Local fix

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED:  Users of IBM HTTP Server (powered by        *
    *                  Apache).                                    *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Allow the logging of SSL handshake      *
    *                      transcripts (a diagnostic feature) to   *
    *                      be                                      *
    *                      disabled.                               *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    Prior to GSKit 8.0.50.77, 100% CPU could occur while a failed
    handshake was being logged.  The backtrace showed looping
    related to
    the logging of handshake transcript data.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The directive "SSLHandshakeTranscript"  (ON, OFF) was added.   T
    default value in the targeted fixpacks is ON, because this APAR
    will deliver concurrently with the prerequisite level of GSKit.
    
    If provided as an interim fix prior to the target fixpacks,
    "SSLHandshakeTranscript OFF" can be used to circumvent the
    defect.
    
    This fix is targeted for IBM HTTP Server fix packs:
    - 9.0.0.4
    - 8.5.5.12
    - 8.0.0.14
