MarkLogic Server must generate audit records when privileges/permissions are added.

Description
Changes in the permissions, privileges, and roles granted to users and roles must be tracked. Without an audit trail, unauthorized elevation or restriction of privileges could go undetected. Elevated privileges give users access to information and functionality that they should not have; restricted privileges wrongly deny access to authorized users.

Who does this work

12 NICE work roles and 9 EC-Council certifications.

This is an inference across published mappings, not a single claim by anyone. This check maps to a control, which maps to a Cybersecurity Framework outcome, which NIST assigns to the work roles below. EC-Council separately maps its certifications to those same roles.

A certification prepares someone for a role. It is not evidence that a holder is qualified, and neither NIST nor EC-Council has stated that any certification here addresses this check.

Work-role assignments published by NIST (NICE Framework Components 2.2.0 and the CSF 2.0 OLIR crosswalk). Certification mappings published by EC-Council.

Check Text (C-220394r961800_chk)

Review MarkLogic security and audit configurations to verify that audit records are produced when privileges/permissions/role memberships are added. Perform the check from the MarkLogic Server Admin Interface with a user that holds administrative-level privileges. 1. Click the Groups icon. 2. Click the group in which the configuration to check resides (e.g., Default). 3. Click the Auditing icon on the left tree menu. 4. Inspect the audit enabled field. A value of false means there is no auditing identifying the individual user and this is a finding. 5. If audit enabled field is true, but the user-role-addition event is not selected, this is a finding. 6. Under the Audit Restrictions - Outcome section, verify the security-access event for auditing is set to "both". If the setting is not "both", this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-22098r401634_fix)

Configure MarkLogic to produce audit records when privileges/permissions/role memberships are added. Perform the fix from the MarkLogic Server Admin Interface with a user that holds administrative-level privileges. 1. Click the Groups icon. 2. Click the group in which the configuration to be checked resides (e.g., Default). 3. Click the Auditing icon on the left tree menu. 4. Set the audit enabled field to true. 5. Enable the user-role-addition event for auditing. 6. Enable "both" for the audit restriction under the outcome selection.
