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
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:
Open a Command Prompt window as Administrator.
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
