Qualys connector openning SSL v2/v3 connections

Hello everyone,

We are setting up the Qualys connector for the first time and we have run into an interesting scenario. While attempting to run the qualys_connector.pl script the following messages are displayed:

SSL_connect:before/connect initialization
SSL_connect:SSLv2/v3 write client hello A
SSL_connect:SSLv3 read server hello A
SSL_connect:SSLv3 read server certificate A
SSL_connect:SSLv3 read server key exchange A
SSL_connect:SSLv3 read server done A
SSL_connect:SSLv3 write client key exchange A
SSL_connect:SSLv3 write change cipher spec A
SSL_connect:SSLv3 write finished A
SSL_connect:SSLv3 flush data
SSL_connect:SSLv3 read finished A

</RESPONSE>
</SIMPLE_RETURN>

Understanding that our report is missing parameter (If anyone knows what that is, please let me know), what is also concerning is that the connector is opening a SSL v3 connection to Qualys. Does anyone know how to force the connector to TLS 1.x? I have included details of our environment below.

Host OS: RHEL 7.3

Perl version: v5.16.3

Perl modules installed with versions:

  • IO::Socket::SSL v2.046
  • XML::Simple v2.22
  • XML::Twig v3.52
  • Net::IP v1.26
  • YAML::XS v0.63
  • LWP::UserAgent v 6.19
  • Net::SSL v2.86

This is a supported Host Input Connector.  You can open a TAC support case and get help directly from the support team.
