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.

This bug has been copied from bug #1549632 and has been proposed to be backported to 7.5 z-stream (EUS).

    Fixed BZ 1549632: Not able to generate certificate request
    with ECC using pki client-cert-request
    
    Change-Id: I23a51af2c9e9bcc62983332bee22fe3c56ce1409
    Signed-off-by: Amol Kahat <akahat>
    (cherry picked from commit 69434ec08442b92cab8c304caef98200ff71e8e2)

Testing instructions:

Run: pki -d /opt/pki/certdb -c Secret123 -v -p 20080 client-cert-request "UID=testuserEC1,CN=Test User EC1" --algorithm ec --curve nistp256 

It should generate certificate request with ECC.

I tested this Bugzilla on the pki 10.5.1-9.el7.

It works as expected. 

Now we are able to create the certificate request using 'ec' algorithm and curve nistp256.

Verifying this bug.
