RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Christian Heimes 2019-11-28 11:12:22 UTC
This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://pagure.io/freeipa/issue/8125

FreeIPA should use the system's crypto policy for TLS versions and ciphers instead of defining its own ranges in Apache HTTPd configuration and HTTPClient configuration. Crypto policy give admins one central place to set allow ciphers, minimal key length, minimal TLS version, and similar settings. The change is also required to align FreeIPA with packaging recommendations for [Fedora Crypto Policy](https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/CryptoPolicies/) and RHEL.

The default settings also enable TLS 1.3. So far FreeIPA had TLS 1.3 support disabled in Apache HTTPd and on the client side because there were issues with post-handshake client cert authentication. The issues have been solved in recent python-urllib3, python-requests, and Apache HTTPd updates:

*  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1775158 Apache HTTPd bug "POST request with TLS 1.3 PHA client auth fails: Re-negotiation handshake failed: Client certificate missing"
* https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1761403  "python-requests / urllib3: Enable post-handshake authentication for TLS 1.3"

## Required changes

* Enable TLS 1.3 PHA for clients
* Require HTTPd version with PHA fixes
* Enable TLS 1.3 on the client side
* Remove ``SSLProtocol`` stanza from HTTPd config file on RHEL
* Change ``SSLProtocol`` stanza to enable all versions except SSL 3.0, TLS 1.0, and TLS 1.1 on Fedora.

The DEFAULT crypto policy on Fedora still enables TLS 1.0 and 1.1, but we don't want to enable the old protocols on the server side.
