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 2021-04-23 11:08:22 UTC 
Description of problem:
When OpenSSL is executed on a system where call to getrandom() fails with EAGAIN, and access to /dev/random is forbidden (where fallback to /dev/random is expected), openssl crashes with double free

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
openssl-3.0.0-0.alpha13.1.el9.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run the scenario described in bug 1648369

Actual results:
free(): double free detected in tcache 2
/usr/share/beakerlib/testing.sh: line 873:  3489 Aborted                 (core dumped) LD_PRELOAD=./libpreload.so strace -o trace -e inject=getrandom:error=EAGAIN openssl rand -out ./test 1024

Expected results:
if both getrandom() and /dev/urandom are inaccessible:
crypto/fips/fips.c:154: OpenSSL internal error: FATAL FIPS SELFTEST FAILURE
/usr/share/beakerlib/testing.sh: line 873:  5098 Aborted                 (core dumped) LD_PRELOAD=./libpreload.so strace -o trace -e inject=getrandom:error=EAGAIN openssl rand -out ./test 1024

when opening /dev/urandom passes for the second time, openssl should work ok
