Problem IT46888 | Status: Closed |
INVALID CIPHER USED TO COMMUNICATE WITH OLDER VERSION OF INFORMIX SERVER WITH ONSOCSSL | |
product: | |
IBM CSDK / 5724C2381 / 450 - CSDK 4.50 | |
Problem description: | |
The format of SSL keystores has changed starting with IBM GSKit 8.0.55.28 and vulnerable ciphers have been removed. This change leaves TLS 1.1 without any supported ciphers. When attempting to connect to older servers (i.e. using older versions of IBM GSKit), the following error is thrown: 28014: Secure Sockets Layer error: cannot initialize GSKit secure socket/GSK_ERROR_BAD_PEER (GSKit:415) Likewise, connecting from an older server to a server running IBM GSKit 8.0.55.31 or later will produce the same results. | |
