10 Evaluation Analysis Activities
The evaluation analysis activities involved a structured evaluation of McAfee Firewall
Enterprise, including the following areas:
Development: The evaluators analyzed the McAfee Firewall Enterprise functional
specification, design documentation, and a subset of the implementation representation; they
determined that the design accurately describes the TOE security functionality (TSF)
interfaces and the TSF subsystems and modules, and how the TSF implements the security
functional requirements (SFRs). The evaluators analyzed the McAfee Firewall Enterprise
security architectural description and determined that the initialization process is secure and
that the security functions are protected against tamper and bypass, and that security domains
are maintained. The evaluators also independently verified that the correspondence mappings
between the design documents are correct.
Guidance Documents: The evaluators examined the McAfee Firewall Enterprise
preparative user guidance and operational user guidance and determined that it sufficiently
and unambiguously describes how to securely transform the TOE into its evaluated
configuration and how to use and administer the product. The evaluators examined and tested
the preparative and operational guidance, and determined that they are complete and
sufficiently detailed to result in a secure configuration.
Life-cycle support: An analysis of the McAfee Firewall Enterprise configuration
management system and associated documentation was performed. The evaluators found that
the McAfee Firewall Enterprise configuration items were clearly marked and could be
modified and controlled by automated tools. The developer’s configuration management
system was observed during a site visit, and it was found to be mature and well-developed
and operated in accordance with the CM plan. The evaluators confirmed that the access
Version 1.0 27 January 2012
- Page 8 of 13 -
CCS Certification Report McAfee
McAfee Firewall Enterprise
___________________________________________________________________________
control measures as described in the CM plan are effective in preventing unauthorised access
to the configuration items.
The evaluators examined the delivery documentation and determined that it described all of
the procedures required to maintain the integrity of McAfee Firewall Enterprise during
distribution to the consumer.
The evaluators examined the development security procedures during a site visit and
determined that they detailed sufficient security measures for the development environment
to protect the confidentiality and integrity of the McAfee Firewall Enterprise design and
implementation. The evaluators determined that the developer has used a documented model
of the TOE life-cycle and well-defined development tools that yield consistent and
predictable results.
The evaluators reviewed the flaw remediation procedures used by McAfee for McAfee
Firewall Enterprise. During a site visit, the evaluators also examined the evidence generated
by adherence to the procedures. The evaluators concluded that the procedures are adequate to
track and correct security flaws, and distribute the flaw information and corrections to
consumers of the product.
Vulnerability Assessment: The evaluators conducted an independent vulnerability analysis
of McAfee Firewall Enterprise. Additionally, the evaluators conducted a review of public
domain vulnerability databases and a focused search of all evaluation deliverables. The
evaluators identified potential vulnerabilities for testing applicable to the McAfee Firewall
Enterprise in its operational environment.
All these evaluation activities resulted in PASS verdicts.
11 ITS Product Testing
Testing at EAL 4 consists of the following three steps: assessing developer tests, performing
independent functional tests, and performing penetration tests.
11.1 Assessment of Developer Tests
The evaluators verified that the developer has met their testing responsibilities by examining
their test evidence, and reviewing their test results, as documented in the ETR3
.
The evaluators analyzed the developer’s test coverage and depth analysis and found them to
be complete and accurate. The correspondence between the tests identified in the developer’s

McAfee Firewall Enterprise
___________________________________________________________________________
test documentation and the functional specification, TOE design and security architecture
description was complete.
11.2 Independent Functional Testing
During this evaluation, the evaluator developed independent functional tests by examining
design and guidance documentation, examining the developer's test documentation,
executing a sample of the developer's test cases, and creating test cases that augmented the
developer tests.
All testing was planned and documented to a sufficient level of detail to allow repeatability
of the testing procedures and results. Resulting from this test coverage approach is the
following list of EWA-Canada test goals:
a. Initialization: The purpose of this test was to perform the customer install, generation,
and startup procedures to install the McAfee Firewall Enterprise and configure it to be
consistent with the Developer’s guidance documentation;
b. Repeat of Developer's Tests: The objective of this test goal is to repeat a subset of the
developer's tests; and
c. Independent Testing: The objective of this test goal is to prove or disprove the security
claims made by the vendor through positive and negative oriented functional testing. The
following independent test cases were executed:
i. Telnet Server Authentication Failure Processing: This test case verifies that
all connection attempts are audited and that a delay occurs after the fourth
unsuccessful attempt;
ii. Console Login Failure Processing: This test case verifies that all connection
attempts are audited and that a delay occurs after the fourth unsuccessful
attempt;
iii. Control-D Delay Bypass: This test case verifies that the [Ctrl-D] bypass is
handled correctly;
iv. Time Stamp Logs: This test case validates that various log files contain the
correct event time stamps;
v. Time Stamp on Files: This test case validates that the time stamps on files are
consistent with the system time;
vi. Time Control: This test case validates that only the administrator with full
administrator rights can change the date and time;
Version 1.0 27 January 2012
- Page 10 of 13 -
CCS Certification Report McAfee
McAfee Firewall Enterprise
___________________________________________________________________________
vii. Configuring Time through the Admin Console: This test case validates that
only the administrator with full administrator rights can change the date and
time; and
viii. Modify Memory: This test case validates that the memory is protected even
when a user has full administrator privileges.
11.3 Independent Penetration Testing
Subsequent to the independent review of public domain vulnerability databases and a
focused review of all evaluation deliverables, limited independent evaluator penetration
testing was conducted. The penetration tests focused on:
a. Port Scan: The purpose of this test case is to identify all open ports on the TOE;
b. Monitor for Information Leakage: The purpose of this test is to determine if the TOE
is leaking any information that might be useful to an attacker;
c. Communications failure: The purpose of this test is to verify how the TOE behaves
under extreme circumstances such as communications failure as a result of a
disruption to the connection or power;
d. Session Management – Concurrent Admin Sessions: The purpose of this test is to
determine how the TOE responds to concurrent administrator logins; and
e. Tampering – SQL Injections: The purpose of this test is to determine if the TOE
prevents SQL injection attacks at login.
The independent penetration testing did not uncover any exploitable vulnerabilities in the
intended operating environment.
11.4 Conduct of Testing
McAfee Firewall Enterprise was subjected to a comprehensive suite of formally documented,
independent functional and penetration tests. The testing took place at the Information
Technology Security Evaluation and Test (ITSET) Facility at EWA-Canada, as well as at the
McAfee development location. The CCS Certification Body witnessed a portion of the
independent testing. The detailed testing activities, including configurations, procedures, test
cases, expected results and observed results are documented in a separate Test Results
document.
11.5 Testing Results
The developer’s tests and the independent functional tests yielded the expected results,
giving assurance that McAfee Firewall Enterprise behaves as specified in its ST, functional
specification, TOE design and security architecture description.
