Hi,

I am running Nagios Core 4.4.5 on CentOS Linux release 7.7.1908 (Core). I have a specific question regarding TLS/SSL Cipher Suites vulnerability. Is there a way to detect any cipher suites vulnerability using Nagios Core Plugin and send alert notifications mentioning that the below cipher suites are weak reported by https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/ and https://testssl.sh/ testing tools.

For example below are the weak cipher suites reported

Weak Cipher Suites

Code: Select all

AES128-GCM-SHA256
AES128-SHA256
AES256-GCM-SHA384
AES256-SHA256
ECDHE-RSA-AES128-SHA256
ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA384

For example below are the strong cipher suites reported

Strong Cipher Suites

Code: Select all

ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256
ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256
ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-SHA256
ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384
ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384
ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-SHA384

Nagios version running

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg

I didn't find anything specific for this, but I did find a couple of interesting ones that may help you either directly or to create a plugin that will provide what you're looking for:
