INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS ------------------------- for CentOS 6.x 1/ Minimal CentOS install ------------------------- Install a minimal CentOS 6.x system with the software: - OpenSSH server - LAMP server (actually, this is done below) - Mail server # Make sure your system is up2date: yum update 2/ Dependencies * ---------------- Once the system is installed you can perform the following steps as root: # We need some packages from the Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux repository curl -o epel.rpm http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm rpm -Uvh epel.rpm # Since MISP 2.4 PHP 5.5 is a minimal requirement, so we need a newer version than CentOS base provides # Software Collections is a way do to this, see https://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories/SCL yum install centos-release-scl # Because vim is just so practical yum install vim # Install the dependencies: yum install gcc git httpd zip redis mysql-server python-devel python-pip libxslt-devel zlib-devel # Install PHP 5.6 from SCL, see https://www.softwarecollections.org/en/scls/rhscl/rh-php56/ yum install rh-php56 rh-php56-php-fpm rh-php56-php-devel rh-php56-php-mysqlnd rh-php56-php-mbstring rh-php56-php-xml rh-php56-php-bcmath # Install Python 3.6 from SCL, see https://www.softwarecollections.org/en/scls/rhscl/rh-python36/ yum install rh-python36 # rh-php56-php only provided mod_php for httpd24-httpd from SCL # if we want to use httpd from CentOS base we can use rh-php56-php-fpm instead chkconfig rh-php56-php-fpm on service rh-php56-php-fpm start # php-fpm is accessed using the fcgi interface yum install mod_fcgid mod_proxy_fcgi # Start a new shell with rh-php56 enabled scl enable rh-php56 bash pear channel-update pear.php.net pear install Crypt_GPG # we need version >1.3.0 # GPG needs lots of entropy, haveged provides entropy yum install haveged chkconfig haveged on service haveged start # Enable and start redis chkconfig redis on service redis start 3/ MISP code ------------ # Download MISP using git in the /var/www/ directory. cd /var/www/ git clone https://github.com/MISP/MISP.git # Make git ignore filesystem permission differences cd /var/www/MISP git config core.filemode false # Start new shell with python 3 enabled scl enable rh-python36 bash # install Mitre's STIX and its dependencies by running the following commands: yum install python-importlib python-lxml python-dateutil python-six cd /var/www/MISP/app/files/scripts git clone https://github.com/CybOXProject/python-cybox.git git clone https://github.com/STIXProject/python-stix.git cd /var/www/MISP/app/files/scripts/python-cybox git config core.filemode false # If you umask is has been changed from the default, it is a good idea to reset it to 0022 before installing python modules UMASK=$(umask) umask 0022 python3 setup.py install cd /var/www/MISP/app/files/scripts/python-stix git config core.filemode false python3 setup.py install # install mixbox to accomodate the new STIX dependencies: cd /var/www/MISP/app/files/scripts/ git clone https://github.com/CybOXProject/mixbox.git cd /var/www/MISP/app/files/scripts/mixbox git config core.filemode false python3 setup.py install # install PyMISP cd /var/www/MISP/PyMISP python3 setup.py install # Enable python3 for php-fpm echo 'source scl_source enable rh-python36' >> /etc/opt/rh/rh-php56/sysconfig/php-fpm sed -i.org -e 's/^;\(clear_env = no\)/\1/' /etc/opt/rh/rh-php56/php-fpm.d/www.conf service rh-php56-php-fpm restart umask $UMASK 4/ CakePHP ----------- # CakePHP is now included as a submodule of MISP, execute the following commands to let git fetch it # ignore this message: # No submodule mapping found in .gitmodules for path 'app/Plugin/CakeResque' cd /var/www/MISP git submodule update --init --recursive # Make git ignore filesystem permission differences for submodules git submodule foreach --recursive git config core.filemode false # Once done, install CakeResque along with its dependencies if you intend to use the built in background jobs: cd /var/www/MISP/app php composer.phar require kamisama/cake-resque:4.1.2 php composer.phar config vendor-dir Vendor php composer.phar install # CakeResque normally uses phpredis to connect to redis, but it has a (buggy) fallback connector through Redisent.

Change the salt key in /var/www/MISP/app/Config/config.php # 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) # If you want to be able to change configuration parameters from the webinterface: chown apache:apache /var/www/MISP/app/Config/config.php # Generate a GPG encryption key. # If the following command gives an error message, try it as root from the console gpg --gen-key mv ~/.gnupg /var/www/MISP/ chown -R apache:apache /var/www/MISP/.gnupg # The email address should match the one set in the config.php configuration file # Make sure that you use the same settings in the MISP Server Settings tool (Described on line 232) # And export the public key to the webroot sudo -u apache gpg --homedir /var/www/MISP/.gnupg --export --armor YOUR-EMAIL > /var/www/MISP/app/webroot/gpg.asc # Start the workers to enable background jobs chmod +x /var/www/MISP/app/Console/worker/start.sh su -s /bin/bash apache -c 'scl enable rh-php56 /var/www/MISP/app/Console/worker/start.sh' # To make the background workers start on boot vi /etc/rc.local # Add the following line at the end su -s /bin/bash apache -c 'scl enable rh-php56 /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! 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: chmod -R 750 /var/www/MISP/ chown -R apache:apache /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 his 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 - Keep your software up2date (MISP, CakePHP and everything else) - Log and audit
