CAPKI (Previously known as ETPKI) is a C language-based Software Development Kit (SDK) that provides CA Development Community with features required to implement Information Security services in its products. CAPKI is a wrapper on OpenSSL which is robust, commercial-grade, and full-featured toolkit for the Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocols.
NOTE: SiteMinder r12.9 Access Gateway Server uses CAPKI 6. For CAPKI 6 on SiteMinder 12.9 use KB 453050 Vulnerability in OpenSSL 3.0.20 in CAPKI 6.0.3 and older on SiteMinder Access Gateway Server 12.9
Environment
PRODUCT: Symantec SiteMinder
COMPONENT: Access Gateway Server
VERSION: r12.8.8.1 and Older
OPERATING SYSTEM: Windows and Linux
Cause
CAPKI (Previously known as ETPKI) is a wrapper on OpenSSL. CAPKI 5.2.x is built with OpenSSL 1.0.2.
The SiteMinder Access Gateway Server ships with the following versions of CAPKI:
SiteMinder Access Gateway Server 12.8.7 uses CAPKI 5.2.11 which uses OpenSSL 1.0.2zf
SiteMinder Access Gateway Server12.8.8 uses CAPKI 5.2.13 which uses OpenSSL 1.0.2zi
SiteMinder Access Gateway Server12.8.8.1 uses CAPKI 5.2.13 which uses OpenSSL 1.0.2zj
KB427910 (archived) delivered CAPKI 5.2.16
KB409256 (archived) delivered CAPKI 5.2.17
KB441106 (archived) delivered CAPKI 5.2.18
CAPKI 5.2.18 and older are compiled with versions of OpenSSL 1.0.2zp and older which have vulnerabilities (CVE's) published.
Resolution
Upgrade to CAPKI 5.2.20 on the SiteMinder Access Gateway using this KB.
CAPKI 5.2.20 has been compiled with OpenSSL 1.0.2zq.
This solution applies to the following SiteMinder Access Gateway Server versions:
- r12.8.8.1 and older
LINUX
1) Download "etpki-install_5_2_20_linux.zip" from this KB.
2) Copy "etpki-install_5_2_20_linux.zip" to the SiteMinder Access Gateway Server on Linux and decompress it. This will create the directory /etpki-install/ in the same directory you placed "etpki-install_5_2_20_linux.zip"
3) Run the Access Gateway environment variable scripts
cd /<Install_Dir>/CA/secure-proxy
. ./ca_sps_env.sh
4) Verify the Access Gateway environment variables
echo $NETE_SPS_ROOT
echo $CAPKIHOME
5) Stop the Access Gateway Server
6) Change to the following directory:
cd $NETE_SPS_ROOT/agentframework/
7) Backup the '/CAPKI/' directory by renaming it '/CAPKI.BAK'
mv CAPKI CAPKI.BAK
8) Copy the '/etpki-install/' directory from "etpki-install_5_2_20_linux.zip" to $NETE_SPS_ROOT/agentframework/
9) Change to the following directory:
cd $NETE_SPS_ROOT/agentframework/etpki-install/redistrib/
10) Ensure the user has execute permissions on the installation media (setup)
11) Run the following command:
./setup install caller=sps12 instdir=$NETE_SPS_ROOT/agentframework/
12) Verify/Modify the $CAPKIHOME variable in the environment variable script:
/<Install_Dir>/CA/secure-proxy/ca_sps_env.sh
CAPKIHOME=$NETE_SPS_ROOT/agentframework/CAPKI
export CAPKIHOME
13) Run the updated Access Gateway Environment variable script.
cd /<Install_Dir>/CA/secure-proxy/
. ./ca_sps_env.sh
14) Start the Access Gateway Server
15) Validate Access Gateway Server functionality
16) Delete the following files:
$NETE_SPS_ROOT/agentframework/CAPKI.BAK
17) Check for the to the following directories:
/<Install_Dir>/CA/SharedComponents/CAPKI
/<Install_Dir>/CA/SC/CAPKI
NOTE: These directories may not exist in your system. If they do, you will need to determine which application is using them. If there are no other applications using these CAPKI instances, then they can be removed.
Siteminder Default: <Install_Dir>/CA/secure-proxy/agentframework/CAPKI
Directory Server Default: <Install_Dir>/CA/Directory/dxserver/lib/capki/
WINDOWS
1) Download "etpki-install_5_2_20_win64.zip" from this KB.
2) Copy "etpki-install_5_2_20_win64.zip" to the Access Gateway Server on Windows and decompress it. This will create the directory 'etpki-install' in the same directory you placed "etpki-install_5_2_20_win64.zip"
3) Stop the Access Gateway Server
4) Change to the following directory:
<Drive>:\<Install_Dir>\CA\secure-proxy\agentframework\ETPKI\
5) Backup the '\CAPKI\' directory by renaming it '\CAPKI.BAK\'
ren CAPKI CAPKI.BAK
6) Copy the 'etpki-install' directory from "etpki-install_5_2_20_win64.zip" to <Drive>:\<Install_Dir>\CA\secure-proxy\agentframework\ETPKI\
7) Open a command prompt using cmd.exe as an administrator (Run As Administrator)
8) Change to the following directory:
<Drive>:\<Install_Dir>\CA\secure-proxy\
9) Run the SiteMinder Access Gateway environment variable script
ca_sps_env.bat
10) Change to the following directory:
<Drive>:\<Install_Dir>\CA\secure-proxy\agentframework\ETPKI\etpki-install\redistrib\
11) Run the following command:
setup.exe install caller=sps12 instdir="%NETE_SPS_ROOT%\agentframework\install\"
NOTE: This will create the following directories:
'<Drive>:\<Install_Dir>\CA\secure-proxy\agentframework\ETPKI\CAPKI\CAPKI6\Windows\amd64\64\
12) Start the Access Gateway Server
13) Validate Access Gateway Server functionality
14) Delete the following files:
<Drive>:\<Install_Dir>\CA\secure-proxy\agentframework\ETPKI\CAPKI.BAK
15) Check for the to the following directories:
<Install_Dir>\CA\SharedComponents\CAPKI
<Install_Dir>\CA\SC\CAPKI
NOTE: These directories may not exist in your system. If they do, you will need to determine which application is using them. If there are no other applications using these CAPKI instances, then they can be removed.
SiteMinder Access Gateway Default: <Install_Dir>\CA\secure-prox\agentframework\CAPKI
