List of Supported Ciphers

Hi All,

Is there a place where I can read up the list of ciphers that Roku includes for secure its network connections?

I'm aware of the component roEVPCipher but my understanding is that it's cipher list could differ from the
one that gets used by the RokuOS.

thanks in advance

Re: List of Supported Ciphers

I doubt that the cipher list is documented anywhere. The easiest way to find them is by running Wireshark and see what cipher suites are negotiated.

If you use roUrlTransfer to connect to a secure server, you'll see a set of 31 ciphers available.

However, if you connect to a secure server using any of the UI components (roVideoScreen, etc.), then the only cipher suite supported appears to be TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA. I think this is a bug. It's been reported several times in these forums with no response from Roku.

Here's a Wireshark trace using roUrlTransfer:
