[jira] [Commented] (QPID-7113) [Java Broker] Add ability to select cipher suite during TLS negotiation based on Broker side cipher suite order

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-7113?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15169336#comment-15169336 ] 

Keith Wall commented on QPID-7113:
----------------------------------

This will involve enabling using the JDK 8 only feature:

https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/javax/net/ssl/SSLParameters.html#setUseCipherSuitesOrder-boolean-

This call needs to be made in the reflective way, so to maintain compatibility with JDK7.

> During TLS handshaking, the client requests to negotiate a cipher suite from a list of cryptographic options that it supports, starting with its first preference. Then, the server selects a single cipher suite from the list of cipher suites requested by the client. Normally, the selection honors the client's preference. 
> Broker should be able to select cipher suites based on its own preference rather than the client's preference in order to mitigate the risks of using weak cipher suites.
