Description Flags
Add to pkcs11t.h support SHA384 TLS cipher suites - nss-util none

Description Elio Maldonado Batiz 2015-04-27 16:23:24 UTC
Description of problem:

In order to get on the CSfC approved list for TLS protected server, we need to select the following cipher suites in our CC security target:

* TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 as defined in RFC 5289
* TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 as defined in RFC 5289

Support needs to be added in nss-softokn and nss-util packages. nss-util owns the pkcs11t.h headers that nss-softokn needs.
