INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS ------------------------- for Ubuntu 16.04-server 1/ Minimal Ubuntu install ------------------------- # Install a minimal Ubuntu 16.04-server system with the software: - OpenSSH server # Make sure your system is up2date: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade # install postfix, there will be some questions. sudo apt-get install postfix # Postfix Configuration: Satellite system # change the relay server later with: sudo postconf -e 'relayhost = example.com' sudo postfix reload 2/ Install LAMP & dependencies ------------------------------ Once the system is installed you can perform the following steps: # Install the dependencies: (some might already be installed) sudo apt-get install curl gcc git gnupg-agent make python openssl redis-server sudo vim zip # Install MariaDB (a MySQL fork/alternative) sudo apt-get install mariadb-client mariadb-server # Secure the MariaDB installation (especially by setting a strong root password) sudo mysql_secure_installation # Install Apache2 sudo apt-get install apache2 apache2-doc apache2-utils # Enable modules, settings, and default of SSL in Apache sudo a2dismod status sudo a2enmod ssl rewrite sudo a2dissite 000-default sudo a2ensite default-ssl # Install PHP and dependencies sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php php php-cli php-crypt-gpg php-dev php-json php-mysql php-opcache php-readline php-redis # Apply all changes sudo systemctl restart apache2 3/ MISP code ------------ # Download MISP using git in the /var/www/ directory. sudo mkdir /var/www/MISP sudo chown www-data:www-data /var/www/MISP sudo -u www-data git clone https://github.com/MISP/MISP.git /var/www/MISP cd /var/www/MISP # Make git ignore filesystem permission differences sudo -u www-data git config core.filemode false # install Mitre's STIX and its dependencies by running the following commands: sudo apt-get install python-dev python-pip libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev zlib1g-dev cd /var/www/MISP/app/files/scripts sudo -u www-data git clone https://github.com/CybOXProject/python-cybox.git sudo -u www-data git clone https://github.com/STIXProject/python-stix.git cd /var/www/MISP/app/files/scripts/python-cybox sudo -u www-data git checkout v2.1.0.12 sudo python setup.py install cd /var/www/MISP/app/files/scripts/python-stix sudo -u www-data git checkout v1.1.1.4 sudo python setup.py install 4/ CakePHP ----------- # CakePHP is included as a submodule of MISP, execute the following commands to let git fetch it: cd /var/www/MISP sudo -u www-data git submodule init sudo -u www-data git submodule update # Once done, install CakeResque along with its dependencies if you intend to use the built in background jobs: cd /var/www/MISP/app sudo -u www-data wget https://getcomposer.org/download/1.1.2/composer.phar -O composer.phar sudo -u www-data php composer.phar require kamisama/cake-resque:4.1.2 sudo -u www-data php composer.phar config vendor-dir Vendor sudo -u www-data php composer.phar install # Enable CakeResque with php-redis sudo phpenmod redis # To use the scheduler worker for scheduled tasks, do the following: sudo -u www-data cp -fa /var/www/MISP/INSTALL/setup/config.php /var/www/MISP/app/Plugin/CakeResque/Config/config.php 5/ Set the permissions ---------------------- # Check if the permissions are set correctly using the following commands: sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/MISP sudo chmod -R 750 /var/www/MISP sudo chmod -R g+ws /var/www/MISP/app/tmp sudo chmod -R g+ws /var/www/MISP/app/files sudo chmod -R g+ws /var/www/MISP/app/files/scripts/tmp 6/ Create a database and user ----------------------------- # Enter the mysql shell sudo mysql -u root -p MariaDB [(none)]> create database misp; MariaDB [(none)]> grant usage on *.* to misp@localhost identified by 'XXXXdbpasswordhereXXXXX'; MariaDB [(none)]> grant all privileges on misp.* to misp@localhost; MariaDB [(none)]> flush privileges; MariaDB [(none)]> exit # Import the empty MISP database from MYSQL.sql sudo -u www-data sh -c "mysql -u misp -p misp < /var/www/MISP/INSTALL/MYSQL.sql" # enter the password you set previously 7/ Apache configuration ----------------------- # Now configure your Apache webserver with the DocumentRoot /var/www/MISP/app/webroot/ sudo cp /var/www/MISP/INSTALL/apache.misp.ssl /etc/apache2/sites-available/misp-ssl.conf # Be aware that the configuration files for apache 2.4 and up have changed. # The configuration file has to have the .conf extension in the sites-available directory # For more information, visit http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/upgrading.html # If a valid SSL certificate is not already created for the server, create a self-signed certificate: openssl req -newkey rsa:4096 -days 365 -nodes -x509 \ -subj "/C=/ST=/L=/O=/OU=/CN=/emailAddress=admin@" \ -keyout /etc/ssl/private/misp.local.key -out /etc/ssl/private/misp.local.crt # Otherwise, copy the SSLCertificateFile, SSLCertificateKeyFile, and SSLCertificateChainFile to /etc/ssl/private/.

Change the salt key in /var/www/MISP/app/Config/config.php # The salt key must be a string at least 32 bytes long. # The admin user account will be generated on the first login, make sure that the salt is changed before you create that user # If you forget to do this step, and you are still dealing with a fresh installation, just alter the salt, # delete the user from mysql and log in again using the default admin credentials (admin@admin.test / admin) # Change base url in config.php sudo -u www-data vim /var/www/MISP/app/Config/config.php # example: 'baseurl' => 'https://', # alternatively, you can leave this field empty if you would like to use relative pathing in MISP # 'baseurl' => '', # and make sure the file permissions are still OK sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/MISP/app/Config sudo chmod -R 750 /var/www/MISP/app/Config # Generate a GPG encryption key. sudo -u www-data mkdir /var/www/MISP/.gnupg sudo chmod 700 /var/www/MISP/.gnupg sudo -u www-data gpg --homedir /var/www/MISP/.gnupg --gen-key # The email address should match the one set in the config.php / set in the configuration menu in the administration menu configuration file # And export the public key to the webroot sudo -u www-data sh -c "gpg --homedir /var/www/MISP/.gnupg --export --armor YOUR-KEYS-EMAIL-HERE > /var/www/MISP/app/webroot/gpg.asc" # To make the background workers start on boot sudo chmod +x /var/www/MISP/app/Console/worker/start.sh sudo vim /etc/rc.local # Add the following line before the last line (exit 0). Make sure that you replace www-data with your apache user: sudo -u www-data bash /var/www/MISP/app/Console/worker/start.sh # Now log in using the webinterface: # The default user/pass = admin@admin.test/admin # Using the server settings tool in the admin interface (Administration -> Server Settings), set MISP up to your preference # It is especially vital that no critical issues remain! # start the workers by navigating to the workers tab and clicking restart all workers # Don't forget to change the email, password and authentication key after installation. # Once done, have a look at the diagnostics # If any of the directories that MISP uses to store files is not writeable to the apache user, change the permissions # you can do this by running the following commands: sudo chmod -R 750 /var/www/MISP/ sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/MISP/ # Make sure that the STIX libraries and GnuPG work as intended, if not, refer to INSTALL.txt's paragraphs dealing with these two items # If anything goes wrong, make sure that you check MISP's logs for errors: # /var/www/MISP/app/tmp/logs/error.log # /var/www/MISP/app/tmp/logs/resque-worker-error.log # /var/www/MISP/app/tmp/logs/resque-scheduler-error.log # /var/www/MISP/app/tmp/logs/resque-2015-01-01.log // where the actual date is the current date Recommended actions ------------------- - By default CakePHP exposes its name and version in email headers. Apply a patch to remove this behavior. - You should really harden your OS - You should really harden the configuration of Apache - You should really harden the configuration of MySQL/MariaDB - Keep your software up2date (OS, MISP, CakePHP and everything else) - Log and audit Optional features ------------------- # MISP has a new pub/sub feature, using ZeroMQ. To enable it, simply run the following command sudo pip install pyzmq # ZeroMQ depends on the Python client for Redis sudo pip install redis
