Question


Which signature algorithms are supported on PAN-OS for SSL inbound inspection ?

Environment


  • Palo Alto Firewall.
  • PAN-OS 8.0 and above.
  • SSL inbound inspection configured.


Answer


Palo Alto Firewall supports SSL inbound inspection with the following hash algorithms. Enable the web server with only following signature hash algorithms,
  • RSA, MD5
  • RSA, MD2
  • RSA, SHA
  • RSA, SHA256
  • RSA, SHA384
  • RSA, SHA512
  • ECDSA, SHA
  • ECDSA, SHA256
  • ECDSA, SHA384
  • ECDSA, SHA512


Additional Information


  • A web-server is hosted on Apache or IIS server.
  • The connection fails with Decrypt Error due to unsupported signature hash algorithm in server key exchange.
  • When server key exchange is completed using ECDHE, the client offers Signature Hash Algorithms that might have 'pss' if using Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox.
  • The server can select 'pss' signature hash algorithm that is not supported on PAN-OS.
Following is an example where the decryption was failed due to 'pss' signature hash algorithm.
