Description Michal Jaegermann 2013-09-01 19:21:57 UTC
Description of problem:

A rawhide update replacing openssh-6.2p2-5.fc20.x86_64 packages with those for openssh-6.2p2-6.1.fc21.x86_64 produced the following in logs:

sshd: fips.c(137): OpenSSL internal error, assertion failed: FATAL FIPS SELFTEST FAILURE
sshd: fips.c(137): OpenSSL internal error, assertion failed: FATAL FIPS SELFTEST FAILURE
sshd[779]: Received signal 15; terminating.
sshd: fips.c(137): OpenSSL internal error, assertion failed: FATAL FIPS SELFTEST FAILURE
systemd: sshd.service: main process exited, code=killed, status=6/ABRT
systemd: Unit sshd.service entered failed state.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
openssh-6.2p2-6.1.fc21

How reproducible:
I do not really now.  It is not obvious how to reproduce. I do not recall seeing such error on any other occasion.

Additional info:
Restarting sshd service after the whole update transaction completed made it running again.
