For nonlocal maintenance sessions, the Juniper SRX Services Gateway must explicitly deny the use of J-Web.

An XCCDF Rule

Description

<VulnDiscussion>If unsecured functions (lacking FIPS-validated cryptographic mechanisms) are used for management sessions, the contents of those sessions are susceptible to manipulation, potentially allowing alteration and hijacking. J-Web (configured using the system services web-management option) does not meet the DoD requirement for management tools. It also does not work with all Juniper SRX hardware. By default, the web interface is disabled; however, it is easily enabled.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
