AI-suggested
Users of the NASA-AMMOS ANMS reference implementation should avoid using the default docker-compose.yml configuration that exposes the amp-manager service directly to the host network. Instead, they should ensure that the amp-manager service is only accessible through the CAM gateway or implement additional authentication and network access controls to prevent unauthorized access. Monitor the vendor advisory for updates regarding official remediation.
Description
The NASA-AMMOS Asynchronous Network Management System (ANMS) reference implementation's default docker-compose.yml publishes the amp-manager service's REST API directly to the host network interface (port 8089, e.g. ":8089/tcp") with cap_add: NET_ADMIN, NET_RAW, SYS_NICE, bypassing the CAM (Configuration and Access Manager) gateway that is otherwise the system's sole authentication boundary.
