1.85 RHEL-10-300080

Information

RHEL 10 must implement DOD-approved encryption in the bind package.

GROUP ID: V-281015RULE ID: SV-281015r1184783

Without cryptographic integrity protections, information can be altered by unauthorized users without detection.

Cryptographic mechanisms used for protecting the integrity of information include, for example, signed hash functions using asymmetric cryptography enabling distribution of the public key to verify the hash information while maintaining the confidentiality of the secret key used to generate the hash.

RHEL 10 incorporates systemwide crypto policies by default. The employed algorithms can be viewed in the "/etc/crypto-policies/back-ends/" directory.

Satisfies: SRG-OS-000423-GPOS-00187, SRG-OS-000426-GPOS-00190

Solution

Configure RHEL 10 BIND to use the systemwide cryptographic policy.

Add the following line to the "options" section in "/etc/named.conf":

include "/etc/crypto-policies/back-ends/bind.config";
