Wakanda SSL: Use a stronger certificate hash function than SHA-1?
Following the Wakanda SSL Documentation, I've set up a self-signed certificate to test before I engage a certificate authority. However, Firefox lets me know that my webserver is using a SHA-1 certificate (below), which is undesirable- I want at least SHA-256.
Is there a way to control this; do I have any options here?
Solution
Wakanda doesn't actually provide a certificate.
Wakanda uses the certificate you provide.
All you need to do is get a new certificate.
You can take your existing CSR to a certificate authority and purchase a signed certificate, and it will be SHA256. You can even use https://www.startssl.com and get a signed SHA256 certificate for free.
If you want to go self signed then just make sure to use the -sha256 parameter like this:
openssl req -x509 -sha256 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:1024 -keyout key.pem -out cert.pem
