Request to Disable Deprecated SSH Host Key Algorithms (ssh-rsa and ssh-dss) in Datapower next release

We request IBM to provide a feature in future Datapower releases that allows administrators to disable the use of deprecated SSH host key algorithms such as ssh-rsa and ssh-dss. These algoritms have know vulnerabilities, and continued use can expose systems to security risks. Modern cryptographic standards recommend using stronger key algorithms for SSH key exchanges.

Currently there is no option available to turn off the use of ssh-rsa and ssh-dss host key algoritms in Datapower, and the inability to do so is resulting in security vulnerability reports in our environment. As a result, we are seeking the ability to configure SSH settings to comply with current security best practices and standards.

    I agree with this RFE, this is a required configuration.

    I agree with this RFE - the option for which ciphers to use is available for other DataPower service functions, but not SSH.  This should be a configurable setting.

    I completely agree that the ciphers should not be baked into the firmware  rather admins be allowed select the ciphers needed similar to how we select Ciphers at TLS Client and Server Profiles.

    Although higher versions of DataPower firmware widen the support for strong ciphers, the presence of old and weak ciphers (sha based) flags DataPower servers as Vulnerable in our internal security scans. This is a MUST feature that IBM should prioritize.
