[users@httpd] Apache 2.4: SSLProtocol directive not taking effect

Hi,

We've been stumped by a configuration problem of our Apache 2.4 server, on
CentOS 7.

Our goal is to prevent the Poodle vulnerability by removing the SSLv3
protocol.

But it seems this directive is not taking any effect:

SSLProtocol All -SSLv3

It's located within a VirtualHost context (in
/etc/httpd/conf.d/example.com.conf):

<VirtualHost 123.456.789.01:443>

SSLProtocol All -SSLv2 -SSLv3
SSLCipherSuite ECDHE-RSA-AES128-SHA256:AES128-GCM-SHA256:RC4:HIGH:!MD5:$
SSLHonorCipherOrder on

And the default (in  /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf)

<VirtualHost _default_:443>

SSLProtocol All -SSLv3
SSLCipherSuite
ECDHE-RSA-AES128-SHA256:AES128-GCM-SHA256:RC4:HIGH:!MD5:!aNULL:!$
SSLHonorCipherOrder on

We have of course restarted Apache, but tests show that SSLv3 is still
enabled.

I'm certain this is a simple problem, but the logs are silent about this
(at LogLevel debug), and we are not able to solve it.

Thanks,

François

Hi,

Not sure anymore that the bug indicated is the one affecting our Apache
installation.  Seems like the SSLCipherSuite directive is also simply
ignored.

This is very peculiar, since any and all directives in a VirtualHost
context is active, except for the ones pertaining to SSL.

What could be a common cause of such behaviour?  We just don't know what to
do...

Regards,

François
