While using Ubuntu 20.04, the solution for lowering security and allow acces to some outdated servers I used the following solution Ubuntu 20.04 - how to set lower SSL security level?.

Today I upgraded to 22.04, and the solution won't work any more. I tried some other config file tweaks, but with no success. After some reading I guess it has something to do with the latest openssl 3 installed in Ubuntu 22.04.

Is there a way to be able to use legacy methods in openssl 3, as we did in 20.04?

It works if you change the security level to 0 instead of 1. In the /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf change SECLEVEL from 2 to 0:

CipherString = DEFAULT@SECLEVEL=0
