✅ Remediation

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied. This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/articles/11258 Workaround: On OpenShift Container Platform 3.11 it's possible to edit the list of cipher suites offered by the router when performing 'edge', or 're-encrypt' TLS modes. Please follow the documentation [1], and [2] to remove the vulnerable CBC ciphers use the modern, or intermediate cipher suites outlined by Mozilla instead [3]. In 'passthrough' mode TLS termination occurs in the application so that is another way to mitigate the vulnerability.
