Ssl – Disable Cipher SSL3_RSA_WITH_SEED_SHA in Postfix

email-serverpostfixssl

I want to disable cipher SSL3_RSA_WITH_SEED_SHA in Postfix.

I have got in main.cf

smtpd_tls_ciphers = high
smtpd_tls_protocols = TLSv1,!SSLv2,!SSLv3
smtpd_tls_exclude_ciphers = aNULL, DES, 3DES, MD5, DES+MD5, RC4

What should I add to smtpd_tls_exclude_ciphers to exclude SSL3_RSA_WITH_SEED_SHA?

You can use BetterCrypto document for a secure configuration. After that, OpenVAS should not trigger any problem.

smtpd_tls_mandatory_protocols = !SSLv2, !SSLv3
tls_preempt_cipherlist = yes
smtpd_tls_mandatory_ciphers=high
tls_high_cipherlist=EDH+CAMELLIA:EDH+aRSA:EECDH+aRSA+AESGCM:EECDH+aRSA+SHA384:EECDH+aRSA+SHA256:EECDH:+CAMELLIA256:+AES256:+CAMELLIA128:+AES128:+SSLv3:!aNULL:!eNULL:!LOW:!3DES:!MD5:!EXP:!PSK:!DSS:!RC4:!SEED:!ECDSA:CAMELLIA256-SHA:AES256-SHA:CAMELLIA128-SHA:AES128-SHA

Page 26, Section 2.3.4.Postfix: https://bettercrypto.org/static/applied-crypto-hardening.pdf

Please read Limitations, too.

I hope to be useful.

Ssl – Apache mod_ssl configuration for PCI compliance

This is what I currently use for a PCI compliant Apache configuration:

SSLProtocol all -SSLv2
SSLCipherSuite ALL:!EXP:!NULL:!ADH:!LOW
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^TRACE
RewriteRule .* - [F]

Ssl – RC4 cipher not working on Windows 2008 R2 / IIS 7.5

The issue why RC4 isn't working is that is has to be set to 0xfffffff or 4294967295 in the registry, not 1 to enable it.

Here's some PowerShell functions which were used to set our IIS installs up with the PCI compliant:

This function is used to enable/disable required protocols

function Set-IISSecurityProtocols {
$protopath = "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Protocols"
& reg.exe add "$protopath\PCT 1.0\Server" /v Enabled /t REG_DWORD /d 00000000 /f
& reg.exe add "$protopath\SSL 2.0\Server" /v Enabled /t REG_DWORD /d 00000000 /f
& reg.exe add "$protopath\SSL 3.0\Server" /v Enabled /t REG_DWORD /d 00000001 /f
& reg.exe add "$protopath\TLS 1.0\Server" /v Enabled /t REG_DWORD /d 00000001 /f
& reg.exe add "$protopath\TLS 1.1\Server" /v Enabled /t REG_DWORD /d 00000001 /f
& reg.exe add "$protopath\TLS 1.1\Server" /v DisabledByDefault /t REG_DWORD /d 00000000 /f
& reg.exe add "$protopath\TLS 1.2\Server" /v Enabled /t REG_DWORD /d 00000001 /f
& reg.exe add "$protopath\TLS 1.2\Server" /v DisabledByDefault /t REG_DWORD /d 00000000 /f
& reg.exe add "$protopath\TLS 1.1\Client" /v Enabled /t REG_DWORD /d 00000001 /f
& reg.exe add "$protopath\TLS 1.1\Client" /v DisabledByDefault /t REG_DWORD /d 00000000 /f
& reg.exe add "$protopath\TLS 1.2\Client" /v Enabled /t REG_DWORD /d 00000001 /f
& reg.exe add "$protopath\TLS 1.2\Client" /v DisabledByDefault /t REG_DWORD /d 00000000 /f

}

And this function is where you set what ciphers are allowed to be used, or not used

function Set-IISSupportedCiphers {
$cipherpath = "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Ciphers"
& reg.exe add "$cipherpath\NULL" /v Enabled /t REG_DWORD /d 00000000 /f
& reg.exe add "$cipherpath\DES 56/56" /v Enabled /t REG_DWORD /d 00000000 /f
& reg.exe add "$cipherpath\RC2 40/128" /v Enabled /t REG_DWORD /d 00000000 /f
& reg.exe add "$cipherpath\RC2 56/128" /v Enabled /t REG_DWORD /d 00000000 /f
& reg.exe add "$cipherpath\RC2 128/128" /v Enabled /t REG_DWORD /d 00000000 /f 
& reg.exe add "$cipherpath\RC4 40/128" /v Enabled /t REG_DWORD /d 00000000 /f
& reg.exe add "$cipherpath\RC4 56/128" /v Enabled /t REG_DWORD /d 00000000 /f
& reg.exe add "$cipherpath\RC4 64/128" /v Enabled /t REG_DWORD /d 00000000 /f
& reg.exe add "$cipherpath\RC4 128/128" /v Enabled /t REG_DWORD /d 4294967295 /f
& reg.exe add "$cipherpath\Triple DES 168/168" /v Enabled /t REG_DWORD /d 4294967295 /f
& reg.exe add "$cipherpath\AES 128/128" /v Enabled /t REG_DWORD /d 4294967295 /f 
& reg.exe add "$cipherpath\AES 256/256" /v Enabled /t REG_DWORD /d 4294967295 /f

}

Once these changes have been set (A reboot is required afaik) you then can set the priority in which the ciphers are used.

To immune the BEAST vulnerability it's reccomended you used RC4 first as outlined @ http://www.phonefactor.com/blog/slaying-beast-mitigating-the-latest-ssltls-vulnerability.php

This will be the case until either

All browsers patch the BEAST vulnerability
Or everyone starts supporting TLS1.2
