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 Alicja Kario 2016-10-18 17:56:13 UTC 
Description of problem:
When Client Hello with TLSv1.2 version and TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV at first or second position is received by the server, the server rejects the connection with a a handshake_failure alert.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
openssl-1.0.1e-48.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
  openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout localhost.key -out localhost.crt -subj /CN=localhost -nodes -batch
  openssl s_server -key localhost.key -cert localhost.crt -www

In different console:
  git clone https://github.com/tomato42/tlsfuzzer.git
  pushd tlsfuzzer
  git clone https://github.com/tomato42/tlslite-ng.git .tlslite-ng
  ln -s .tlslite-ng/tlslite tlslite
  git clone https://github.com/warner/python-ecdsa.git .python-ecdsa
  ln -s .python-ecdsa/ecdsa ecdsa
  PYTHONPATH=. python scripts/test-fallback-scsv.py

Actual results:
...
