ssl - SSLHandshakeException: Handshake failed on Android N/7.0

I'm working on an app for which the (power)users have to set up their own server (i.e. nginx) to run the backend application. The corresponding domain needs to be configured in the app so it can connect. I've been testing primarily on my own phone (sony z3c) and started developing for 5.1. Later I received an update for 6.0 but still maintained a working 5.1 inside the emulator. Not too long ago, I started to work on an AVD with an image for 7.0 and to my suprise it won't connect to my server, telling me the ssl handshake failed. My nginx configuration is pretty strict, but it works for both 5.1 and 6.0, so .... ?!

Here is what I know:

  • I use v24 for support libs, i.e. my compileSdkVersion is 24.
  • I use Volley v1.0.0.
  • I've tried the TLSSocketFactory, but it doesn't change anything. This seems to be used most of the times to prevent SSL3 use for older SDK versions anyway.
  • I've tried increasing the timeout, but it doesn't change anything.
  • I've tried using HttpURLConnection directly, but it doesn't change anything apart from the stack trace (it's without the volley references, but identical otherwise).

Without the TLSSocketFactory the request are made through a bare request queue, instantiated with Volley.newRequestQueue(context).

This is what I see in android studio:

Since it says SSLV3_ALERT_HANDSHAKE_FAILURE I can only assume it for some reason tries to connect using SSLv3 and fails, but this doesn't make any sense to me whatsoever. It might be a cipher-issue, but how can I tell what it is trying to use ? I would rather not enable a ciphers on the server, make a connection attempt and repeat.

My nginx site uses a let's encrypt certificate and has the following configuration:

ssl_stapling on;
ssl_stapling_verify on;
ssl_trusted_certificate /etc/ssl/certs/lets-encrypt-x1-cross-signed.pem;
ssl_ciphers ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:!aNULL;
ssl_dhparam /etc/ssl/certs/dhparam.pem;
ssl_ecdh_curve secp384r1;
ssl_prefer_server_ciphers on;
ssl_protocols TLSv1.2;

To test these ciphers I've a script and it confirms these ciphers (run on a wheezy vps outside the server's network):

This is a known regression in Android 7.0, acknowledged by Google and fixed sometime before the release of Android 7.1.1. Here is the bug report: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=224438.

To be clear, the bug here is that 7.0 only supports ONE elliptic curve: prime256v1 aka secp256r1 aka NIST P-256, as Cornelis points out in the question. So if your users are facing this issue, these are the workarounds available to you (ignoring the fact that your users should ideally just upgrade to Android 7.1.1):

  • Configure your server to use the elliptic curve prime256v1. For example, in Nginx 1.10 you do this by setting ssl_ecdh_curve prime256v1;.

  • If that doesn't work, use older cipher suites that don't rely on elliptic-curve cryptography (e.g., DHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384) (make sure you understand what you're doing here in terms of data security)

NOTE: I am not an expert in elliptic-curve cryptography, make sure to do your own research on the security implications of my suggestions. Here are some other links I referred to while writing this answer:
