O112-C2-015500 – The DBMS must ensure that PKI-based authentication maps the authenticated identity to the user account – SSL_CLIENT_AUTHENTICATION

Details

The cornerstone of the PKI is the private key used to encrypt or digitally sign information. The key by itself is a cryptographic value that does not contain specific user information.

When including the DBMS in the Private Key Infrastructure, the authenticated user must map directly to a user account in the DBMS. If the user account is not directly tied to the authenticated identity, there is no way to know which, if any, database user account has been authorized.

Solution

Configure the DBMS to map the authenticated identity directly to the DBMS user account.
