1) Backing up a bit in this thread.



I found that QSSLPCL *OPSYS definitions by release are:



IBM i 7.2 -- *TLSV1.2 *TLSV1.1 *TLSV1

IBM i 7.1 -- *TLSV1 *SSLV3



For V7R1 If I change QSSLPCL from *OPSYS to

Protocols

*TLSV1

*TLSV1.1

*TLSV1.2



This should meet my requirement for disabling both SSLv2 and SSLv3.

Does the order in which the're listed matter?

If I were at V7R2, no changes necessary, system defaults would work, correct?



2) Removing the old unsupported cyphers I believe will be a separate issue/change, is this correct?

How does one determine which cipher(s) should be removed from QSSLCSL?



The following table shows the cipher specifications that are supported for each protocol version. The supported cipher specifications for each protocol are indicated by the "X" in the appropriate column.



Here's both the V7R1 and V7R2 links in case the table formatting was lost.

V7R2 added 16 additional ciphers.

I wasn't able to copy/paste from the V7R2 info center.

Paul,



According to that list you have some deprecated ciphers allowed. the 40 bit

RC2 and RC4 have been deprecated IIRC. At least Firefox disabled support for those in recent updates...

Yes, you will want to change the QSSLCLS system value. Here's what I

am using now on my 7.1 systems to eliminate SSLv3 and the reduce the

number of allowed Ciphers for my servers:

System values.

Do I need to change QSSLCSL?

Normally, this is managed by IBM PTFs, correct?

Ok, maybe you found no usage, but that may not mean that you don't

still have it configured? Is that the issue?

I was notified by our corporate security admin (via Nessus scan) that

SSLv2 and SSLv3 were still being used on the I and needed to be disabled.



20007

SSL Version 2

and 3 Protocol

Detection

Medium 10.5.2.5 TCP

21 No iSeries



I turned on the TRCINT per doc N1020594, left it run for 7 days, found

no usage of SSLv2 or SSLv3, only *TLSV1.0

http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=nas8N1020594

What am I missing here?

How and where do I confirm if SSLv2 or SSLv3 is still configured?

How do I disable?

Thank You
