What is the issue you’re encountering

Security Scanners are reporting that the SSL Certificates support “Weak Ciphers”. This particular domain along with one other domain seem to have 2 certs generated: SHA256 RSA & ECDSA SHA256. We have 3 other domains that were migrated to Cloudflare much later only has ECDSA SHA256. The latter 3 domains do not have the Weak Ciphers. Googling and browsing through the forums indicate that Ciphers can be customized using API but would require ACM to be purchased. Other 3 domains do not have ACM so I don’t see why I would need to purchase ACM to be able to disable weak ciphers. Is there any way to re-generate the Universal SSL so that only ECDSA SHA256 certificate is issued?

What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?

Disabling, waiting for 15 minutes and re-enabling Universal SSL, hoping that newly generated certs would only have ECDSA SHA256 instead of SHA256 RSA & ECDSA SHA256. We have also tried to adjust minimum TLS version from 1.2 to 1.1 and then back to 1.2.

Was the site working with SSL prior to adding it to Cloudflare?

Yes

What is the current SSL/TLS setting?

Full (strict)

Do you see any correlation with the certificate authority? (Google vs Let’s Encrypt)
