SSLVersionFallbackMin

Minimum TLS version to fallback to
Last updated October 8, 2024
Deprecated

This policy was removed in M53 after TLS version fallback was removed from Google Chrome. When a TLS handshake fails, Google Chrome would previously retry the connection with a lesser version of TLS in order to work around bugs in HTTPS servers. This setting configures the version at which this fallback process will stop. If a server performs version negotiation correctly (i.e. without breaking the connection) then this setting doesn't apply. Regardless, the resulting connection must still comply with SSLVersionMin. If this policy is not configured or if it is set to "tls1.2" then Google Chrome no longer performs this fallback. Note this does not disable support for older TLS versions, only whether Google Chrome will work around buggy servers which cannot negotiate versions correctly. Otherwise, if compatibility with a buggy server must be maintained, this policy may be set to "tls1.1". This is a stopgap measure and the server should be rapidly fixed.
