Package: chromium Version: 42.0.2311.135-2 Severity: normal Chromium negotiates RC4 despite RFC 7465 stating that clients MUST NOT do so, as it is insecure.
Iceweasel and Firefox have disabled it for most sites, but not all sites, and on the whitelisted sites, mark it as broken. Not only does Chromium negotiate RC4, it displays it with a happy green lock, as if the connection were actually secure. This is misleading. Please disable RC4, as it provides less security than an export cipher. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.0.0-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages chromium depends on: ii libasound2 1.0.28-1 ii libc6 2.19-18 ii libcairo2 1.14.2-2 ii libcap2 1:2.24-8 ii libcups2 1.7.5-11 ii libdbus-1-3 1.8.18-1 ii libexpat1 2.1.0-6+b3 ii libfontconfig1 2.11.0-6.3 ii libfreetype6 2.5.2-4 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.31.1-2+b1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.44.0-3 ii libgnome-keyring0 3.12.0-1+b1 ii libgtk2.0-0 2.24.25-3 ii libharfbuzz0b 0.9.40-2 ii libjpeg62-turbo 1:1.4.0-7 ii libnspr4 2:4.10.8-1 ii libnspr4-0d 2:4.10.8-1 ii libnss3 2:3.19-1 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.36.8-3 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.36.8-3 ii libpci3 1:3.2.1-3 ii libspeechd2 0.8-7 ii libspeex1 1.2~rc1.2-1 ii libsrtp0 1.4.5~20130609~dfsg-1.1 ii libstdc++6 5.1.1-5 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.3-1 ii libxcomposite1 1:0.4.4-1 ii libxcursor1 1:1.1.14-1+b1 ii libxdamage1 1:1.1.4-2+b1 ii libxext6 2:1.3.3-1 ii libxfixes3 1:5.0.1-2+b2 ii libxi6 2:1.7.4-1+b2 ii libxml2 2.9.2+dfsg1-3 ii libxrandr2 2:1.4.2-1+b1 ii libxrender1 1:0.9.8-1+b1 ii libxslt1.1 1.1.28-2+b2 ii libxss1 1:1.2.2-1 ii libxtst6 2:1.2.2-1+b1 ii x11-utils 7.7+3 ii xdg-utils 1.1.0~rc1+git20111210-7.4 chromium recommends no packages.
