无法在Firefox 50上通过SSL连接到Jetty 9服务器

Question

I am configuring a Jetty 9.3.x server with Java 8 and with my SSL cert from GoDaddy. After working through the documentation, I have got SSL working on my server and can connect via SSL in internet explorer and chrome. However, with firefox, I can't connect to the server.

I get the error SSL_ERROR_NO_CYPHER_OVERLAP

I have tried tweaking various settings, but nothing has been working for me.

After reading https://www.eclipse.org/jetty/documentation/9.4.x/configuring-ssl.html#configuring-sslcontextfactory-cipherSuites

I decided to enable the debugging they talk about and got the following supported ciphers:

When connecting with FireFox I only get the following output in the logs:

02:40:55,459 [qtp451111351-17] DEBUG org.eclipse.jetty.util.ssl.SslContextFactory  - Customize 2223aad3[SSLEngine[hostname=24.205.233.242 port=54783] SSL_NULL_WITH_NULL_NULL]

Which seems like a good set of ciphers to me, can anyone help identify my issue and help me enable a cipher that firefox will accept?

Answer 1

The issue here turned out to be the version of Java I was using. While it was 1.8, it was update 91, and later versions had the correct combination of ciphers.

Answer 2

I had exact same error but it was not the version of java that caused the issue.

The issue was that the ca certificate was saying for abc.com and server certificate was for xyz.com, so it looked like:

keytool -genkeypair -alias ca -keyalg RSA -validity 45 -keysize 2048 -keystore ca.jks -dname "CN=abc.com" -storepass password
...
keytool -genkeypair -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 45 -alias server -dname "CN=xyz.com" -keystore server.jks -storepass password.

I add this in case other people have the same error and changing the version of java doesnt help.
