Fix Recommendation

1. Open every .conf file (e.g., ssl.conf) included in $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/components/OHS/<componentName>/httpd.conf with an editor that requires an SSL-enabled "<VirtualHost>" directive.

2. Search for the "SSLCipherSuite" directive at the OHS server, virtual host, and/or directory configuration scopes.

3. Set the "SSLCipherSuite" directive to "SSL_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,SSL_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA,SSL_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA,RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256,RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA256,RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256,RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384,ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA,ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA,ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256,ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA384,ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256,ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384,ECDHE_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA,ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA", add the directive if it does not exist.

Note: Ciphers may be removed from the list above per the organization's requirements or if vulnerabilities are found with a specific cipher.

Check Contents

1. As required, open every .conf file (e.g., ssl.conf) included in $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/components/OHS/<componentName>/httpd.conf with an editor that requires an SSL-enabled "<VirtualHost>" directive.

2. Search for the "SSLCipherSuite" directive at the OHS server, virtual host, and/or directory configuration scopes.

3. If the directive is omitted or set improperly, this is a finding.
