Sid:
2043
--
Summary:
This event is generated when an attempt is made to exploit a known
vulnerability in the Internet Security Association and Key Management
Protocol (ISAKMP).
--
Impact:
Unknown.
--
Detailed Information:
ISAKMP is a framework for authentication using cryptographic keys. It
specifically defines the process of key exchange as opposed to the
generation of a cryptographic key.
ISAKMP also details the procedures for the required security
associations in network security services.
This event indicates that a key exchange using ISAKMP failed.
--
Affected Systems:
All systems using cryptographic key exchange as an authentication
method.
--
Attack Scenarios:
The attacker may have a store of keys associated with valid users and
may attempt to authenticate using a combination of username and key.
--
Ease of Attack:
Simple
--
False Positives:
A user may mistype a username or may be trying to authenticate using an
expired key.
--
False Negatives:
None Known
--
Corrective Action:
Ensure that key exchanges are only allowed between trusted hosts.
Check log files for disallowed login attempts.
