I've a strange behaviour with firefox browser. I've an old IBM http server 7.0.0.35 when I call it with firefox in https it returns this error: SSL_ERROR_BAD_MAC_READ . with internet explorer I can see the site correctly.

to better investigate I've export the certificate and key in another apache asf (2.4) and it works always, even with firefox. so I assume is not a certificate problem but something between firefox and the http server. any firefox browser on any client has this error with this webserver. Any idea?

7.0.0.35 is no longer fit for any purpose, it's no wonder a TLS client from 2019 cannot talk to an implementation from 2014.

  • thanks for reply! I know, but we are in a particular environment and at now is not possible to upgrade. my question is which reason could determine this? chiper, etc... ? – Gabriele Nov 07 '19 at 07:52
  • Probably something like no support for extended master secret – covener Nov 07 '19 at 12:32
  • Thanks, the ihs was 7.0.0.0, I've upgrade it to 7.0.0.41 and now it works. – Gabriele Nov 07 '19 at 15:14
