Description

Inconsistent "SSLVerifyDepth" value in the following 2 Apache configuration files (Foreman and Katello) can cause Apache to request unnecessary SSL secure renegotiation to the client (such as web browser). This will trigger security alert to an environment that running IPS, such as MacAfee IPS. Change the value of this directive to '3' in both file does prevent the renegotiation.

/etc/httpd/conf.d/05-foreman-ssl.conf
/etc/httpd/conf.d/05-foreman-ssl.d/katello.conf

Fixes #27656 - Set SSLVerifyDepth to 3

This matches what theforeman-foreman sets and avoids SSL renegotiations.
