MariaDB Enterprise 10.x Security Technical Implementation Guide

Rules, Groups, and Values defined within the XCCDF Benchmark

  • MariaDB must use NSA-approved cryptography to protect classified information in accordance with the data owner's requirements.

    Use of weak or untested encryption algorithms undermines the purposes of utilizing encryption to protect data. The application must implement cryptographic modules adhering to the higher standards ...
    Rule High Severity
  • MariaDB must implement cryptographic mechanisms to prevent unauthorized modification of organization-defined information at rest (to include, at a minimum, PII and classified information) on organization-defined information system components.

    MariaDB’s handling of data requiring data at rest protections must employ cryptographic mechanisms to prevent unauthorized disclosure and modification of the information at rest. These cryptographi...
    Rule High Severity
  • MariaDB must maintain the confidentiality and integrity of information during preparation for transmission.

    Information can be either unintentionally or maliciously disclosed or modified during preparation for transmission, including, for example, during aggregation, at protocol transformation points, an...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • When invalid inputs are received, MariaDB must behave in a predictable and documented manner that reflects organizational and system objectives.

    A common vulnerability is unplanned behavior when invalid inputs are received. This requirement guards against adverse or unintended system behavior caused by invalid inputs, where information syst...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • MariaDB must generate audit records when categories of information (e.g., classification levels/security levels) are accessed.

    Changes in categories of information must be tracked. Without an audit trail, unauthorized access to protected data could go undetected. For detailed information on categorizing information, refer...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • MariaDB must generate audit records when unsuccessful attempts to access categories of information (e.g., classification levels/security levels) occur.

    Changes in categories of information must be tracked. Without an audit trail, unauthorized access to protected data could go undetected. To aid in diagnosis, it is necessary to keep track of faile...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • MariaDB must generate audit records when unsuccessful attempts to modify privileges/permissions occur.

    Failed attempts to change the permissions, privileges, and roles granted to users and roles must be tracked. Without an audit trail, unauthorized attempts to elevate or restrict privileges could go...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • MariaDB must generate audit records when categories of information (e.g., classification levels/security levels) are modified.

    Changes in categories of information must be tracked. Without an audit trail, unauthorized access to protected data could go undetected. For detailed information on categorizing information, refer...

    Rule Medium Severity
  • MariaDB must generate audit records when privileges/permissions are deleted.

    Changes in the permissions, privileges, and roles granted to users and roles must be tracked. Without an audit trail, unauthorized elevation or restriction of privileges could go undetected. Elevat...

The content of the drawer really is up to you. It could have form fields, definition lists, text lists, labels, charts, progress bars, etc. Spacing recommendation is 24px margins. You can put tabs in here, and can also make the drawer scrollable.
