v1.25.56, March 13th 2018¶
What’s new¶
Feature: Cipher profile support
Load balancers with SSL termination are now assigned a cipher profile to control the set of ciphers enabled for secure communication between clients and the load balancer.
By default, load balancers are assigned a cipher profile named
default
which is managed by Rackspace and updated from time to time to disable ciphers that have become insecure. For this reason, use of thedefault
cipher profile is recommended.Other profiles are added and managed by Rackspace. As security concerns change, new cipher profiles may be added. Included with this release is the availability of the
CLBCipherPolicy2017-08
cipher profile which currently matches thedefault
profile with the exception of disabling theSSL_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA
cipher. Rackspace security experts have determined the aforementioned cipher is still secure for use with Cloud Load Balancers due to maximum lifetime of requests but due to being downgraded from a “high” to “medium” strength cipher will be removed from thedefault
profile in the near future. However, if you would like to disable it now you can leverage this new feature and theCLBCipherPolicy2017-08
profile to have it disabled on your load balancers immediately.You can find the latest list of available cipher profiles and the ciphers they enable in the Ciphers section.
Feature: List enabled ciphers
For load balancers with SSL termination enabled you can use the API to retrieve the list of ciphers enabled. See List ciphers.
