Chrome 29 came out recently and now supports TLS 1.2. So i decided to add
some of the new TLS 1.2 ciphers to my webserver, which are specified here:
https://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/ciphers.html#TLS_v1_2_cipher_suites.
My current setup is: Ubuntu 10.04, Nginx 1.5.3 ,OpenSSL 1.0.1e (build
myself)
Config file:
server {
listen 80;
server_name sherbers.de;
return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
}
server {
listen 443 ssl spdy default_server;
server_name sherbers.de;
ssl_certificate /etc/ssl/private/hosteurope/www.sherbers.de.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/ssl/private/hosteurope/www.sherbers.de.key;
ssl_protocols TLSv1 TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2;
ssl_ciphers
ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-SHA384:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-SHA:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA384:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA:DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA;
ssl_prefer_server_ciphers on;
ssl_session_cache shared:SSL:10m;
As you can see i only use ciphers with perfect forward secrecy, because why
not. When i connect to my webserver chrome shows it is using TLS 1.2 but as
a cipher it using ECDHE-RSA, which it was using before too when i only
offered TLS 1.1, without any of the ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers.
Any idea why nginx doesn't offers the new cipers?
Additional information:
- An ssl check at https://sslcheck.globalsign.com doesn't list any of the
ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers
- "openssl ciphers -v | grep ECDHE-ECDSA" outputs the following:
