Symptoms

 

A security scan may report multiple security alerts during a scan of the PowerStore.

 

Below is a known set of items from a Qualys scan that are relevant to this issue:

QID 38169:  SSL Certificate - Self-Signed Certificate
QID 38170:  SSL Certificate - Subject Common Name Does Not Match Server FQDN
QID 38173:  SSL Certificate - Signature Verification Failed Vulnerability
QID 38685:  SSL Certificate - Invalid Maximum Validity Date Detected

 

 

Cause

 

These alerts show up in the scan due to no Certificate Authority (CA) signed server certificate being present.

Resolution

Create and import a CA signed certificate.

 

To import a CA signed server certificate, follow the steps from the following knowledge article. Be sure to carefully read the limitations associated with some versions, and the steps of the procedure:

Note: When these security alerts are identified, the Certificate Authority (CA) and those who determine the scanning criteria for certificates, must collaborate to ensure that the new CA-signed certificate meets all the parameters required by the security scanning software (Qualys). Otherwise, these types of issues may continue to occur.
