Dear Community I try to get an SSL Labs A rating for my CentOS8 Apache-server. I'am sure it has to do with my lack of understanding the crypto-policies configuration, can anybody give me an advice where i am wrong? My understanding is that the configuration in the pmod-file will override the ssl.conf values if PROFILE=SYSTEM is active. *** # Current runtime policy dump # DEFAULT:HTTPS arbitrary_dh_groups = 1 cipher = AES-256-GCM AES-256-CCM CHACHA20-POLY1305 AES-256-CTR AES-256-CBC AES-128-GCM AES-128-CCM AES-128-CTR AES-128-CBC group = X25519 X448 SECP256R1 SECP384R1 SECP521R1 FFDHE-2048 FFDHE-3072 FFDHE-4096 FFDHE-6144 FFDHE-8192 hash = SHA2-256 SHA2-384 SHA2-512 SHA3-256 SHA3-384 SHA3-512 SHA2-224 SHA1 ike_protocol = IKEv2 key_exchange = ECDHE DHE DHE-RSA DHE-PSK ECDHE-PSK ECDHE-GSS DHE-GSS mac = AEAD HMAC-SHA2-256 HMAC-SHA1 UMAC-128 HMAC-SHA2-384 HMAC-SHA2-512 min_dh_size = 2048 min_dsa_size = 2048 min_dtls_version = DTLS1.2 min_rsa_size = 2048 min_tls_version = TLS1.2 protocol = TLS1.3 TLS1.2 DTLS1.2 sha1_in_certs = 1 sign = ECDSA-SHA3-256 ECDSA-SHA2-256 ECDSA-SHA3-384 ECDSA-SHA2-384 ECDSA-SHA3-512 ECDSA-SHA2-512 EDDSA-ED25519 EDDSA-ED448 RSA-PSS-SHA2-256 RSA-PSS-SHA2-384 RSA-PSS-SHA2-512 RSA-SHA3-256 RSA-SHA2-256 RSA-SHA3-384 RSA-$ ssh_certs = 1 ssh_cipher = AES-256-GCM AES-256-CCM CHACHA20-POLY1305 CAMELLIA-256-GCM AES-256-CTR AES-256-CBC CAMELLIA-256-CBC AES-128-GCM AES-128-CCM CAMELLIA-128-GCM AES-128-CTR AES-128-CBC CAMELLIA-128-CBC ssh_etm = 1 ssh_group = X25519 X448 SECP256R1 SECP384R1 SECP521R1 FFDHE-2048 FFDHE-3072 FFDHE-4096 FFDHE-6144 FFDHE-8192 tls_cipher = AES-256-GCM AES-256-CCM CHACHA20-POLY1305 AES-256-CBC AES-128-GCM AES-128-CCM AES-128-CBC *** cat /etc/crypto-policies/policies/modules/HTTPS.pmod cipher = ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE-ECDSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305:ECDHE-RSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305:DHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:DHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384 *** Part of /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf *** # SSL Engine Switch: # Enable/Disable SSL for this virtual host.
