the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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 of problem:
When NSS acts as a server, session resumption using session ID does not work for ciphersuites using DHE-DSS algorithm. Even though this behavior is expected for the ticket based resumption, the session ID resumption should work.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
nss-3.21.0-17.el7.x86_64
How reproducible:
always
Steps to Reproduce:
# NSS_CIPHER="0032"
# OPENSSL_CIPHER="DHE-DSS-AES128-SHA"
# openssl dsaparam 2048 < /dev/random > dsaparam.pem
# openssl req -x509 -newkey dsa:dsaparam.pem -keyout dsa-key.pem -out dsa-cert.pem -days 3650 -subj "/CN=localhost" -nodes
# openssl pkcs12 -name dsa -export -inkey dsa-key.pem -out dsa-key.p12 -in dsa-cert.pem -passout "pass:"
# mkdir nssdb
# certutil -N --empty-password -d sql:./nssdb
# certutil -A -d sql:./nssdb/ -n dsa -t ',,' -a -i dsa-cert.pem

# /usr/lib64/nss/unsupported-tools/selfserv -d sql:./nssdb/ -p 4433 -V tls1.0: -H 1 -S dsa -c :$NSS_CIPHER -u &
# sleep 3
# openssl s_client -connect localhost:4433 -CAfile dsa-cert.pem -cipher $OPENSSL_CIPHER -no_ticket -sess_out sess.pem > full.log < /dev/null

# grep "Reused, TLSv1/SSLv3" resumption.log || echo "ERROR: RESUMPTION EXPECTED"
Actual results:
# openssl s_client -connect localhost:4433 -CAfile dsa-cert.pem -cipher $OPENSSL_CIPHER -no_ticket -sess_out sess.pem > full.log < /dev/null

Frantisek: Hubert thinks this might work correctly with newer NSS.
Could you please test it with newer NSS, the one we intend to use for RHEL 7.4.0? Currently that's NSS 3.28.2
I've compiled and tried several versions[0] to no avail - the session resumption still fails both with session IDs and with tickets.

This issue was not selected to be included either in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.7 because it is seen either as low or moderate impact to a small amount of use-cases. The next release will be in Maintenance Support 1 Phase, which means that qualified Critical and Important Security errata advisories (RHSAs) and Urgent Priority Bug Fix errata advisories (RHBAs) may be released as they become available. We will now close this issue, but if you believe that it qualifies for the Maintenance Support 1 Phase, please re-open; otherwise we recommend moving the request to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 if applicable.
