  • Oracle WebLogic must utilize cryptography to protect the confidentiality of remote access management sessions.

    Remote management access is accomplished by leveraging common communication protocols and establishing a remote connection to the application server via a network for the purposes of managing the a...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • Oracle WebLogic must employ automated mechanisms to facilitate the monitoring and control of remote access methods.

    Remote network access is accomplished by leveraging common communication protocols and establishing a remote connection. Application servers provide remote management access and need to provide t...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • Oracle WebLogic must ensure remote sessions for accessing security functions and security-relevant information are audited.

    Auditing must be utilized in order to track system activity, assist in diagnosing system issues and provide evidence needed for forensic investigations post security incident. Remote access by ad...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • Oracle WebLogic must limit the number of failed login attempts to an organization-defined number of consecutive invalid attempts that occur within an organization-defined time period.

    Anytime an authentication method is exposed so as to allow for the login to an application, there is a risk that attempts will be made to obtain unauthorized access. By limiting the number of fail...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • Oracle WebLogic must enforce the organization-defined time period during which the limit of consecutive invalid access attempts by a user is counted.

    By limiting the number of failed login attempts, the risk of unauthorized system access via automated user password guessing, otherwise known as brute-forcing, is reduced. Best practice requires a ...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • Oracle WebLogic must protect against an individual falsely denying having performed a particular action.

    Non-repudiation of actions taken is required in order to maintain application integrity. Examples of particular actions taken by individuals include creating information, sending a message, approvi...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • Oracle WebLogic must compile audit records from multiple components within the system into a system-wide (logical or physical) audit trail that is time-correlated to within an organization-defined level of tolerance.

    Audit generation and audit records can be generated from various components within the application server. The list of audited events is the set of events for which audits are to be generated. This...
    Rule Low Severity
  • Oracle WebLogic must produce audit records containing sufficient information to establish when (date and time) the events occurred.

    Information system auditing capability is critical for accurate forensic analysis. Audit record content that may be necessary to satisfy the requirement of this control includes time stamps, sourc...
