ScanAlert Vulnerability - SSL Protocol Version 2 Detection

edited Apr 16, 2009 8:31AM in Web Site / E-Commerce 2 comments

We received this vulnerability, can you please confirm if it has been resolved?

<<The remote service appears to encrypt traffic using SSL protocol version 2.

Netscape Communications Corporation introduced SSL 2.0 with the launch of Netscape Navigator 1.0 in 1994 and it contains several well-known weaknesses. For example, SSLv2 doesn't provide any protection against man-in-the-middle attacks during the handshake, and uses the same cryptographic keys for message authentication and for encryption.

In Internet Explorer 7, the default HTTPS protocol settings are changed to disable the weaker SSLv2 protocol and to enable the stronger TLSv1 protocol. By default, IE7 users will only negotiate HTTPS connections using SSLv3 or TLSv1. Mozilla Firefox is expected to drop support for SSLv2 in its upcoming versions.

Howdy, Stranger!
