• Debian 11 is approaching its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.80 will be the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

Where has apache cipher config gone?

In Plesk 10 on CentOS using Apache, the SSL cipher configuration was set in /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf via the SSLProtocol and SSLCipherSuite directives. In Plesk 11 on CentOS with Apache, that entire section of the config file is commented out. I can't find anything related to ciphers in the core apache files, in the conf.d files, in the /var/www/vhosts/domain/conf/ files or in the files in /usr/local/psa/admin/conf/generated/.

Where has the cipher configuration gone?
 
There is following default values if you haven't specified these directives:

for SSLCipherSuite it is ALL:!ADH:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM:+LOW:+SSLv2:+EXP

If you have istalled mod_ssl you can create file /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf with following content:

<IfModule mod_ssl.c>
SSLProtocol all -SSLv2
SSLCipherSuite это ALL:!ADH:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM:+LOW:+SSLv2:+EXP
</IfModule>

BTW, SSLCipherSuite HIGH:MEDIUM:!ADH would be better.
 
We've found we need the following to get it to pass security scans:

SSLProtocol all -SSLv2
SSLHonorCipherOrder On
SSLCipherSuite RC4-SHA:HIGH:!ADH:!DH:!MD5:!aNULL:!eNULL:!SSLv2:!LOW

Thank you for useful information!
