CompTIA Linux+ XK0-006 (V8) Practice Question

A security audit has ruled that SSLv2 and SSLv3 must be eliminated from a Linux web server. The administrator is considering replacing the system's OpenSSL package with LibreSSL, which is available in the distribution's repository. Which statement about LibreSSL most directly indicates whether this change will satisfy the compliance requirement?

  • LibreSSL can use TLS 1.3 only when a legacy build flag is enabled, so it is unsuitable for modern HTTPS deployments.

  • LibreSSL's code is an exact clone of OpenSSL 1.1.1 compiled with FIPS-140-2 mode, guaranteeing federal certification.

  • LibreSSL removes elliptic-curve cryptography support and therefore confines users to RSA-only cipher suites.

  • LibreSSL disables support for SSLv2 and SSLv3 by default, eliminating legacy protocol exposure.
