![]() APAR status Closed as program error. Error description ZOS.e 1.4 WebSphere W502003 in Base Mode (not in Deployment Manager mode) java.fullversion = J2RE 1.3.1 IBM OS/390 Persistent Reusable VM build cm131s-20031114 (JIT enabled: jitc) IBM HTTP Server (in IMWEBSR5 address space). Problem: Adding Cipher Suites on the 'SSL Configuration Repertoires' screen puts the Cipher Suites in alphabetical order. This puts the 40 bit Cipher Suites in top of the 128 and 256 Suites, and 40 bit encryption will be selected. Appears that the webui code is arranging Cipher suites alphabetically rather than the order the customer enters them. I believe the order is critical as to which one gets selected , so we should not be ordering them any differently than how they are entered. the the webui code is arranging Cipher suites alphabetically rather than the order the customer enters them. This is the implementation in the base codeLocal fix no local fix availableProblem summary **************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of WebSphere Application Server * * V5.0 for z/OS * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Cipher Suites on the SSL Configuration * * Repertoires page are rearranged * * (alphabetized), not kept as entered. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** On the SSL Configuration Repertoires screen of the Administrative Console, the list of selected Cipher Suites is rearranged in alphabetical order. It should be maintained in user-selected order so that items are listed in order of preference.Problem conclusion The Java class used to maintain the list of selected items automatically alphabetized the items. The code was changed to use a different class which keeps the items in the order they were added to the list. APAR PQ87327 is associated with SERVICE LEVEL W502008 of WebSphere Application Server V5.0 for z/OS.Temporary fix Comments
