Description
Without configuring a local cache of revocation data, there is the potential to allow access to users who are no longer authorized (users with revoked certificates).

Check Text (C-270738r1066703_chk)

Note: If smart card authentication is not being used on the system, this is not applicable. Verify Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, for PKI-based authentication, uses local revocation data when unable to access it from the network with the following command: $ grep cert_policy /etc/pam_pkcs11/pam_pkcs11.conf | grep -E -- 'crl_auto|crl_offline' cert_policy = ca,signature,ocsp_on,crl_auto; If "cert_policy" is not set to include "crl_auto" or "crl_offline", this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-74672r1066702_fix)

Configure Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, for PKI-based authentication, to use local revocation data when unable to access the network to obtain it remotely. Add or update the "cert_policy" option in "/etc/pam_pkcs11/pam_pkcs11.conf" to include "crl_auto" or "crl_offline". cert_policy = ca,signature,ocsp_on, crl_auto; If the system is missing an "/etc/pam_pkcs11/" directory and an "/etc/pam_pkcs11/pam_pkcs11.conf", find an example to copy into place and modify accordingly at "/usr/share/doc/libpam-pkcs11/examples/pam_pkcs11.conf.example.gz".
