Aws Insecure Ssl Protocol

Description

Detects AWS Elastic Load Balancers (ELBv2) that are configured to use outdated and insecure SSL/TLS protocols (SSLv3, TLSv1, or TLSv1.1). These legacy protocols have known vulnerabilities and may expose the load balancer to security risks like POODLE and BEAST attacks.

Weakness:

016 - Insecure encryption algorithm - SSL/TLS

Category: Information Collection

Detection Strategy

    Scans all ELBv2 load balancers in the specified AWS region

    For each load balancer, examines all listeners that have SSL policies configured

    Checks if any SSL policy allows the insecure protocols: SSLv3, TLSv1, or TLSv1.1

    Reports a vulnerability if any listener's SSL policy includes one or more of these outdated protocols
