Doc Text:
.OpenSSL generated private keys encrypted with 3DES using the req tool OpenSSL req tool previously was generating private key files encrypted with the 3DES algorithm. As it is considered weak now, and is not an algorithm included in FIPS certification of RHEL-9, the generated files will now use AES-256-CBC instead. The overall file format: PKCS#8, with PBES2 and PBKDF2 remains unchanged.
