DKER-EE-006280 - Docker Enterprise Universal Control Plane (UCP) must be configured to use TLS 1.2.

Information

By default docker UCP is configured to use TLS v1.2, if this setting is misconfigured, older protocols containing security weaknesses could be utilized. TLS requires a handshake between client and server which is where the TLS version utilized in the connection is negotiated. For DoD use cases, all TLS must be at version 1.2.

NOTE: Nessus has not performed this check. Please review the benchmark to ensure target compliance.

Solution

This fix only applies to the UCP component of Docker Enterprise.

via CLI:

Linux (requires curl and jq): As a Docker EE Admin, execute the following commands from a machine that can communicate with the UCP management console. Replace [ucp_url] with the UCP URL, [ucp_username] with the username of a UCP administrator and [ucp_password] with the password of a UCP administrator.

AUTHTOKEN=$(curl -sk -d '{'username':'[ucp_username]','password':'[ucp_password]'}' https://[ucp_url]/auth/login | jq -r .auth_token)
curl -sk -H 'Authorization: Bearer $AUTHTOKEN' https://[ucp_url]/api/ucp/config-toml > ucp-config.toml

Open the 'ucp-config.toml' file under the '[cluster_config]' section set 'min_TLS_version = TLSv1.2'.
Save the file.

Execute the following commands to update UCP with the new configuration:

curl -sk -H 'Authorization: Bearer $AUTHTOKEN' --upload-file ucp-config.toml https://[ucp_url]/api/ucp/config-toml
