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 Ryan Howe 2015-05-18 18:51:05 UTC
Description of problem:  Use to ecdhe-ecdsa-aes128-sha cipher with Curl which is using NSSCipherSuite


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

- nss-sysinit-3.18.0-5.3.el6_6.x86_64

- nss-3.18.0-5.3.el6_6.x86_64
- curl-7.19.7-40.el6_6.4.x86_64
- libcurl-7.19.7-40.el6_6.4.x86_64


How reproducible: Every time trying to use 


Steps to Reproduce: 

 # curl -1ISv --ciphers ecdhe_ecdsa_aes_128_sha https://cleverbot.io

Actual results:

* Initializing NSS with certpath: sql:/etc/pki/nssdb
* Unknown cipher in list: ecdhe_ecdsa_aes_128_sha
* NSS error -5978
* Closing connection #0
curl: (59) Unknown cipher in list: ecdhe_ecdsa_aes_128_sha

Expected results:


* Initializing NSS with certpath: sql:/etc/pki/nssdb
*   CAfile: /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt
  CApath: none
* SSL connection using TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA


Additional info:
Attaching cloned bug for updated documentation on list of ciphers in NSSCipherSuite.
