Insight
Insight
It was found that the parsing of the NSSCipherSuite option of mod24_nss, which accepts OpenSSL-style cipherstrings, is flawed. If the option is used to disable insecure ciphersuites using the common ! syntax, it will actually enable those insecure ciphersuites. (CVE-2015-5244 )
Solution
Solution
Run yum update mod24_nss to update your system.
