Descriptions

In universal forwarder versions before 9.0, management services are available remotely by default. When not required, it introduces a potential exposure, but it is not a vulnerability. If exposed, we recommend each customer assess the potential severity specific to your environment. In 9.0, the universal forwarder now binds the management port to localhost preventing remote logins by default. If management services are not required in versions before 9.0, set disableDefaultPort = true in server.conf OR allowRemoteLogin = never in server.conf OR mgmtHostPort = localhost in web.conf. See Configure universal forwarder management security (https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/9.0.0/Security/EnableTLSCertHostnameValidation#Configure_universal_forwarder_management_security) for more information on disabling the remote management services.

En forwarder universal versiones anteriores a 9.0, los servicios de administración están disponibles de forma remota por defecto. Cuando no es requerido, introduce una exposición potencial, pero no es una vulnerabilidad. Si es expuesta, recomendamos que cada cliente evalúe la gravedad potencial específica de su entorno. En versión 9.0, el reenviador universal vincula ahora el puerto de administración a localhost, lo que impide el inicio de sesión remoto por defecto. Si los servicios de administración no son necesarios en versiones anteriores a 9.0, establezca disableDefaultPort = true en server.conf O allowRemoteLogin = never en server.conf O mgmtHostPort = localhost en web.conf. Consulte Configurar la seguridad de la administración del reenviador universal (https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/9.0.0/Security/EnableTLSCertHostnameValidation#Configure_universal_forwarder_management_security) para obtener más información sobre la deshabilitación de los servicios de administración remota
