Thanks!

Those docs will be revised soon as TLS 1.0 has also been cracked.  (My ancient 
server does not yet use TLS 1.1, which is currently still "secure".)

Now to deal with the TLS Renegotiation...

I found a Citrix patch (PSE450R06W2K3030).  Now this is where inheriting a 
Citrix system comes to bite.  That hot fix requires a previously release 
roll-up.  That roll-up requires a new version of license server (I seem to 
remember 11.something).  The page goes on to say the roll-up will work with 
older license server versions, but it will then make the hosted applications 
unavailable.  NICE!

The Citrix eDocs says if you are using SSL v3 you are not FIPS compliant.  You 
have to use TLS 1.0.

SSL/TLS and FIPS Compliance
When configured properly, deployments using TLS 1.0 can use FIPS 140-validated 
cryptographic modules in a manner that is compliant with FIPS 140-2; SSL 3.0 is 
not FIPS compliant. For more information, refer to the Guidelines for the 
Selection and Use of the Transport Layer Security (TLS) implementations at 
http://csrc.nist.gov/publications/nistpubs/800-52/SP800-52.pdf.

Ain't just FIPS. Also NIST and PCI and... etc.

I am in the process of writing four books simultaneously (XA5/2003, XA5/2008, 
XA6.0 and XA6.5).  After this thread, I will make sure I add this SSL 
v3/TLS(FIPS) stuff.

Thanks

Thanks!

Went to your web site, but 4.5 seems to be too old for anything there.

I think I have all but the "microsoft iis content location internal ip address 
leak" taken care of, and I have a bunch of tabs open concerning that.

I'll find out for sure what has been taken care of after this upcoming scan...

I am checking.  Please hold for the next available Citrix support person.

Just gotta know the right search string.

Now: Citrix/XenApp support for SSL 3.0 - I don't know anything about that. Carl 
Webster needs to speak to that! :)

Hopefully, the subject line is not a complete oxymoron...

Yes, I am continuing to search Google as well as the MS TechNet pages (that 
Google returns) concerning IIS 6.0.

We failed a PCI compliance audit on our Citrix server (Presentation Server 4.5, 
and yes, a new Citrix system is in the works, but this one needs to pass a scan 
test.)

The system does have a VeriSign SSL certificate.
--
Here are the issues found by the scan:

Disable TLS Renegotiation

Fix Microsoft IIS Content Location Internal IP Address Leak (Note - the server 
is accessed via web through a MIP's IP address)

Upgrade to the latest version of OpenSSL

Disable SSL support for weak ciphers

Disable SSL v2 protocol support
--
Anyway, we need assistance in dealing with those security issues without hosing 
the Citrix services (which our clients are paying for).

Thank you; back to Google and Technet...
