Description Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos 2015-01-06 15:06:05 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.

danpb, can identify what actually needs to be done here? I think the only bit that might need changing is this line in qemu.git master:

ui/vnc-tls.c:    rc = gnutls_priority_set_direct(s, priority, NULL);

But maybe your recent patches change that

Comment 2 Daniel Berrangé 2015-09-07 08:39:25 UTC
My new TLS code for QEMU will invoke

        ret = gnutls_set_default_priority(session->handle);

which will solve this.

Comment 3 Cole Robinson 2015-09-30 21:53:01 UTC
That patch is upstream now. Will close this when the next qemu release is in rawhide

Comment 4 Cole Robinson 2015-11-23 20:44:59 UTC
In rawhide now with qemu-2.5.0-rc1
