RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Kaleem 2014-02-18 05:29:48 UTC
Description of problem:

While verifying https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1025317 , i figured out that some more fixes required which i pasted in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1025317#c5 but these can be fixed in 7.1 release and RHEL-7.0 bug can be verified. So filing this bug.

Comment 4 Matthew Harmsen 2015-07-08 23:25:58 UTC
Since the referenced bugs are closed, I copied the offending contents into this bug:

I think in below paragraphs/lines "SSL 3" should be "SSLv3" and "SSL 2" shoould be "SSLv2" in mod_nss.html

Line 1461-62:
=============
<h1><a name="SSLv2"></a>Why is SSLv2 disabled?</h1>
All major browsers (Firefox, Internet Explorer, Mozilla, Netscape, Opera, and
Safari) support SSL 3 and TLS so there is no need for a web server to support
SSL 2. There are some known attacks against SSL 2 that are handled by SSL
3/TLS. SSLv2 also doesn't support useful features like client authentication.
<br>

Line 418:
=========
</big></big><br>
Specifies the number of seconds SSL 3 sessions are cached.<br>
<br>

Line 405:
=========
<br>
Specifies the number of seconds SSL 2 sessions are cached.<br>
<br>

Comment 5 Matthew Harmsen 2015-07-08 23:36:04 UTC
Simple patch for mod_nss-1.0.11-2.el7 as it is only a few documentation changes.

Comment 7 Scott Poore 2015-10-07 17:50:29 UTC
