TOSS must map the authenticated identity to the user or group account for PKI-based authentication.

An XCCDF Rule

Description

<VulnDiscussion>Without mapping the certificate used to authenticate to the user account, the ability to determine the identity of the individual user or group will not be available for forensic analysis. There are various methods of mapping certificates to user/group accounts for TOSS. For the purposes of this requirement, the check and fix will account for Active Directory mapping. Some of the other possible methods include joining the system to a domain and utilizing a TOSS idM server, or a local system mapping, where the system is not part of a domain.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>

Remediation - Manual Procedure

Configure TOSS to map the authenticated identity to the user or group account by adding or modifying the certmap section of the "/etc/sssd/sssd.conf" file based on the following example:

[certmap/testing.test/rule_name]
matchrule =<SAN>.*EDIPI@mil
maprule = (userCertificate;binary={cert!bin})
