SSL Certificate

Hey folks,

Nessus scan has detected "35291 - SSL Certificate Signed Using Weak Hashing Algorithm" in 1311 TCP port, used by OMSA (8.2.0v), Do you know how I can fix it?

Thanks in advance

The error you're encountering signifies that the SSL certificate being used with Dell OpenManage Server Administrator (OMSA) 8.2.0 is signed using a weak hashing algorithm, which can pose security risks. To fix this issue, you'll need to update the SSL certificate to use a stronger hashing algorithm.

Here's a general outline of steps you can take to address this problem:

  1. Update OMSA: First, ensure that you're using the latest version of OMSA. Sometimes, newer versions come with updated SSL certificates and security improvements.

  2. Generate a New SSL Certificate: If updating OMSA doesn't resolve the issue, you may need to generate a new SSL certificate with a stronger hashing algorithm. You can generate a new SSL certificate using a tool like OpenSSL.

  3. Configure OMSA to Use the New Certificate: Once you have the new SSL certificate, configure OMSA to use it. This typically involves updating the SSL certificate in the OMSA configuration files or through the OMSA management interface.

  4. Restart OMSA: After updating the SSL certificate, restart OMSA to apply the changes.

  5. Test SSL Configuration: Finally, test the SSL configuration to ensure that the weak hashing algorithm error is resolved and that the SSL certificate is properly configured.

If you're not comfortable generating and configuring SSL certificates manually, you may want to consult with a system administrator or IT professional who has experience with SSL certificate management. Additionally, Dell's support documentation or forums may provide specific guidance for updating SSL certificates in OMSA.
