Need information on Cipher support for FileZilla

#1 Post by linkjoy123 » 2022-11-14 19:39

I need to know what ciphers Filezilla supports, for incoming client connections.

Also, depending on how they connect with SFTP, do I need an official certificate through GlobalSign for example, or will the self-signed suffice?

You seem to be confusing SFTP with FTPS. Please clarify.

SFTP does not use certificates. FileZilla Server does not speak SFTP.

aes-256-ctr has never been ratified for use with FTPS.

Hello, a client is using the next set of algorithms for SFTP (no FTPS): algorithmName="server_host_key" jschProposal="ecdsa-sha2-nistp256,ecdsa-sha2-nistp384,ecdsa-sha2-nistp521,rsa-sha2-512,rsa-sha2-256"
Based on the error received in client, Filezilla Server proposes only serverProposal="ssh-ed25519"

Can you please confirm if we can add more algorithms to the supported list? And how?

Thanks in advance.

You need to create another SFTP Host key using RSA, or import such a one.

Closing this topic. Before asking questions, at the very least look at traffic on the wire.
