Description Jiri Kastner 2010-06-28 09:49:57 UTC

Description of problem:
nss doesn't provide SHA224 hash algorithm support, so rpm signed with SHA224 signature is not installable as it relies on nss. because weaker hash algorithms are supported, SHA224 should be also supported.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
nss-3.12.6-3.el6

How reproducible:

Comment 1 RHEL Program Management 2010-06-28 10:02:54 UTC

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux major release.  Product Management has requested further
review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux Major release.  This request is not yet committed for
inclusion.

Comment 2 Bob Relyea 2010-07-01 23:53:39 UTC

This requires changes to a upstream FIPS token. It's a little late in the game to be asking this for RHEL 6.0. I'm changing the target to 6.1.

Comment 6 RHEL Program Management 2010-11-22 23:54:57 UTC

Development Management has reviewed and declined this request.  You may appeal
this decision by reopening this request.

Comment 7 Elio Maldonado Batiz 2014-02-18 15:48:13 UTC

SHA224 support was added over two years ago with nss-3.13.
