Do I need purchase SSL license? The PxPay payment module cannot connect DPS gate way

[benxp]

I need HELPs!!!!!

I set up the website with zencart and installed the pxpay plugin to accept the credit card payment via DPS. But since lastw week, the PXpay module cannot connect to DPS gateway, everytime it say "The selected payment type is currently not available." I contacted DPS they said they can see there is no any issue at their side but they have disabled SSL 3.0 and only TLS will be available now. Also they will upgrade from SHA-1 to SHA-2 later.

Link as below:

and another:
https://www.paymentexpress.com/News/...SHA-1_with_SHA


I contact my website hosting for helps but they said the issue is Signature algorithm SHA1 is weak and they will ugrade it to SHA2 but as its wildcard shared SSL and it will take time because many of their shared server didn't support SHA2 because of OS version so they can't deploy it yet. They are asking me to purchase a SSL license and also a dedicated IP. Total price will be $170 usd a year.

Is this charge reasonable? Why do we need a standard license for TLS ?

I am considering to change a new webhosting, but do your guys have any idea what kind of webhosting can work for DPS and no hassle in future? How can I indentify a plan will be working for us?

I know little about this kind of security information, Appriciate for any helps from your guys!!!

A SSL won't help it's an issue with the module.

I have modified the module to solve the issue, and should be uploading it soon.

I submitted the new version, should move through moderation by the ZenCart Team without issue

I updated the module http://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=658
Unfortunately I forked and did a merge request on github but before I posted it to Zen-Cart.com, the original author posted my commit to Zen-Cart.com.
So he got the credit At least the community will benefit, which is my overall goal

But all I did was:
in includes/modules/payment/dps_pxpay.php
Line 594 added the "//"

//       curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_SSLVERSION, 3);
