Description Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos 2015-01-06 14:57:29 UTC
Please convert this application to use the system's crypto policy for SSL and TLS:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:CryptoPolicies

If this program is compiled against gnutls, change the default priority string to be "@SYSTEM" or to use gnutls_set_default_priority().

If this program is compiled against openssl, and there is no default cipher list specified, you don't need to modify it. Otherwise replace the default cipher list with "PROFILE=SYSTEM".

In both cases please verify that the application uses the system's crypto policies.

If the package is already using the system-wide crypto policies, or it does not use SSL or TLS, no action is required, the bug can simply be closed.

Comment 1 Cole Robinson 2015-09-21 22:23:38 UTC
Libvirt has used gnutls_set_default_priority since 2011. And we don't directly use the openssl API, so I think we are fine here.
