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 Rob Crittenden 2014-11-20 19:44:37 UTC 
Description of problem:

NSS 3.15.1+ supports TLSv1.2, mod_nss can enable it now as well. Support was added to NSS via BZ https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=480514

Support for 1.2 was added upstream to mod_nss in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1119484

This package should be rebased to the upstream version to take advantage of this capability.

*** Bug 1169870 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Comment 5 Matthew Harmsen 2014-12-16 01:31:44 UTC 
Although 1169870 was marked as a duplicate of this bug, it should be noted that as a part of fixing this bug, the 'SSLv3,' string should be removed from the 'NSSProtocol SSLv3,TLSv1.0,TLSv1.1' line in the default 'nss.conf' file.

Patch to downgrade httpd 2.4 down to httpd 2.2

Re-based source tarball to 'mod_nss-1.0.10-1.fc21' in order to pick up all of the TLSv1.2 changes.

Since the 'mod_nss-1.0.10-1.fc21' source tarball was originally written    against httpd 2.4, it was necessary to construct the attached patch in order to run this code against httpd 2.2 on RHEL 6.

Created attachment 983595 [details]
Patch to downgrade httpd 2.4 down to httpd 2.2 (spec file)

Merged spec files primarily using 'mod_nss-1.0.10-1.fc21' build logic while keeping the changelog history of 'mod_nss-1.0.8-21.el6'.
