  1. Check the available entropy. Cryptographic operations require entropy to ensure randomness.
  2. Configure the operating system for FIPS.
    See https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html/security_guide/chap-federal_standards_and_regulations.
  3. On all hosts, run one of the following commands to verify that FIPS mode is enabled: 
    cat /proc/sys/crypto/fips_enabled
sysctl crypto.fips_enabled
  4. Configure a repository to install Cloudera Manager and other required packages.
    1. On the Cloudera Manager server host, download the repository file for your operating system and version: 
      https://[username]:[password]@archive.cloudera.com/p/cm7/7.2.4/redhat7/yum/cloudera-manager.repo
    2. Open the /etc/yum.repos.d/cloudera-manager.repo file in a text editor and replace the changeme placeholder values with your user name and password. 
      [cloudera-manager]
name=Cloudera Manager 7.2.4
baseurl=https://archive.cloudera.com/p/cm7/7.2.4/redhat7/yum/
gpgkey=https://archive.cloudera.com/p/cm7/7.2.4/redhat7/yum/
RPM-GPG-KEY-cloudera
username=changeme
password=changeme
gpgcheck=1
enabled=1
autorefresh=0
type=rpm-md
    3. If your hosts do not have access to https://archive.cloudera.com, you will need to set up a local repository. See Configuring a Local Package Repository.
  5. Manually install OpenJDK 8 or Oracle JDK 8 on all hosts.
  6. Download and Install CryptoComply for Java (CC for Java) SafeLogic - Java JCE Provider on all hosts:
    1. Obtain the SafeLogic CC Java module JAR file.
    2. Copy the ccj-3.0.1 (1).jar file to $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext.
    3. Obtain the SafeLogic BCTLS Java module JAR file.
    4. Copy the BCTLS-safelogic.jar file to $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext.
    5. Change the file permissions on both the ccj-3.0.1 (1).jar and BCTLS-safelogic.jar files to root and 0644: 
      chown root: ${java_home}/jre/lib/ext/ccj-3.0.1.jar
chmod 0644 ${java_home}/jre/lib/ext/ccj-3.0.1.jar
chown root: ${java_home}/jre/lib/ext/bctls-safelogic.jar
chmod 0644 ${java_home}/jre/lib/ext/bctls-safelogic.jar
  7. Add the CCJ configuration to the $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security/java.policy file within the closed bracket as shown below: 
    //CCJ Java Permissions
permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "getProtectionDomain";
permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "accessDeclaredMembers";
permission java.util.PropertyPermission "java.runtime.name", "read";
permission java.security.SecurityPermission "putProviderProperty.CCJ";
//CCJ Key Export and Translation
permission com.safelogic.cryptocomply.crypto.CryptoServicesPermission "exportKeys";
//CCJ SSL
permission com.safelogic.cryptocomply.crypto.CryptoServicesPermission "tlsAlgorithmsEnabled";
//CCJ Setting of Default SecureRandom
permission com.safelogic.cryptocomply.crypto.CryptoServicesPermission "defaultRandomConfig";
//CCJ Setting CryptoServicesRegistrar Properties
permission com.safelogic.cryptocomply.crypto.CryptoServicesPermission "globalConfig";
//CCJ Enable JKS
permission com.safelogic.cryptocomply.jca.enable_jks "true";
}
  8. Add the following to the $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security/java.security file. 
    #
# List of providers and their preference orders (see above):
#
security.provider.1=com.safelogic.cryptocomply.jcajce.provider.CryptoComplyFipsProvider
security.provider.2=sun.security.provider.Sun
security.provider.3=sun.security.rsa.SunRsaSign
security.provider.4=sun.security.ec.SunEC
security.provider.5=com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Provider
security.provider.6=com.sun.crypto.provider.SunJCE
security.provider.7=sun.security.jgss.SunProvider
security.provider.8=com.sun.security.sasl.Provider
security.provider.9=org.jcp.xml.dsig.internal.dom.XMLDSigRI

  1. Obtain the CryptoComply for Libgcrypt (CC for Libgcrypt) and CryptoComply for Server (CC for Server) SafeLogic modules and packages.
  2. Copy the CryptoComply for Server (CCS) - OpenSSL RPMs to all hosts.
    1. Unzip the download.
    2. Run the following command to install the packages. 
      yum localinstall -y openssl-1.0.2v-1.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm \
openssl-devel-1.0.2v-1.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm \
openssl-libs-1.0.2v-1.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm \
openssl-perl-1.0.2v-1.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm \
openssl-static-1.0.2v-1.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm
  3. Copy the CryptoComply for Libgcrypt RPMs to all hosts.
    1. Unzip the file.
    2. Run the following command to install the packages. 
      yum localinstall -y libgcrypt-1.5.3-12.el7.centos.1.x86_64.rpm

  1. Log in to the Cloudera Manager server host.
  2. Run the following command to install Cloudera Manager server. 
    sudo yum install cloudera-manager-daemons cloudera-manager-agent cloudera-manager-server
  3. Add the following line at the end of the /etc/default/cloudera-scm-server file: 
    export CMF_JAVA_OPTS="${CMF_JAVA_OPTS} -Dcom.cloudera.cmf.fipsMode=true -Dcom.safelogic.cryptocomply.fips.approved_only=true"

Run the following commands on each host to validate the CCJ and CCS installation.

  1. Run the following command: 
    sysctl crypto.fips_enabled

    This should return: 

    crypto.fips_enabled = 1
  2. Run the following command: 
    echo greeting | openssl md5

    This command should fail, indicating that FIPS is enabled.

  3. Run the following command: 
    read -r -d '' list_providers <<EOF
p = java.security.Security.getProviders();
for (i = 0; i < p.length; i++) { java.lang.System.out.println(p[i]); }
EOF
${JAVA_HOME}/bin/jrunscript -e "$list_providers"

    This command should return the version numbers of the SafeLogic packages, for example: 

    CCJ version 1.01
SUN version 1.8
SunRsaSign version 1.8
SunEC version 1.8
SunJSSE version 1.8
SunJCE version 1.8
SunJGSS version 1.8
SunSASL version 1.8
XMLDSig version 1.8
SunPCSC version 1.8
  4. Run the following command: 
    read -r -d '' do_maxAESKeyLength <<EOF
java.lang.System.out.println(javax.crypto.Cipher.getMaxAllowedKeyLength("AES/CBC/PKCS5Padding"));
EOF
answer=`${JAVA_HOME}/bin/jrunscript -Dcom.safelogic.cryptocomply.fips.approved_only=true -e "$do_maxAESKeyLength"`
echo $answer

    This command should return: 

    2147483647

  1. Configure the database in a FIPS-compliant manner. Consult the vendor documentation for your database for details.
  2. Enable the database for TLS/SSL clients, to ensure that all JDBC connections into these databases are FIPS compliant. Consult the vendor documentation for your database for details.
  3. Configure JDBC Driver in a FIPS compliant manner with TLS/SSL and BCFKS provided by CCJ JCE provider. Consult the following Cloudera Knowledge Base article for more information: Configuring SSL/TLS from the various CDH Services to their respective PostgreSQL Databases.
  4. Complete the setup of your databases for use with Cloudera Manager and Cloudera Runtime components. See Install and Configure PostgreSQL for CDP.
