Description Hao Chang Yu 2019-06-25 10:54:51 UTC
Description of problem:
Inconsistent "SSLVerifyDepth" value in the following 2 Apache configuration files (Foreman and Katello) can cause Apache to request unnecessary SSL secure renegotiation to the client (such as web browser). This will trigger security alert to an environment that running IPS, such as MacAfee IPS. Change the value of this directive to '3' in both file does prevent the renegotiation.

/etc/httpd/conf.d/05-foreman-ssl.conf
/etc/httpd/conf.d/05-foreman-ssl.d/katello.conf

Verified on Snap20.1 6.6.0.

Verified Point:

1- Checked SSLVerifyDepth value in 05-foreman-ssl.d/katello.conf file
# cat /etc/httpd/conf.d/05-foreman-ssl.d/katello.conf|grep SSLVerifyDepth
  SSLVerifyDepth 3
2- Checked SSLVerifyDepth value in 05-foreman-ssl.conf file
# cat /etc/httpd/conf.d/05-foreman-ssl.conf|grep SSLVerifyDepth
  SSLVerifyDepth          3 

3- Foreman-installer pacakge : foreman-installer-1.22.0.12-1.el7sat.noarch
