Description

On a default installation of apache on SLES11, the security settings are pretty "relaxed", resulting in a massively poor rudder GUI / API security level.

This gives you a rating when using testssl (quite handy script @ https://github.com/drwetter/testssl.sh):

Putting some effort in it, I think I have came up with a quite good set of settings for Rudder root/relay servers regarding SSL/TLS hardening:

SSLHonorCipherOrder on
SSLProtocol all -SSLv2 -SSLv3
SSLCipherSuite "HIGH:!DH:!ADH:!MD5:!RC4:!aNULL:!eNULL:!LOW:!3DES:!EXP:!PSK:!SRP:!DSS" 

This will make it almost "good", but not "extraordinary secure" (you have to know that SLES11 still has openssl0.9.8, which is a very big limitation).

Here are the test results after applying these:
