The ciphers documentation page (https://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/ciphers.html)
says:
"kRSA, aRSA, RSA
cipher suites using RSA key exchange, authentication or either respectively."
That sounds like "RSA" should be a superset of kRSA and aRSA, but actually aRSA
includes cipher suites not in "RSA", as can be seen from:
(bash)$ diff <(openssl ciphers 'RSA' | sed -e 's/:/\n/g') <(openssl ciphers
'aRSA'| sed -e 's/:/\n/g')
As a consequence, !RSA allows some aRSA ciphers.
I don't know whether this is a documentation problem or a software problem.
I am using "OpenSSL 1.0.1e-fips 11 Feb 2013" on "Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Workstation release 6.6 (Santiago)".
Thanks,
