SSL: $ssl_ciphers (ticket #870). The variable contains list of ciphers as supported by the client. Known ciphers are listed by their names, unknown ones are shown in hex, e.g., ""AES128-SHA:AES256-SHA:0x00ff". The variable is fully supported only when using OpenSSL 1.0.2 and above. With older version there is an attempt to provide some information using SSL_get_shared_ciphers(). It only lists known ciphers though. Moreover, as OpenSSL uses session data for SSL_get_shared_ciphers(), and it doesn't store relevant data when serializing a session. As a result $ssl_ciphers is only available for new sessions (and not available for reused ones) when using OpenSSL older than 1.0.2.
