Secure Renegotiation is not supported

Impact: Low

Description

It is possible to inject content into the start of sessions when the server does not support secure renegotiation in the SSL/TLS connections. The server should also support client-initiated renegotiations to be vulnerable to this vulnerability.

Recommendation

Update the webserver application and use the vendor-suggested configurations for production. Below is the configuration for Apache HTTP Server.

Set below directive in Apache configuration:

SSLOptions +StdEnvVars

And add below variable to your environment variables:

SSL_SECURE_RENEG=true
