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.

Doc Text:	_gnutls_ now uses the central certificate store The _gnutls_ packages provide the GNU Transport Layer Security (GnuTLS) library, which implements cryptographic algorithms and protocols such as SSL, TLS, and DTLS. With this update, GnuTLS uses the central certificate store of Red Hat Enterprise Linux through the _p11-kit_ packages. Certificate Authority (CA) updates, as well as certificate black lists, are now visible to applications at runtime.	Story Points:	---

Description Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos 2014-06-18 11:28:21 UTC

Description of problem:  Centralize certificate verification and management. Currently NSS and openssl use p11-kit indirectly (though compat modules, or exported files), thus access centralized trust management. However, GnuTLS doesn't. So the scope of this enhancement is restricted on adding p11-kit support to GnuTLS in order to access the centralized trust management in Fedora/RHEL.

Support for the p11-kit trust store has been added in gnutls 3.3.0, thus only a rebase is needed.

Comment 1 Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos 2014-07-28 10:58:31 UTC

With the rebase of both gnutls and p11-kit, this fix is a simple configuration change in gnutls (i.e., compile with the flag --with-default-trust-store-pkcs11="pkcs11:" as in Fedora 21)
