CredSSP Encryption Oracle Remediation RDP issue

 

CredSSP Encryption Oracle Remediation RDP issue

An update released by Microsoft (KB 4093492)on May 8, 2018, for Windows 10 Operation System was targeted to change the default settings CredSSP from Vulnerable to Mitigated.

However, post patching this caused an issue where the patched clients were blocked from communicating with unpatched servers over RDP protocols.

This has been reported to cause an error thrown by Windows RDP as below:



Solution:

Use the group policy settings changes described below to rollback the changes to ‘Vulnerable’ state to allow RDP access.

1. Open Group Policy Editor, by executing gpedit.msc

2. Policy path: Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> System -> Credentials Delegation

Run gpedit.msc and expand Administrative Templates


Expand System

Expand Credential Delegation
Edit Encryption Oracle Remediation
Select Enabled and change Production Level to Vulnerable

3. Run the command gpupdate /force to apply group policy settings.

4. Your remote desktop connection will be working fine now.

If you cannot use gpedit.msc, you can make the same change by using the registry, as follows:

  1. Open a Command Prompt window as Administrator.

  2. Run the following command to add a registry value:
    REG ADD HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System\CredSSP\Parameters\ /v AllowEncryptionOracle /t REG_DWORD /d 2
