Description Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos 2017-08-22 12:24:42 UTC
Please convert to use the system's crypto policy for SSL and TLS:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:CryptoPolicies

If this program is compiled against gnutls, change the default priority string to be "@SYSTEM" or to use gnutls_set_default_priority().

If this program is compiled against openssl, and there is no default cipher list specified, you don't need to modify it. Otherwise replace the default cipher list with "PROFILE=SYSTEM".

In both cases please verify that the application uses the system's crypto policies.

If the package is already using the system-wide crypto policies, or it does not use SSL or TLS, no action is required, the bug can simply be closed.

Comment 2 Joe Orton 2017-08-22 15:09:36 UTC
mod_ssl has used:

SSLCipherSuite PROFILE=SYSTEM
SSLProxyCipherSuite PROFILE=SYSTEM

as the default for a few years.

The only place I can see we don't this is /usr/bin/ab - how strict should we be for this?

Comment 3 Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos 2017-08-22 16:34:56 UTC
Addressed then. Closing.
