[Bug 1400473] Re: Apache 2.2 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS only supports TLS1.0 which is vulnerable to BEAST attack

 

Apache 2.2 on 12.04 LTS does support TLSv1.1 and TLSv1.2 just fine.

Could you describe why you think it's not supported?

** Changed in: openssl (Ubuntu)

Title:
  Apache 2.2 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS only supports TLS1.0 which is
  vulnerable to BEAST attack

Status in openssl package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  For PCI compliance, one must not be vulnerable to the POODLE or BEAST
  or CRIME attacks. POODLE suggests removing  SSLv2 and SSLv3, and BEAST
  suggests removing TLSv1. However, since TLSv1.1 and TLSv1.2 do not
  seem to be supported by apache 2.2 on 12.04 LTS, and since apache 2.4
  on 12.04 LTS does not support PHP 5.3.X, the last branch to allow PHP
  register_globals, which is required for lots of legacy production code
  often used by sites with payment systems, and since Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
  does not support apache 2.2, and since Ubuntu 10.04 LTS does not
  support SHA256 signed SSL certificates, there may be no feasible way
  for someone to run a credit card processing system with any Ubuntu LTS
  system if they require both PCI compliance and PHP register_globals
  support.

  It looks like manually compiling PHP may be the only plausible way to
  surmount this issue in this particular circumstance.
