Last updates introduce weak SSL TLS cipher

[xofox25]

Describe the bug
Doing a SSL Labs (https://www.ssllabs.com) check capped the grade to B because of weak SSL cipher accepted.
I saw this with my monitoring tool (PRTG from paessler)
All my domain / subdomain managed by NPM are impacted.

Nginx Proxy Manager Version
jc21/nginx-proxy-manager:2.9.20
or
jc21/nginx-proxy-manager:2.9.21

To Reproduce
test your site with https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/index.html

Expected behavior
Cipher TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.0 denied

Screenshots

TLSv1 and TLSv1.1 aren't supported anymore since version 2.9.17 of NPM (that's a bug imo). So in combination with the invalid HSTS policy message from SSL Labs I'm pretty sure there is something like a reverse proxy between SSL Labs and your NPM or you're yousing an older version of NPM (something before 2019-05-02) or you changed your ssl-ciphers.conf but even then the NPM version has to be something < 2.9.17.

I haven't changed anything on my conf. Just have this issue after a watchtower process update.

To retrieve my A+ grade, I found a workaround :
Using the file _forced_ssl.conf with the following content :

{% if certificate and certificate_id > 0 -%}
{% if ssl_forced == 1 or ssl_forced == true %}
    ssl_protocols TLSv1.2 TLSv1.3;
    ssl_ciphers ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE-ECDSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305:ECDHE-RSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305:DHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:DHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384;
    ssl_prefer_server_ciphers off;
{% endif %}
{% endif %}

and adding it in volume in the docker-compose.yml

• ./_forced_ssl.conf:/app/templates/_forced_ssl.conf:ro

Finally, just need made a change in certificate tab of the proxy host to be ok

We have recently detected the same issue, but non of the workarounds helped us. Finally, the cause of the problem was with CloudFlare and after following the steps in the next article, we got the A+ rating:
