<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The BIG-IP Core implementation must be configured to validate certificates used for TLS functions for connections to virtual servers by constructing a certification path (which includes status information) to an accepted trust anchor.
<VulnDiscussion>A trust anchor is an authoritative entity represented via a public key. Within a chain of trust, the top entity to be trusted...Rule Medium Severity -

The BIG-IP Core implementation providing PKI-based, user authentication intermediary services must be configured to map the authenticated identity to the user account for PKI-based authentication to virtual servers.
<VulnDiscussion>Authorization for access to any network element requires an approved and assigned individual account identifier. To ensure on...Rule Medium Severity -

The BIG-IP Core implementation must be configured to uniquely identify and authenticate non-organizational users (or processes acting on behalf of non-organizational users) when connecting to virtual servers.
<VulnDiscussion>Lack of authentication enables anyone to gain access to the network or possibly a network element that provides opportunity f...Rule Medium Severity -

The BIG-IP Core implementation must terminate all communications sessions at the end of the session or as follows: for in-band management sessions (privileged sessions), the session must be terminated after 10 minutes of inactivity, and for user sessions (nonprivileged sessions), the session must be terminated after 15 minutes of inactivity.
<VulnDiscussion>Terminating an idle session within a short time period reduces the window of opportunity for unauthorized personnel to take c...Rule Medium Severity -

To protect against data mining, the BIG-IP Core implementation must be configured to prevent code injection attacks from being launched against data storage objects, including, at a minimum, databases, database records, queries, and fields when providing content filtering to virtual servers.
<VulnDiscussion>Data mining is the analysis of large quantities of data to discover patterns and is used in intelligence gathering. Failure t...Rule Medium Severity -
