Need to disable CBC mode cipher encryption along with MD5 & 96 bit MAC algorithm
Hi All
Is any one know how to diable CBC mode cipher encryption along with MD5 & 96 bit MAC algorithm in solaris 10.
Regards

Hi,
Hi I have setup Websphere Portal and Apache server on Solaris.
The problem is that clients are allowed to negotiate lower encryption levels and by default the Websphere Apache HTTP server accepts 56-bit keys (your Firefox client requested 256-bit AES below).
So How to disable... (0 Replies)

is there patches enable passwords of greater than 8 characters with only md5 encryption (rather than the older crypt) for solaris 8.

Hi all,
I'm looking for secure file encryption tools that use MAC address as encryption key. FYI, I'm using Red Hat Enterprise Linux OS.
For example: when A wants to send file to B
A will encrypt the file with B's computer MAC/IP address as an encryption key
This file can only be decrypted... (2 Replies)

Hi,
I did some NIS migration tests recently.
The target is to migrate the NIS server from Solaris 8 to Redhat Linux 6.5.
And, I found there are encryption issues while Linux NIS using MD5 hashing password for authentication whereas Solaris 8 clients using DES encryption.
It causes issues... (3 Replies)

Hi,
As part of the security hardening activity in our team, we have to disable CBC mode cipher encryption, and enable CTR or GCM cipher mode encryption.
To do this, in sshd_config I comment out these lines :

MACS hmac-sha1,hmac-md5
and add... (9 Replies)

crypt::des
DES(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation DES(3pm)
NAME
Crypt::DES - Perl DES encryption module
SYNOPSIS
use Crypt::DES;
DESCRIPTION
The module implements the Crypt::CBC interface, which has the following methods
blocksize =item keysize =item encrypt =item decrypt
FUNCTIONS
blocksize
Returns the size (in bytes) of the block cipher.
keysize
Returns the size (in bytes) of the key. Optimal size is 8 bytes.
new
my $cipher = new Crypt::DES $key;
This creates a new Crypt::DES BlockCipher object, using $key, where $key is a key of "keysize()" bytes.
encrypt
my $cipher = new Crypt::DES $key;
my $ciphertext = $cipher->encrypt($plaintext);
This function encrypts $plaintext and returns the $ciphertext where $plaintext and $ciphertext should be of "blocksize()" bytes.
decrypt
my $cipher = new Crypt::DES $key;
my $plaintext = $cipher->decrypt($ciphertext);
This function decrypts $ciphertext and returns the $plaintext where $plaintext and $ciphertext should be of "blocksize()" bytes.
EXAMPLE
my $key = pack("H16", "0123456789ABCDEF");
my $cipher = new Crypt::DES $key;
my $ciphertext = $cipher->encrypt("plaintex"); # NB - 8 bytes
print unpack("H16", $ciphertext), "
";
NOTES
Do note that DES only uses 8 byte keys and only works on 8 byte data blocks. If you're intending to encrypt larger blocks or entire files,
please use Crypt::CBC in conjunction with this module. See the Crypt::CBC documentation for proper syntax and use.
Also note that the DES algorithm is, by today's standard, weak encryption. Crypt::Blowfish is highly recommended if you're interested in
using strong encryption and a faster algorithm.
