For some use cases, it is necessary to restrict the > encryption protocols used for communication between client and server. > Default JVM way of negotiations allows the best encryption protocol that > client can use. > e.g. I have set Cassandra to use encryption. Ideally client and server > negotiate to use best protocol (TLSv1.2). But a malicious client might force > TLSv1.0 which is susceptible to POODLE attacks. > At the moment only way to restrict the encryption protocol is using the > {{jdk.tls.client.protocols}} systems property. If I dont have enough access > to modify this property, I dont have any way of restricting the encryption > protocols. > I am proposing bring back the accepted_protocols property but make it > configurable. If not specified, let the JVM take care of the TLS negotiations. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: commits-unsubscr...@cassandra.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: commits-h...@cassandra.apache.org
