PAM Jump Server Installation

The purpose of this tutorial is to show how to install Jump servers and configure PAM using Dockers, to use critical resources without knowing the password required.

Jump Server

A jump server, jump host or jump box is a system on a network used to access and manage devices in a separate security zone. A jump server is a hardened and monitored device that spans two dissimilar security zones and provides a controlled means of access between them. (*)

From version 1.4.36 and higher, Soffid PAM Launcher and Store installs allowing only TLSv1.3 protocol.

Prerequisites

Prerequisites to install PAM using Dockers:

1. Install docker ( https://docs.docker.com/install/ )

2. Create a Docker network(*), that network allows you to connect containers to the same bridge network to communicate:

sudo docker network create -d bridge NETWORKNAME

*  You can use the same network defined in the Console and Sync Server installation to avoid visibility problems.

Screen overview

Installation

The steps required to install PAM are:

  1. Create the storage server container.
  2. Create the launcher container.
  3. Register storage server in Soffid console.

Fast path to create storage server and launcher containers

1. To create both containers, you can download the following script: install-pam.sh

2. Before installing, you have to edit the file and set the name of the new network you have created, and the latest versions of the store and launcher

.........
docker create \
  --network soffid \
  -v soffid-pam-store:/opt/soffid/tomee/data \
  -p 8081:8080 \
  --name soffid-pam-store \
  soffid/pam-store:1.3.0 >/dev/null
  
......
......
docker create \
  --network soffid \
  -v soffid-pam-launcher:/opt/soffid/tomee/launcher \
  -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
  -p 8082:8080 \
  -e STORE_SERVER="http://$PUBLIC_IP:8081/" \
  -e STORE_USER="$userid" \
  -e STORE_PASSWORD="$pass" \
  --name soffid-pam-launcher \
  soffid/pam-launcher:1.3.0 >/dev/null

......

3. Finally, you can execute the script

~/Downloads$ bash ./install-pam.sh
A brief description of the script

1.  Creates two volumes, one for the storage and the other for the launcher.

2. Creates a storage server container:

2.1. In that container the files and videos recorded will be saved.

2.2. All the data will be saved using a key.

2.3. By default, it will use the 8081 port.

3. Starts the storage container.

4. Generates the user and password to connect the launcher.

5. Creates a launcher server container:

5.1. That container will be in charge of recording and sending the recording files to the storage.

5.2. Soffid allows you to configure some environment variables:

Variable Description
STORE_SERVER Store URL
STORE_USER Store user
STORE_PASSWORD Store password
JAVA_KEYSTORE (optional) Key store path that contains the key SSL
KEYSTORE_PASS (optional) SSL key
NETWORK_ID (optional) Network ID for docker services

5.3. By default, it will use the 8082 port. 

6. Starts the launcher container.

7. Generates the encryption key to be used to store the recordings.

8. Generates the user and password that have to be registered on Soffid Console.

You will get something similar to this. When the process is complete, two docker containers should be created: soffid-pam-store and soffid-pam-launcher.

~/Downloads$ bash ./install-pam.sh
=====================

Process completed
Notice: You must register the store server in Soffid console:
User name: bubu-thinkpad

Next, you must open the Jump Server page in the Soffid console. On this page, you must register the store and launcher servers, using the user name and password displayed in the previous step. Visit the Configure PAM session servers on Soffid Console to finish the installation process.

PAM Jump Server Installation

The purpose of this tutorial is to show how to install Jump servers and configure PAM using Docker compose, to use critical resources without knowing the password required.

Jump Server

A jump server, jump host or jump box is a system on a network used to access and manage devices in a separate security zone. A jump server is a hardened and monitored device that spans two dissimilar security zones and provides a controlled means of access between them. (*)

Installation

1. Execute the Store YAML

version: '3.8'

services:
  pam-store:
    image: soffid/pam-store:1.4.36
    environment:
      JAVA_KEYSTORE: /opt/soffid/tomee/certificados/YOUR_soffid-pam-store.jks 
      KEYSTORE_PASS: YOUR_KEYSTORE
    networks:
      - network
    volumes:
      - store-certificados:/opt/soffid/tomee/certificados
      - store-data:/opt/soffid/tomee/data

networks:
  network:
    name: YOUR_NETWORK
    driver: bridge

volumes:
  store-certificados:
    name: soffid-pam-certificados
  store-data:
    name: soffid-pam-store

Execute:

sudo docker compose up -d

2. Create a user in the Store to use it in the Launcher

Once, we are connected to the Store, we need to run a script to create the user. This script has two parameters, the user name, and the role. We have to type launcher in the role parameter.

docker exec YOUR_pam-store_CONTAINER /opt/soffid/tomee/bin/add-user.sh usuario-launcher launcher

Result:

/bin/bash: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (en_US.UTF-8)
Password: cccccc/Qul9NFIqQnDU73gYccccVHThyew7Qt8Hqpf0rEzVq1Ft7azccccccc

As a result of the script, we receive the password for the created user. This password will be needed later when we create the launcher container.

3. Create a user in the Store to use it in the Console

Once, we are connected to the Store, we need to run a script to create the user. This script has two parameters, the user name, and the role. We have to type console in the role parameter.

docker exec YOUR_pam-store_CONTAINER /opt/soffid/tomee/bin/add-user.sh usuario-console console

Result:

/bin/bash: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (en_US.UTF-8)
Password: asdadadasdads/Qul9NFIqQnDU73gYccccVHThyew7Qt8Hqpf0rEzVq1Ft7aadadadasd

As a result of the script, we receive the password for the created user. This password will be needed later when we configure PAM in the Soffid Console.

4. Execute the Launcher YAML

Configure PAM session servers

Definition

Soffid provides the functionality that allows you to configure the Jump servers. That option is located on

Main Menu > Administration > Configure Soffid > Security settings > Configure PAM session servers

To configure that functionality is mandatory to install PAM following the instructions of the PAM installation page.

A Jump server is the control point that forces users to log into that system first, then, they could traverse to other servers without having to log in again. The purpose of a jump server is to be the only gateway for access to your infrastructure reducing the size of any potential attack surface.

Screen overview

Standard attributes

Actions

Add new

Allows you to add a new configuration of PAM.  You can choose that option by clicking the add button (+).

You must fill in all the attributes to save a new configuration. 

Delete

Allows you to delete one or more configuration PAM registers, you must select one or more records from the list and click the button with the subtraction symbol (-).

To perform that action, Soffid will ask you for confirmation, you could confirm or cancel the operation.

Apply chanages

Allows you to create a new configuration PAM or to update an existing one. To save the data it will be mandatory to fill in the required fields. Also, the password and user name should be correct to connect.

Undo

Allows you to quit without applying any changes made.


SSH gateway

SSH gateway

SSH Gateway Installation

Introduction

Soffid allows you to deploy a new docker container with the ssh gateway. The configuration is similar to the sync server configuration, the main difference is the ssh container is listening in ssh.

Prerequisites

The SSH Service is only released as a docker service.

1. Install docker ( https://docs.docker.com/install/ )

2. Install Soffid PAM (store container and launcher container) 

You can visit the PAM Jump Server Installation page for more information about how to install PAM

3.  Create a Docker network(*), that network allows you to connect containers to the same bridge network to communicate:

sudo docker network create -d bridge NETWORKNAME

*  You can use the same network defined in the Console and Sync Server installation to avoid visibility problems.

Installation

The steps required to install SSH container are:

1. Create a user

We need to create a user in the pam store container. To do this, we need to connect to the store container.

sudo docker exec -it soffid-pam-store /bin/bash

Once, we are connected to the container, we need to run a script to create the user. This script has two parameters, the user name, and the role. We have to type launcher in the role parameter

root@soffid-pam-store:/# /opt/soffid/tomee/bin/add-user.sh proxysshtest launcher
Password: c4ZRcmgemq3nMr1VQJCD1pJRhPbdX5hrmmrP6RX7zBE4HSs3RV3+cGwDdL1WaaqZ
root@soffid-pam-store:/#

As a result of the script, we receive the password for the created user. This password will be needed later when we create the container.

2. Create volume

We need to create a volume that will be used by the docker container

sudo docker volume create soffid-ssh

3. Create a docker container

Finally, we need to execute the command to create the ssh gateway container

docker run \
--name soffid-ssh \
-e SOFFID_SERVER=https://iam-sync.soffidnet:1760 \
-e SOFFID_USER=admin \
-e SOFFID_PASS=changeit \
-e SOFFID_HOSTNAME=ssh-gateway \
-e STORE_SERVER=http://soffid-pam-store:8080 \
-e STORE_PASSWORD=kDH0vh8MFWWn843Vhzmj0Np7uzMEfbqFYM1ELCQqOf++tF0xfd=Ve2eGq81OXvqy \
-e STORE_USER=proxysshtest \
-v soffid-ssh:/opt/soffid/iam-sync/conf \
--publish 2222:22 \
--network=soffidnet \
soffid/pam-ssh:1.4.2

Environment Variables

To create the new SSH container you need to set the following environment variables:

Variable Description Example

SOFFID_SERVER

Sync Server URL

https://syncserver01.soffid.com:1760

SOFFID_USER

Soffid user to join the security domain

admin

SOFFID_PASSWORD

Soffid user password

changeit

SOFFID_HOSTNAME

The hostname used to access the ssh gateway

ssh-gateway

STORE_SERVER

Store URL

http://soffid-pam-store:8080

STORE_PASSWORD

Password received when you created the user in the store container.

************

STORE_USER

Store user

proxyssh

SSH Gateway Connection

Introduction

We can establish a connection to the target system using the SSH remote access protocol.

How to connect 1

You can establish the connection with the ssh gateway and then Soffid will ask your password and the target system parameters to connect:

root@soffid:~# ssh -p 2222 dilbert@ssh-gateway
Password: 
Target server: 10.129.120.5
Account to use: patricia
Account source system [leave blank to use a target system local account]:

How to connect 3

You can establish the connection with the target system typing all the parameters to connect in one line AccountName__HostName__TargetAccount and using a ssh key.

You can generate an ssh key to connect or use your existing ssh key. 

Then you need to include it in Soffid Console in your user data.

Finally you can establish the connection.

pgarcia@soffid:~$ ssh -p 2222 pgarcia__10.129.120.5__patricia@ssh-gateway

RDP Gateway Installation

RDP gateway

Soffid allows you to deploy a new docker container with the RDP gateway. The configuration is similar to the sync server configuration.

Prerequisites

The RDP Service is only released as a docker service.

1. Install docker ( https://docs.docker.com/install/ )

2. Install Soffid PAM (store container and launcher container) 

You can visit the PAM Jump Server Installation page for more information about how to install PAM

3. Create a Docker network(*), that network allows you to connect containers to the same bridge network to communicate:

sudo docker network create -d bridge NETWORKNAME

*  You can use the same network defined in the Console and Sync Server installation to avoid visibility problems.

Installation

The steps required to install SSH container are:

1. Create a user

We need to create a user in the pam store container. To do this, we need to connect to the store container.

sudo docker exec -it soffid-pam-store /bin/bash

Once, we are connected to the container, we need to run a script to create the user. This script has two parameters, the user name, and the role. We have to type launcher in the role parameter

root@soffid-pam-store:/# /opt/soffid/tomee/bin/add-user.sh proxyrdptest launcher
Password: c4ZRcmgemq3nMr1VQJCD1pJRhPbdX5hrmmrP6RX7zBE4HSs3RV3+cGwDdL1WaaqZ
root@soffid-pam-store:/#

As a result of the script, we receive the password for the created user. This password will be needed later when we create the container.

2. Create volume

We need to create a volume that will be used by the docker container

sudo docker volume create soffid-rdp

3. Create a docker container

Finally, we need to execute the command to create the rdp gateway container

docker run \
  --name soffid-rdp \
  -e SOFFID_SERVER=https://iam-sync.soffidnet:1760 \
  -e SOFFID_USER=admin \
  -e SOFFID_PASS=changeit \
  -e SOFFID_HOSTNAME=rdp-gateway \
  -e STORE_SERVER=http://soffid-pam-store:8080 \
  -e STORE_PASSWORD=/Dp77Kho5QB2vVKjNNGmXYLzVa6PoPWJ8p0E4O7EP++9/ZM+l3cieGKMRSgOnFCMc \
  -e STORE_USER=proxyrdp \
  -v soffid-rdp:/opt/soffid/iam-sync/conf \
  --privileged \
  --shm-size=1024m  \
  -p 3389:3389 \
  --network=soffidnet.intenal \
  soffid/pam-rdp:1.4.2
Environment Variables

To create the new SSH container you need to set the following environment variables:

Variable Description Example

SOFFID_SERVER

Sync Server URL

https://syncserver01.soffid.com:1760

SOFFID_USER

Soffid user to join the security domain

admin

SOFFID_PASSWORD

changeit

SOFFID_HOSTNAME

The hostname used to access the ssh gateway

ssh-gateway

STORE_SERVER

Store URL

http://soffid.pat.pam:8082

STORE_PASSWORD

Password received when you created the user in the store container.

************

STORE_USER

Store user

proxyrdp




RDP gateway

RDP Gateway Connection

Introduction

We can establish a connection to the target system using the RDP remote access protocol. You can use a remote desktop client.

How to connect 

You can establish the connection with the ssh gateway using a desktop client and then Soffid will ask you the parameters to connect:
