Bug #: 51477
Summary: Fix for 51073 Breaks SSLv3+TLSv1 Protocol Support in
APR Connector
Product: Tomcat 7
Version: unspecified
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: Connectors
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
We have used SSLProtocol="SSLv3+TLSv1" with the APR connectors in 6.0.x and
7.0.x successfully to support both SSLv3 and TLSv1 protocols exclusively (no
SSLv2 support). The following openssl s_client connection tests demonstrate
this functionality with 7.0.8:
$ openssl s_client -connect eiger.middleware.vt.edu:443 -tls1
CONNECTED(00000003)
...
SSL handshake has read 6158 bytes and written 293 bytes
---
New, TLSv1/SSLv3, Cipher is DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA
Server public key is 2048 bit
Secure Renegotiation IS supported
Compression: zlib compression
Expansion: zlib compression
SSL-Session:
Protocol : TLSv1
...
$ openssl s_client -connect eiger.middleware.vt.edu:443 -ssl3
CONNECTED(00000003)
...
SSL handshake has read 6027 bytes and written 319 bytes
---
New, TLSv1/SSLv3, Cipher is DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA

$ openssl s_client -connect eiger.middleware.vt.edu:443 -ssl2

Upon upgrading to Tomcat 7.0.16, which includes the fix for
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=51073, our desired protocol
combination fails with the expected "unsupported protocol" message.
Unfortunately, none of the officially supported strings mentioned at
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/http.html#SSL%20Support provide
the desired protocol support. In particular the protocol values are exclusive,
where setting SSLProtocol="SSLv3" prevents TLSv1 connections and vice versa.
The following s_client tests confirm this behavior:
(7.0.16 with SSLProtocol="SSLv3")
$ openssl s_client -connect eiger.middleware.vt.edu:443 -tls1
CONNECTED(00000003)
