Yes.  In ds.conf set the FIPS state.  LDAP automagically sets the key sizes 
higher.


# sslFipsState <Off | Level1 | Level2 | Level3>
#
# Default Value: Off
#
# Description:
#   The sslFipsState option specifies the FIPS state for the LDAP server.
#   When FIPS mode turned on, it is more restrictive with respect to
#   cryptographic algorithms, protocols and key sizes that can be supported.
#
# Examples:
#   sslFipsState Off
#   sslFipsState Level1
#   sslFipsState Level2
#   sslFipsState Level3

Subject: IBM LDAP 4.4 Weak Key Exchange Vulnerability Issue
GM, Has anyone had issues remediating IBM LDAP 4. 4 "Weak Key Exchange" 
vulnerability on their secure port? Attempting to provide Cipher combos in 
slapd. env with no success. sslCipherSpecs 
GSK_V3_CIPHER_SPECS_EXPANDED=00380039 or sslCipherSpecs


GM,

       Has anyone had issues remediating IBM LDAP 4.4 "Weak Key Exchange" 
vulnerability on their secure port?



Attempting to provide Cipher combos in slapd.env with no success.



sslCipherSpecs GSK_V3_CIPHER_SPECS_EXPANDED=00380039



or



sslCipherSpecs GSK_V3_CIPHER_SPECS_EXPANDED=C027C028



In CA LDAP by setting TLS key size to 2K the vulnerability is remediated. There 
are no such TLS statements in IBM LDAP:



TLSDhMinKeySize 2048

TLSDsaMinKeySize 2048

TLSEccMinKeySize 194

TLSRsaMinKeySize 2048
