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:
1536bit group from RFC3526 is not allowed in FIPS mode according to 'SP800-56A rev 3'

NSS should not allow this group regardless of what DH-MIN is set in the policy.

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

nss-3.53.1-11

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
We have reproducer in /CoreOS/nss/Sanity/Well-known-DH-parameters

1. Run the test on rhel8 machine in fips mode, but before executing the test change DH-MIN to be lower than 1536 in the policy.


Actual results:
'Testing rfc3526-group-5-1536.pem' fails because the DH group is allowed and the connection is successful.


Expected results:
2. The DH group is not allowed and NSS aborts the connection.
