Hello
I am trying to use Apache2 on Ubuntu. When I try running Apache2, it
throws up an error:
SSLv3 not supported by this version of OpenSSL. I tried installing
latest version of OpenSSL by using (sudo apt-get install openssl) on
Ubuntu. However the same error persist.
Any idea how do I resolve the error?
Please check if you Apache configuration explicitly requests use of
the mostly outdated SSLv3. Such a configuration setting may be
left over from years ago when SSLv3 was still a good thing to use.
SSLv3 is has many protocol design security holes that cannot be
fixedwithout switching to a later SSL version, such as TLS
1.0/1.1/1.2 etc. These bugs are not in OpenSSL, but in the
protocol standard itself.
Unfortunately there are still a few old web browsers that only
support SSLv3, but only if you absolutely have to support those
should you set up a way to use SSLv3 on your web server.
Enjoy
