS-00182

This is applicable to unclassified systems. It is NA for others.

Open "PowerShell" as an administrator.

Execute the following command:

Get-ChildItem -Path Cert:Localmachine\disallowed | Where {$_.Issuer -Like "*DoD Interoperability*" -and $_.Subject -Like "*DoD*"} | FL Subject, Issuer, Thumbprint, NotAfter

If the following certificate "Subject", "Issuer", and "Thumbprint" information is not displayed, this is a finding. 

If an expired certificate ("NotAfter" date) is not listed in the results, this is not a finding.

Subject: CN=DoD Root CA 2, OU=PKI, OU=DoD, O=U.S. Government, C=US
Issuer: CN=DoD Interoperability Root CA 1, OU=PKI, OU=DoD, O=U.S. Government, C=US
Thumbprint: 22BBE981F0694D246CC1472ED2B021DC8540A22F

Click "OK".

Expand "Certificates" and navigate to "Untrusted Certificates >> Certificates".

For each certificate with "DoD Root CA..." under "Issued To" and "DoD Interoperability Root CA..." under "Issued By":

Right-click on the certificate and select "Open".

Select the "Details" Tab.

Scroll to the bottom and select "Thumbprint".

If the certificates below are not listed or the value for the "Thumbprint" field is not as noted, this is a finding.
