| Description |
|---|
| Overriding the system crypto policy makes the behavior of the Libreswan service violate expectations and makes system configuration more fragmented. |
| ℹ️ Check |
|---|
| Note: If the IPsec service is not installed, this requirement is Not Applicable. Verify that the IPsec service uses the systemwide cryptographic policy with the following command: $ grep include /etc/ipsec.conf /etc/ipsec.d/*.conf /etc/ipsec.conf:include /etc/crypto-policies/back-ends/libreswan.config If the IPsec configuration file does not contain "include /etc/crypto-policies/back-ends/libreswan.config", this is a finding. |
| ✔️ Fix |
|---|
| Configure IPsec to use the systemwide cryptographic policy. Add the following line to "/etc/ipsec.conf": include /etc/crypto-policies/back-ends/libreswan.config |
