Model: EAP225  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: 5.0.9 Build 20220429 Rel. 43558(4555)

Hi there,

 

I couldn't find anyone specifically talking about this so I thought I would ask it myself. I run OpenVAS on my home network and my AP's flag as having insecure cipher list for TLSv1.2, I have TLSv1.1 and 1.0 disabled, I would like to know if it's possible to remove the insecure ciphers from the list, and also while I'm at it, can I use TLSv1.3?

 

Here's what I get told by OpenVAS;

 

Summary
This routine reports all SSL/TLS cipher suites accepted by a service
where attack vectors exists only on HTTPS services.
Detection Result
'Vulnerable' cipher suites accepted by this service via the TLSv1.2 protocol:

TLS_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA (SWEET32)
Insight
These rules are applied for the evaluation of the vulnerable cipher suites:

- 64-bit block cipher 3DES vulnerable to the SWEET32 attack (CVE-2016-2183).
Detection Method
Details:
SSL/TLS: Report Vulnerable Cipher Suites for HTTPS OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.108031
Version used:
2021-09-20T09:01:50Z
Affected Software/OS
Services accepting vulnerable SSL/TLS cipher suites via HTTPS.
Solution
Solution Type:
Mitigation
The configuration of this services should be changed so
that it does not accept the listed cipher suites anymore.

Thank you very much for feedback this issue.


The issue you mentioned will be updated and fixed in a subsequent release, with the default setting of disabling insecure encryption suites and adding an enable switch in the admin screen.
Please be patient and wait for the subsequent release of the firmware, subject to the final software release notes.

 

Best Regards!

Are there any updates as to a new release of firmware for this device yet? Keen to get the vulnerable ciphers disabled asap.

Sorry for any trouble caused!

 

I haven't been informed of the ETA of the new firmware for this EAP yet, will try to push the R&D team to release the firmware shortly.

If you need any further assistance with the TP-Link products, please feel free to start a thread on the community or submit a ticket email to our technical support team from here.

 

Best Regards!
