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 David Davis 2020-03-06 18:40:01 UTC
I'm on CentOS 7.8 with python3-3.6.8-12.el7.x86_64 which was patched for FIPS (see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1732908). However, I can still call md5 in python3:

>>> import hashlib
>>> m = hashlib.new("md5")
>>> m.update(b"This is a test")
>>> m.digest()
b'\xce\x11NE\x01\xd2\xf4\xe2\xdc\xea>\x17\xb5F\xf39'

Comment 1 David Davis 2020-03-06 18:43:32 UTC
Sorry, my box is actually CentOS 7.5 but the package version is correct.

I can confirm that FIPS is enabled on the box:

$ cat /proc/sys/crypto/fips_enabled
1

And python3 does seem to somewhat work as expected:

$ python3
>>> import hashlib
>>> m = hashlib.md5()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: error:060800A3:digital envelope routines:EVP_DigestInit_ex:disabled for fips
