Introduction GFI LanGuard
1.3 GFI LanGuard components
GFI LanGuard‟s architecture is designed for performance reliability and scalability, which caters for medium to large networks.
GFI LanGuard consists of the following components:
GFI LanGuard management console
The management console enables you to configure and use GFI LanGuard 2011. It also enables you to analyze audit results.
GFI LanGuard attendant service
GFI LanGuard attendant is the background service that manages all scheduled operations including scheduled network security scans, patch deployment and remediation operations.
GFI LanGuard agent deployment
GFI LanGuard provides you with the facility to use agents. These enable real time result analysis and reduce network bandwidth consumption. Depending on how you configure GFI
LanGuard, agents are deployed automatically on newly discovered machines or on manually selected computers. For more information on GFI LanGuard Agents, refer to
Managing Agents chapter in this manual.
GFI LanGuard patch agent service
GFI LanGuard patch agent is the background service that handles the deployment of patches, service packs and software updates on target computers.
GFI LanGuard Script Debugger
The GFI LanGuard Script Debugger is the module that allows you to write and debug custom scripts using a VBScript–compatible language.
Screenshot 1 – GFI LanGuard script debugger
Use this module to create scripts for custom vulnerability checks through which you can custom scan network targets for specific vulnerabilities.
GFI LanGuard script debugger is accessible from Start ► Programs ► GFI LanGuard 2011
► GFI LanGuard Script Debugger.

1.4 Vulnerability management strategy
GFI recommends you to follow the sequence below for an effective vulnerability management strategy:
1. Configure Agents – For more information, refer to Managing Agents section in this
manual.
2. Analyze – For more information, refer to Analyzing results section in this manual.
3. Remediate - For more information, refer to Fixing vulnerabilities section in this manual.
Using agents is highly recommended because they provide real–time result analysis and reduce network bandwidth consumption. Agent–less audit is also available in GFI LanGuard. This enables you to perform audits manually or repeatedly on a schedule. For more information on Agent–less auditing, refer to
Agent–less auditing section in this manual.
Important notes
1. In most cases, vulnerability scans generate different event log entries across diverse systems. Example, UNIX logs and web server logs will all detect GFI LanGuard scans as intrusion attempts triggered from the computer running GFI LanGuard.
2. For large network environments, a Microsoft SQL Server/MSDE database backend is recommended instead of the Microsoft Access database. For more information on how to
configure the database backend, refer to Selecting a database backend section in this
manual.
3. When submitting a list of target computers from file, ensure that file contains only one target computer name per line.
If Intrusion Detection Software (IDS) is running during an audit, GFI LanGuard will set off a multitude of IDS warnings and intrusion alerts in these applications. If you are not responsible for the IDS system, make sure to inform the person in charge about any planned security audits.
To perform an audit, GFI LanGuard must remotely logon to target computers with administrator privileges.
Agent deployment can only be done on Microsoft Windows operating systems.

3 Agent-less Auditing
3.1 Introduction
Agent–less auditing is the process of performing audits on target computers without using agents. Two types of audits can be done using this approach:
»
Manual audits – Perform audits on target computer(s) once.
»
Scheduled audits – Perform audits on a target computer(s) repeatedly on a schedule.
On completion of an agent–less audit, GFI LanGuard enables you to analyze the audit results. This section provides information on how to configure manual audits, scheduled audits and analyze the results. For more information on how to analyze results, refer to
and Audit Result Details sections in this manual.
3.2 Performing a manual audit
An effective audit can be done in three steps such as:
»
Configure scan properties – configure scan targets and any relative properties required to scan the networked computers.
»
Analyze scan results – identify the main network vulnerabilities discovered and the scan targets that require immediate attention.
»
Remediate vulnerabilities – implement patches, service packs or fixes to the scanned targets.

3.5.1 Vulnerability level rating
The vulnerability level is a rating given by GFI LanGuard to each computer after it is scanned. The rating indicates the vulnerability level of a computer/network, depending on the number and type of vulnerabilities and/or missing patches found.
Screenshot 20 – Vulnerability level meter
High vulnerability ratings are the result of identified vulnerabilities and /or missing patches that are classified as high risk.
When a number of computers are scanned in a single audit session, a measurement of the global vulnerability level is based on a weighted sum of the vulnerabilities detected on the computers scanned.
The Vulnerability level is indicated using color–coded graphical bar. A red colour–code indicates a high vulnerability level, while a green colour–code indicates a low vulnerability level.

Potential vulnerabilities
Select Potential vulnerabilities sub–node to view scan result items classified as possible network weaknesses. Although not classified as vulnerabilities, these scan result entries still require particular attention since malicious users can exploit them during malicious activity.
For example, during vulnerability scanning GFI LanGuard enumerates all modems installed and configured on target computers. If unused, modems are of no threat to your network.
If connected to a telephone line these modems can however be used to gain unauthorized and unmonitored access to the Internet. Users can potentially bypass corporate perimeter security including firewalls, anti–virus, website rating and web content blocking. This exposes the corporate IT infrastructure to a wide range of threats including hacker attacks.
GFI LanGuard considers installed modems as possible threats and enumerates them in the
Potential Vulnerabilities sub–node.

Security audit policy
An important part of any security plan is the ability to monitor and audit events on your network. These event logs are frequently referenced to identify security holes or breaches.
Identifying attempts and preventing them from becoming successful breaches of your system security is critical. In Windows, you can use „Group Policies‟ to set up an audit policy that can track user activities or system events in specific logs.
To keep track of your system auditing policy, GFI LanGuard collects the security audit policy settings from target computers and includes them in the scan result. To access more information on the result click on Security Audit Policy sub–node.
Apart from gaining knowledge on the current audit policy settings, you can also use GFI
LanGuard to access and modify the audit policy settings of your target computers. To achieve this:
1. From the Scan Results Overview panel, right–click on the respective target computer and select Enable auditing on ► This computer/Selected computers/All computers.

Groups/users
Rogue, outdated or default user accounts can be exploited by malicious or unauthorized users to gain access to restricted areas of your IT infrastructure. The „Guest‟ account for example is just one commonly exploited accounts; more often than not, this account is left configured within a system and even worse without changing the default password settings. Malicious users have developed applications that can automatically re–enable the
„Guest‟ account and grant it administrative rights. This empowers users to gain access to sensitive areas of the corporate IT infrastructure.
GFI LanGuard collects information on all user accounts and user groups currently enabled on scanned targets. This information is organized in the scan results under two separated nodes. To access the list of user accounts identified during on a target computer, click
Users sub–node. Use the information enumerated in this sub–node to inspect the access privileges assigned to each user account. To gain access to the list of user–groups configured on a target computer, click Groups sub–node.
Users should not use local accounts to log on to a network computer. For better security, users should log on to network computers using a „Domain‟ or an „Active
Directory‟ account.
Sessions
Click Sessions sub–node to access the list of hosts that were remotely connected to the target computer during scanning.
The information included in this sub–node also includes the remote connection details of the scanning sessions just performed by GFI LanGuard. For example, the IP of the computer running LanGuard, logon credentials and other related information.
Services
Active services can be a potential security weak spot in your network system. Any of these services can be a Trojan, a virus or another type of malware, that can seriously affect your system in a dangerous way. Furthermore, unnecessary applications and services that are left running on a system consume valuable system resources.
During the scanning process, GFI LanGuard enumerates all services running on a target computer for you to analyze. This way you can identify the services to stop. Further to the freeing up of resources, this exercise automatically hardens your network by reducing the entry points through which an attacker can penetrate into your system. To access the list of services enumerated during a scan, click Services sub–node.

5 Fixing Vulnerabilities
5.1 Introduction
GFI LanGuard enables you to automatically fix some of the issues identified during your network audit using the built–in tools that ship with the product. Available actions include:
Table 24 – Automatic remediation actions
O
PTION
Auto–patch management
Applications auto–uninstall
D
ESCRIPTION
Downloads missing updates and deploys them over the network.
Auto–uninstall of applications that support silent uninstall. The process involves a test phase (called validation) during which an application is uninstalled automatically to identify if silent uninstall is supported by target application. If it is, all the other instances on the network are automatically uninstalled during a scan.
5.2 Automatic-Remediation
Automatic-Remediation enables you to automatically download and deploy missing patches as well as uninstall unauthorized applications during scheduled operations.
To uninstall software, a 3–stage process is required in order to identify whether the selected application supports silent uninstall:
Table 25 – Automatic remediation stages
S
TAGE
D
ESCRIPTION
Stage 1
Select the application to auto–uninstall.
Stage 2
Stage 3
Ensure that application supports silent uninstall. Test this by trying to remotely uninstall the application. This is the validation process.
Setup a scheduled audit that will remove the unauthorized application. This is done automatically (using agents) or manually (agent–less approach).
Auto–remediation and un–installation of un–authorized applications only work with scanning profiles that detect missing patches and/or Installed applications.
Always test patches in a test environment before deployment.
By default, Microsoft updates are not enabled for automatic deployment. Manually approve each patch (as it is tested) or set all
Microsoft updates as approved.
5.2.1 Automatically deploy missing updates
To deploy missing patches automatically, follow the instructions below before configuring a scan with auto–remediation options.
Approve the patches to deploy automatically
1. From the Configuration tab, navigate to Security Updates ► Patch Auto–Deployment.
2. Select the patches to approve for auto–deployment. Optionally, set the automatic patch approval options by selecting To automatically approve patches and/or service packs,
click here option. For more information, refer to the Auto–deployment settings section in

Fixing Vulnerabilities GFI LanGuard
5.3 Remediation center
Apart from automatically downloading patches and service packs, GFI LanGuard can also deploy these updates network–wide as well as recall any patches that were deployed.
While an infrequent occurrence, patches may be recalled due to newly discovered vulnerabilities or problems caused by the installation of these updates such as conflict issues with present software or hardware. Examples of updates recalled by the manufacturer include patches MS03–045 and MS03–047 for
Exchange that were released by Microsoft on October 15, 2006.
Both patch deployment and patch rollback operations are managed by an agent service that manages all file transfers between GFI LanGuard and remote targets. This service is installed automatically on the remote target computer during the patch deployment process.
The Remediation Center enables you to fix security issues found during a network scan by deploying or uninstalling applications from target machines. To access the Remediation
Center, select Remediate tab ► Remediation Center.
To deploy missing patches on scan targets, ensure that GFI LanGuard is running under an account that has administrative privileges.

GFI LanGuard ships with a set of database maintenance options through which you can maintain your scan results database backend in good shape.
For example, you can improve product performance and prevent your scan results database backend from getting excessively large by automatically deleting scan results that are older than a specific number of months.
If you are using a Microsoft Access database backend, you can also schedule database compaction. Compaction enables you to repair any corrupted data and to delete database records marked for deletion in your database backend; ensuring the integrity of your scan results database.
6.6.1 Selecting a database backend
GFI LanGuard supports both Microsoft Access and Microsoft SQL Server (2000 or higher) based database backend.
Storing scan results in a MS Access database backend

If the specified server and credentials are correct, GFI LanGuard will automatically log on to your SQL Server and create the necessary database tables. If the database tables already exist, it will re–use them.
When using NT authority credentials, make sure that GFI LanGuard services are running under an account that has both access and administrative privileges on the SQL Server databases.
6.6.2 Managing saved scan results
Use the Saved Scan Results tab to maintain your database backend and delete saved scan results that are no longer required. Deletion of non–required saved scan results can be achieved manually as well as automatically through scheduled database maintenance.
During scheduled database maintenance, GFI LanGuard automatically deletes saved scan results that are older than a specific number of days/weeks or months. You can also configure automated database maintenance to retain only a specific number of recent scan results for every scan target and scan profile.
Screenshot 93 – Database maintenance properties: Managed saved scan results tab
To manage saved scan results:
1. Click on the Configuration tab ► Database Maintenance Options ► Manage saved

6.6.4 Database maintenance: Advanced options
GFI LanGuard enables you to repair and compact the Microsoft Access database backend automatically to improve performance.
During compaction, the database files are reorganized and records that have been marked for deletion are removed. In this way, you can regain used storage space. During this process, GFI LanGuard also repairs corrupted database backend files. Corruption may occur for various reasons. In most cases, a Microsoft Access database is corrupted when the database is unexpectedly closed before records are saved (for example, due to a power failure, unresponsive operations forced reboots, and so on).

8 Scanning Profiles
8.1 Introduction
GFI LanGuard enables you to scan your IT infrastructure for particular vulnerabilities using pre–configured sets of checks known as scanning profiles. Scanning profiles enable you to scan your network targets and enumerate only specific information. For example, you may want to use a scanning profile that is set to be used when scanning the computers in your
DMZ as opposed to your internal network.
In practice, scanning profiles enable you to focus your vulnerability scanning efforts on to a specific area of your IT infrastructure such as identifying only missing security updates.
The benefit is that you have less scan results data to analyze; tightening up the scope of your investigation and quickly locate the information that you require more easily.
Through multiple scanning profiles, you can perform various network security audits without having to go through a reconfiguration process for every type of security scan required.
8.2 Scanning profile description
Out of the box, GFI LanGuard includes an extensive list of scanning profiles as described below.

9.5 Enumerate computers
Screenshot 140 – Enumerate Computers tool
The enumerate computers utility identifies domains and workgroups on a network. During execution, this tool will also scan each domain/workgroup discovered so to enumerate their respective computers.
The information enumerated by this tool includes:
»
The domain or workgroup name
»
The list of domain/workgroup computers
»
The operating system installed on the discovered computers
»
Any additional details that might be collected through NetBIOS
Computers are enumerated using one of the following methods:
»
From Active Directory – This method is much faster and will include computers that are currently switched off.
»
From Windows Explorer – This method enumerates computers through a real–time network scan and therefore it is slower and will not include computers that are switched off.
To enumerate computers:
1. Launch GFI LanGuard management console from Start ► Programs ► GFI LanGuard
2011 ► GFI LanGuard 2011.
2. Click Utilities tab and select Enumerate Computers in the left pane under Tools.

Using GFI LanGuard from the command line GFI LanGuard
11 Adding vulnerability checks
11.1 Introduction
Scripts that identify custom vulnerabilities can be created using any VBScript compatible scripting language. By default, GFI LanGuard ships with a script editor that you can use to create your custom scripts.
New checks must be included in the list of checks supported by GFI LanGuard. Use the
Vulnerability Assessment tab to add new checks to the default list of vulnerability checks on a scan profile by scan profile basis.
GFI LanGuard also supports Python scripting. For more information on GFI LanGuard Python scripting, refer to this section in this manual.
Only expert users should create new vulnerability checks. Scripting errors and wrong configurations in a vulnerability check can result in false positives or provide no vulnerability information at all.
11.2 GFI LanGuard VBscript language
GFI LanGuard supports and runs scripts written in VBscript compatible languages. Use
VBscript compatible languages to create custom scripts that can be run against your network targets.
Security auditing scripts can be developed using the script editor that ships with GFI
LanGuard. This built–in script editor includes syntax highlighting capabilities as well as debugging features that support you during script development. Open the script editor from Start ► Programs ► GFI LanGuard 2011 ► LanGuard Script Debugger.
For more information on how to develop scripts using the built–in script editor, refer to the Scripting documentation help file included in Start ► Programs ►
GFI LanGuard 2011 ► LanGuard Scripting documentation.
GFI does not support requests related to problems in custom scripts. You can post any queries that you may have about GFI LanGuard forums at http://forums.gfi.com/ . Through this forum, you are able to share scripts, problems and ideas with other GFI LanGuard users.
11.2.1 Adding a vulnerability check that uses a custom VB (.vbs) script
To create new vulnerability checks that use custom VBscripts:
»
Step 1: Create the script.
»
Step 2: Add the new vulnerability check.
The following are examples of how this is done.

Screenshot 146 – The check triggering conditions dialog
7. Select Independent checks ► VBScript node and click Next button to continue setup.
8. Click Choose file and select the custom VBscript file that will be executed by this check (For this example select „myscript.vbs‟). Click Next to proceed.
9. Select the relative condition setup in the wizard to finalize script selection. Click Finish to exit wizard.
10. Click OK to save new vulnerability check.
Testing the vulnerability check/script used in example
Scan your local host computer using the scanning profile where the new check was added.
In Scan tab ► Results, a vulnerability warning will be shown in the Vulnerability
Assessment node of the scan results.
11.3 GFI LanGuard SSH Module
GFI LanGuard includes an SSH module which handles the execution of vulnerability scripts on Linux/UNIX based systems.
The SSH module determines the result of vulnerability checks through the console (text) data produced by an executed script. This means that you can create custom Linux/UNIX
GFI LanGuard Adding vulnerability checks
|
155
vulnerability checks using any scripting method that is supported by the target operating system.
11.3.1 Keywords
The SSH module can run security scanning scripts through its terminal window. When a security scan is launched on Linux/UNIX based target computers, vulnerability checking scripts are copied through an SSH connection to the respective target computer and run locally.
The SSH connection is established using the logon credentials (i.e. username and password/SSH Private Key file) specified prior to the start of a security scan.
The SSH module can determine the status of a vulnerability check through specific keywords present in the text output of the executed script. These keywords are processed by the module and interpreted as instruction for the GFI LanGuard. Standard keywords identified by the SSH module include:
»
TRUE:
»
FALSE:
»
AddListItem
»
SetDescription
»
!!SCRIPT_FINISHED!!
Each of these keywords triggers an associated and specific process in the SSH Module. The function of each keyword is described below:
»
TRUE: / FALSE: – These strings indicate the result of the executed vulnerability check/script. When the SSH module detects a TRUE: it means that the check was successful; FALSE: indicates that the vulnerability check has failed.
»
AddListItem – This string triggers an internal function that adds results to the vulnerability check report (i.e. scan results). These results are shown in the GFI
LanGuard 2011 management console after completion of a scan. This string is formatted as follows:
»
AddListItem([[[[parent node]]]],[[[[actual string]]]])
»
[[[[parent node]]]] – Includes the name of the scan results node to which the result will be added.
»
[[[[actual string]]]] – Includes the value that will be added to the scan results node.
Each vulnerability check is bound to an associated scan result node. This means that „AddListItem‟ results are by default included under an associated/default vulnerability node. In this way, if the parent node parameter is left empty, the function will add the specified string to the default node.
»
SetDescription – This string triggers an internal function that will overwrite the default description of a vulnerability check with a new description. This string is formatted as follows: SetDescription([New description])
»
!!SCRIPT_FINISHED!! – This string marks the end of every script execution. The SSH module will keep looking for this string until it is found or until a timeout occurs. If a timeout occurs before the „!!SCRIPT_FINISHED!!‟ string is generated, the SSH module will classify the respective vulnerability check as failed.
It is imperative that every custom script outputs the „!!SCRIPT_FINISHED!!‟ string at the very end of its checking process

12 GFI LanGuard certifications
12.1 Introduction
GFI LanGuard is OVAL and CVE certified.
12.2 About OVAL
Open Vulnerability and Assessment Language (OVAL™) is an international, information security, community standard to promote open and publicly available security content, and to standardize the transfer of this information across the entire spectrum of security tools and services. OVAL includes a language used to encode system details, and an assortment of content repositories held throughout the OVAL community. The language standardizes the three main steps of the assessment process:
»
Representing configuration information of systems for testing
»
Analyzing the system for the presence of the specified machine state (vulnerability, configuration, patch state, etc.)
»
Reporting the results of this assessment.
»
The repositories are collections of publicly available and open content that utilize the language.
The OVAL community has developed three XML schemas to serve as the framework and vocabulary of the OVAL Language. These schemas correspond to the three steps of the assessment process:
»
An OVAL System Characteristics schema for representing system information
»
An OVAL Definition schema for expressing a specific machine state
»
An OVAL Results schema for reporting the results of an assessment
Content written in OVAL Language is located in one of .the many repositories found within the community. One such repository, known as the OVAL Repository, is hosted by MITRE
Corporation. It is the central meeting place for the OVAL Community to discuss, analyze, store, and disseminate OVAL Definitions. Each definition in the OVAL Repository determines whether a specified software vulnerability, configuration issue, program, or patch is present on a system.
The information security community contributes to the development of OVAL by participating in the creation of the OVAL Language on the OVAL Developers Forum and by writing definitions for the OVAL Repository through the OVAL Community Forum. An OVAL
Board consisting of representatives from a broad spectrum of industry, academia, and government organizations from around the world oversees and approves the OVAL
Language and monitors the posting of the definitions hosted on the OVAL Web site. This means that the OVAL, which is funded by US–CERT at the U.S. Department of Homeland
Security for the benefit of the community, reflects the insights and combined expertise of the broadest possible collection of security and system administration professionals worldwide.

12.2.1 GFI LanGuard OVAL Support
GFI LanGuard supports all checks defined in the XML file issued by OVAL, with the exception of HP–UX checks.
GFI LanGuard does not support HP–UX based machines and therefore it is beyond the scope of this product to include these checks within its check definition database.
12.2.2 About OVAL Compatibility
OVAL Compatibility is a program established to develop consistency within the security community regarding the use and implementation of OVAL. The main goal of the compatibility program is to create a set of guidelines that will help enforce a standard implementation. An offshoot of this is that users are able to distinguish between, and have confidence in, compatible products knowing that the implementation of OVAL coincides with the standard set forth.
For a product or service to gain official OVAL Compatibility, it must adhere to the
Requirements and Recommendations for OVAL Compatibility and complete the formal
OVAL Compatibility Process.
OVAL Compatibility means that GFI LanGuard incorporates OVAL in a pre–defined, standard way and uses OVAL for communicating details of vulnerabilities, patches, security configuration settings, and other machine states.
12.2.3 Submitting OVAL listing error reports
Any issues with the GFI LanGuard or the listing of the OVAL checks included with GFI
LanGuard should be reported to GFI through its official support lines. Refer to the
Troubleshooting section within this manual for more information regarding email, phone or
web forum support channels.
GFI Software Ltd will endeavor to look into any issues reported and if any inconsistency or error is ascertained, it will issue updates to fix such issues. Vulnerability check updates are usually released on monthly basis.
12.3 About CVE
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures) is a list of standardized names for vulnerabilities and other information security exposures. Its aim is to standardize the names for all publicly known vulnerabilities and security exposures.
CVE is a dictionary which aim is to facilitate data distribution across separate vulnerability databases and security tools. CVE makes searching for information in other databases easier and should not be considered as a vulnerability database by itself.
CVE is a maintained through a community–wide collaborative effort known as the CVE
Editorial Board. The Editorial Board includes representatives from numerous security– related organizations such as security tool vendors, academic institutions, and governments as well as other prominent security experts. The MITRE Corporation maintains
CVE and moderates editorial board discussions.
12.3.1 About CVE Compatibility
"CVE–compatible" means that a tool, Web site, database, or service uses CVE names in a way that allows it to cross–link with other repositories that use CVE names. CVE– compatible products and services must meet the four requirements:
162
|
GFI LanGuard certifications GFI LanGuard
CVE Searchable: A user must be able to search for vulnerabilities and related information using the CVE name.
CVE Output: Information provided must include the related CVE name(s).
Mapping: The repository owner must provide a mapping relative to a specific version of
CVE, and must make a good faith effort to ensure accuracy of that mapping.
Documentation: The organization‟s standard documentation must include a description of
CVE, CVE compatibility, and the details of how its customers can use the CVE–related functionality of its product or service.
For an in–depth understanding of CVE compatibility refer to the complete list of
CVE requirements available at: http://cve.mitre.org/compatible/requirements.html
12.3.2 About CVE and CAN
CVE names (also called "CVE numbers," "CVE–IDs," and "CVEs") are unique, common identifiers for publicly known information security vulnerabilities. CVE names have "entry" or "candidate" status. Entry status indicates that the CVE name has been accepted to the
CVE List while candidate status (also called "candidates," "candidate numbers," or "CANs") indicates that the name is under review for inclusion in the list.
Each CVE name includes the following:
»
CVE identifier number (i.e. "CVE–1999–0067").
»
Indication of "entry" or "candidate" status.
»
Brief description of the security vulnerability or exposure.
»
Any pertinent references (i.e., vulnerability reports and advisories or OVAL–ID).
For an in–depth understanding of CVE names and CANs, refer to: http://cve.mitre.org/cve/identifiers/index.html
12.3.3 Searching for CVE entries in GFI LanGuard
CVE entries can be searched from the Scanning profiles node within the Configuration tab.
Screenshot 149 – Searching for CVE information
To search for a particular CVE bulletin:
1. Specify the bulletin name (for example, CVE–2005–2126) in the search tool entry box included at the bottom of the right pane.
2. Click on Find to start searching for your entry.
12.3.4 Obtaining CVE names
CVE entry names can be obtained through the GFI LanGuard user interface from within the
Scanning profiles node within the Configuration tab. By default, the CVE ID is displayed for all the vulnerabilities that have a CVE ID.
