If on the other hand you want to change ciphers for postfix, the tls_high_cipherlist setting (in conjunction with smtp(d)_tls_mandatory_ciphers=high) is where you set the ciphers. If you want to restrict the ciphers for the apache webserver, Apache's ssl.conf is the place to go. Of course, you might also be able to find precompiled packages or compile for yourself. Method 1: openssl sclient The simplest way to check support for a given version of SSL / TLS is via openssl sclient.
If your OS' repository doesn't have anything newer, maybe changing your repository URLs to an alternative site or higher OS version might also do the trick (I've done that successfully with Debian) but I don't know whether that can be done with CentOS. If you need newer ciphersuites, you have to update the library. The ciphersuites are implemented in those libraries. The applications that offer TLS encrypted services use those libraries (unless they use gnutls or Java libraries, which are also not uncommon). The fix for the heartbleed vulnerability has been backported toġ.0.1e-16 by Red Hat for Enterprise Linux see, and this is therefore the official fix that CentOS ships. Given CentOS' lineage, these are included.

How to upgrade OpenSSL in CentOS 6.5 / Linux / Unix from source?Īlso you might want to familiarize yourself with the backporting of fixes that Red Hat has done with OpenSSL.heartbleed openssl bug, need 1.0.1g openssl version.This currently means those with key lengths larger than 128 bits, and some cipher suites with 128-bit keys. COMPLEMENTOFALL The cipher suites not enabled by ALL, currently eNULL.
#Openssl ciphers install#
I'd do the latter since CentOS 6.5 is a fairly large install base, there has to be others dealing with the issue that have made that package already available. As of OpenSSL 1.0.0, the ALL cipher suites are sensibly ordered by default. You can either grab the source RPM from a Fedora repository and build it on CentOS 6.5 or make use of one of the pre-built RPMs that are floating around on the internet for CentOS 6.5. Question 2: How do you manually update to the latest OpenSSL version? Currently openssl-1.0.1i ? (CentOS states it is already the latest - which it is not.) The cipher suites are distributed as part of OpenSSL, so you'll have to upgrade that package to gain access to new ones. Question 1: Are cipher suites distributed within the OpenSSL program OR are ciphers suites add-ons?, if they are add-ons how do you update them?
