Hello,
We are using the Tenable Infrastructure Vulnerability scanner to scan regularly our complete infrastructure. Tenable reports following findings for the Splunk Server Ports:
https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/31705 SSL Anonymous Cipher Suites Supported
Please find below the plugin output:
The following is a list of SSL anonymous ciphers supported by the remote TCP server :
High Strength Ciphers (>= 112-bit key)
Name Code KEX Auth Encryption MAC
---------------------- ---------- --- ---- --------------------- ---
AECDH-AES128-SHA 0xC0, 0x18 ECDH None AES-CBC(128) SHA1
AECDH-AES256-SHA 0xC0, 0x19 ECDH None AES-CBC(256) SHA1
The fields above are :
{Tenable ciphername}
{Cipher ID code}
Kex={key exchange}
Auth={authentication}
Encrypt={symmetric encryption method}
MAC={message authentication code}
{export flag}
Could you please advise how to adjust the SSL Splunk configuration to fix this issue? Can this be fixed by setting certain value to cipherSuite in server.conf?
The above issue is reported for the ports (2)8191 and (2)8089.
Our server.conf (local) looks as follows:
[kvstore]
port = 28191
[license]
master_uri = https://splunk-license.xxx.corp:443
# Workaround to overcome the connection issues to the license server
[sslConfig]
# To address Vulnerability Scan:
# https://serverfault.com/questions/1034107/how-to-configure-ssl-certificates-for-splunk-on-port-8089
sslVersions = tls1.2
sslVersionsForClient = *,-ssl2
enableSplunkdSSL = true
serverCert = /etc/apache2/splunk.pem
# Workaround to overcome the connection issues to the license server
cipherSuite = TLSv1+HIGH:TLSv1.2+HIGH:@STRENGTH
# To address Vulnerability Scan:
# https://community.splunk.com/t5/Archive/Splunk-shows-vulnerable-to-CVE-2012-4929-in-my-Nessus/m-p/29...
allowSslCompression = false
useClientSSLCompression = false
useSplunkdClientSSLCompression = false
sslPassword = xxx
[general]
pass4SymmKey = xxx
trustedIP = 127.0.0.1
The cipherSuite in server.conf (default) looks as follows:
sslVersions = tls1.2
cipherSuite = ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-SHA384:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA384:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-SHA256:ECDHE-RSA-AES128-SHA256
ecdhCurves = prime256v1, secp384r1, secp521r1
Could you please advice?
Kind regards,
Kamil
