[TechNote] IBM HTTP Server and OpenSSL

IBM HTTP SERVER 는 OpenSSL을 사용하지 않습니다. ^^


Question

How is IBM® HTTP Server (IHS) related to Open SSL?

Answer

On Apache HTTP Server, the SSL functionality is achieved using the module "mod_ssl" which is part of Open SSL. Even though the IBM HTTP Server is based on Apache, it does not use "mod_ssl" for SSL, but rather ships it's own Gskit implementation which interfaces with a module named "mod_ibm_ssl".
Furthermore, OpenSSL (mod_ssl) is not supported as a module within the IBM HTTP Server.
Vulnerabilities which are reported against OpenSSL do not apply to the IBM HTTP Server. For any relevant security issues with IHS, users are encouraged to apply the latest IBM HTTP Server fix pack levels to ensure the web server is patched with latest security fixes.

Display of included vulnerability fixes
The -V option of the httpd.exe command (Windows®) or the apachectl command (UNIX® and Linux®) will list the CVE ids of included vulnerability fixes. Example:
$ /opt/IHS602/bin/apachectl -V
Server version: IBM_HTTP_Server/6.0.2.9 Apache/2.0.47
Server built:   Feb 28 2006 17:44:21

 CVE-2005-2491  CVE-2005-2970  CVE-2005-3352

This list does not necessarily include vulnerabilities which do not apply to IBM HTTP Server on any platform, such as mod_ssl vulnerabilities. It does not necessarily include vulnerabilities already fixed in the base level of Apache included in IBM HTTP Server.
