INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS ------------------------- for Debian 7 "wheezy" server 1/ Minimal debian install ------------------------- Install a minimal Debian 7 "wheezy" server system with the software: - OpenSSH server - LAMP server (don't forget php5-mysql) - Mail server You will get some questions, you will probably want to set: sudo apt-get install postfix - Postfix Configuration: Satellite system Make sure your system is up2date: apt-get update apt-get upgrade 2/ Dependencies * ---------------- Once the system is installed you can perform the following steps as root: # Because vim is just so practical apt-get install vim # Note that the php5-redis package in Debian oldstable (wheezy) only exists in the backports repository: http://backports.debian.org/Instructions/ # Install the dependencies: apt-get install gcc zip php-pear git redis-server make python-dev python-pip libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev zlib1g-dev php5-dev libapache2-mod-php5 php5-mysql php5-json php5-redis curl pear install Crypt_GPG # we need version >1.3.0 #if you are using a proxy do: pear config-set http_proxy http://username:password@yourproxy:80 3/ MISP code ------------ # Download MISP using git in the /var/www/ directory. mkdir /var/www/MISP cd /var/www/MISP git clone https://github.com/MISP/MISP.git /var/www/MISP git checkout tags/$(git describe --tags `git rev-list --tags --max-count=1`) # if the last shortcut doesn't work, specify the latest version manually # example: git checkout tags/v2.4.XY # the message regarding a "detached HEAD state" is expected behaviour # (you only have to create a new branch, if you want to change stuff and do a pull request for example) # if you are behind a proxy: git config --global http.proxy http://username:password@yourproxy:80 # Make git ignore filesystem permission differences cd /var/www/MISP git config core.filemode false # install Mitre's STIX and its dependencies by running the following commands: apt-get install python-dev python-pip libxml2-dev libxslt-dev zlib1g-dev 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 checkout v2.1.0.12 # before the next step make sure your http_proxy and https_proxy settings are set python setup.py install cd /var/www/MISP/app/files/scripts/python-stix git checkout v1.1.1.4 python setup.py install 4/ CakePHP ----------- # CakePHP is now included as a submodule of MISP, execute the following commands to let git fetch it: cd /var/www/MISP git submodule init 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 curl -s https://getcomposer.org/installer | php php composer.phar require kamisama/cake-resque:4.1.2 php composer.phar config vendor-dir Vendor php composer.phar install # Enable CakeResque with php5-redis sudo php5enmod redis # To use the scheduler worker for scheduled tasks, do the following: 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 as root: chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/MISP chmod -R 750 /var/www/MISP chmod -R g+ws /var/www/MISP/app/tmp chmod -R g+ws /var/www/MISP/app/files chmod -R g+ws /var/www/MISP/app/files/scripts/tmp 6/ Create a database and user ----------------------------- # Enter the mysql shell mysql -u root -p mysql> create database misp; mysql> grant usage on *.* to misp@localhost identified by 'XXXXXXXXX'; mysql> grant all privileges on misp.* to misp@localhost ; mysql> exit cd /var/www/MISP # Import the empty MySQL database from MYSQL.sql mysql -u misp -p misp < INSTALL/MYSQL.sql #enter the password you set previously 7/ Apache configuration ----------------------- # Now configure your apache server with the DocumentRoot /var/www/MISP/app/webroot/ # A sample vhost can be found in /var/www/MISP/INSTALL/apache.misp.ubuntu cp /var/www/MISP/INSTALL/apache.misp.ubuntu /etc/apache2/sites-available/misp.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 a2dissite 000-default # 000-default can be called default based on distribution, in which case run a2dissite default a2ensite misp # Enable modules a2enmod rewrite # Restart apache service apache2 reload # We seriously recommend using only SSL ! # Check out the /var/www/MISP/INSTALL/apache.misp.ssl file for an example 8/ MISP configuration --------------------- # There are 4 sample configuration files in /var/www/MISP/app/Config that need to be copied cd /var/www/MISP/app/Config cp -a bootstrap.default.php bootstrap.php cp -a database.default.php database.php cp -a core.default.php core.php cp -a config.default.php config.php # Configure the fields in the newly created files: # database.php : login, port, password, database # Important! Change the salt key in /var/www/MISP/app/Config/config.php # The salt key must be an at least 32 byte long string. # 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 'baseurl' => 'https://yourhostname.net', # and make sure the file permissions are still OK chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/MISP/app/Config chmod -R 750 /var/www/MISP/app/Config # Generate a GPG encryption key. mkdir /var/www/MISP/.gnupg chown www-data:www-data /var/www/MISP/.gnupg 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 configuration file # Make sure that you use the same settings in the MISP Server Settings tool (Described on line 184) # And export the public key to the webroot sudo -u www-data gpg --homedir /var/www/MISP/.gnupg --export --armor YOUR-EMAIL > /var/www/MISP/app/webroot/gpg.asc # To make the background workers start on boot 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: su www-data -c '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: chmod -R 750 /var/www/MISP/ 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 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 Optional features ------------------- # MISP has a new pub/sub feature, using ZeroMQ. To enable it, simply run the following command pip install pyzmq
