- Server operating system version
- CentOS 7.9
- Plesk version and microupdate number
- Obsidian 18.0.54
I have searched a while and the articles about this are all dated a while ago and I've ended up with little clarity.
As I understand it, Plesk Obsidian 18.0.54 supports OpenSSL versions with TLS1.3, but there is no clarity if this support extends to installations on CentOS.
My current OpenSSL version is OpenSSL 1.0.2k-fips 26 Jan 2017 which is prior to the 1.1.1 update which allowed TLS1.3
My CentOS version is 7.9
The best direction I've been given is by ChatGPT but I want to confirm this is correct before I begin the process - namely:
1. Before updating, check your current version of OpenSSL:
openssl version
2. Update the system's package database:
yum update
3. Update OpenSSL:
yum install openssl
4. Check the OpenSSL version again to verify that it has been updated:
openssl version
5. After updating OpenSSL, it's essential to restart the services that depend on it:
service httpd restart
service nginx restart
service dovecot restart
service postfix restart
service courier-imap restart
6. Check if there are updates available for Plesk itself:
plesk installer update
QUESTION: Does this course of action look good or is it likely to fall apart with my current versions?
