What is SSL Robot Vulnerability?

SSL Robot is a vulnerability that targets implementations of the SSL/TLS handshake protocol, specifically focusing on the way encryption keys are negotiated between client and server. The attack exploits weak or improperly configured cipher suites, which allow an attacker to manipulate the handshake process and gain unauthorized access to sensitive data.

The vulnerability occurs when a server accepts weak encryption algorithms, allowing an attacker to downgrade the connection to less secure cipher suites. By controlling the handshake process, an attacker can force the use of vulnerable protocols, such as SSL 2.0 or RC4, to decrypt traffic.

Mitigations for SSL Robot involve disabling outdated or weak cipher suites, enforcing modern protocols like TLS 1.2 or TLS 1.3, and ensuring that only strong encryption methods are used during the handshake process.
