With this update, the implementation of the AES encryption algorithm with the support for AES-NI processor instructions is now enabled also in the FIPS mode.
I forgot to mark the EVP structures in the AESNI engine as FIPS allowed. An advisory has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For more information on therefore solution and/or where to find the updated files, please follow the link below. You may reopen this bug report if the solution does not work for you. http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHEA-2011-0868.html |
