The Juniper SRX Services Gateway Firewall must configure ICMP to meet DoD requirements.

Overview

Finding ID	Version	Rule ID	IA Controls	Severity

Description
Providing too much information in error messages risks compromising the data and security of the application and system. Organizations carefully consider the structure/content of error messages. The required information within error messages will vary based on the protocol and error condition. Information that could be exploited by adversaries includes ICMP messages that reveal the use of firewalls or access-control lists.
