The container platform, for PKI-based authentication, must implement a local cache of revocation data to support path discovery and validation in case of the inability to access revocation information via the network.

STIG ID: SRG-APP-000401-CTR-000965  |  SRG: SRG-APP-000401 |  Severity: medium |  CCI: CCI-004068 |  Vulnerability Id: V-233201

Vulnerability Discussion

The potential of allowing access to users who are no longer authorized (have revoked certificates) increases unless a local cache of revocation data is configured.

Check

Review the container platform configuration.

If the container platform is not implemented to use a local cache of revocation data to support path discovery and validation in case of the inability to access revocation information via the network, this is a finding.

Fix

Configure the container platform to implement a local cache of revocation data to support path discovery and validation in case of the inability to access revocation information via the network.
