Description

In https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-vault/issues/635 support was added for configuring the enabled client TLS protocols and cipher suites to be configured via Spring application properties. It would be great if we could also configure these via Spring application properties for the Spring Cloud Vault client.

The org.springframework.vault.config.EnvironmentVaultConfiguration.sslConfiguration() was updated to set protocol and cipher suites on the org.springframework.vault.support.SslConfiguration instance returned. The org.springframework.cloud.config.server.environment.vault.SpringVaultClientConfiguration.sslConfiguration() method could be updated to do the same.

Research direction

Read org.springframework.cloud.config.server.environment.vault.SpringVaultClientConfiguration.sslConfiguration() alongside org.springframework.vault.config.EnvironmentVaultConfiguration.sslConfiguration(), which already sets the protocol and cipher-suite values. Update the Spring Cloud Vault client configuration so Spring application properties can configure both values, then verify that the returned SslConfiguration contains them.
