Title

RHEL 10 must use FIPS 140-3-approved cryptographic algorithms for IP tunnels.

Control

Note: If the IPsec service is not installed, this requirement is not applicable. Verify RHEL 10 sets the IPsec service to use the systemwide cryptographic policy with the following command: $ sudo 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.

Discussion

Overriding the systemwide cryptographic policy makes the behavior of the Libreswan service violate expectations and makes system configuration more fragmented.

Fix

Configure RHEL 10 so that Libreswan uses the systemwide cryptographic policy. Add the following line to "/etc/ipsec.conf": include /etc/crypto-policies/back-ends/libreswan.config
