Still an issue in bionic after update today (2019-06-13).

Setting

ssl.disable-client-renegotiation = "disable"

in lighttpd.conf helps, but is not really a solution, because of CVE-2009-3555.

lighttpd 1.4.45-1ubuntu3
libssl1.1 1.1.1-1ubuntu2.1~18.04.1

1) I didn't write to ask for any help. I am perfectly capable of solving the problem in many ways.

2) I thought you wanted to be informed of this, since google does not give so relevant results on this matter.

3) sorry if I bothered you. Next time I will just keep it to myself.

so long
