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 Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos 2014-06-18 09:30:15 UTC
Description of problem: In order for gnutls to pass FIPS-140-2 validation modifications on the library design and the algorithms used are needed. These need to be implemented and rebased in RHEL.

A quick list of the needed requirements:
* A set of tests following FIPS140-2-IG for HMAC, ciphers and public key algorithms
* Implement tests on library startup and add a state machine
* Implement an integrity test on runtime on the binary
* Zeroize all cryptographic key material after use
* Implement a DRBG from NIST SP-800/90 which will replace the default RNG in FIPS mode.
* Implement self tests for the DRBG
* Disable algorithms that are not needed in FIPS mode
* Key generation and DH parameter generation based on FIPS recommendations.

Comment 1 Tomas Mraz 2014-06-18 09:35:58 UTC
To make it clear - we want to rebase gnutls in RHEL-7.1 to gnutls-3.3.x which is fully API/ABI compatible with the current gnutls in RHEL-7.
