Bug 1057224

Summary: Pluggable ECC in NSS not enabled on RHEL 6 and above [rhel-6.5]
Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 Reporter: Alicja Kario <hkario>
Component: nssAssignee: Elio Maldonado Batiz <emaldona>
Status: CLOSED ERRATA QA Contact: Alicja Kario <hkario>
Severity: high Docs Contact:
Priority: medium    
Version: 6.5CC: amarecek, cfu, emaldona, hannsj_uhl, rrelyea
Target Milestone: rcKeywords: Regression
Target Release: 6.6   
Hardware: Unspecified   
OS: Linux   
Whiteboard:
Fixed In Version: nss-3.15.3-9.el6 nss-util-3.15.3-3.el6 Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: The section in the spec file to set and export the NSS_ENABLE_ECC and NSS_ECC_MORE_THAN_SUITE_B build time environment variables was missing. Consequence: This would prevent NSS from allowing external pkcs #11 cryptograhic modules to support ECC algorithms beyond those specified in suite B thus preventing supprt for pluggable ECC. Fix: The nss spec file has been fixed to include those exports. Result: NSS properly supports puggable ECC.
