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 Eduard Benes 2012-07-11 08:23:11 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #826264 +++

Description of problem:
Current openswan codes does not have support for aes-gcm algorithms.

--- Additional comment from avagarwa on 2012-05-29 17:37:46 EDT ---

Since Openswan uses NSS crypto library for cryptograhic operation with IKE, NSS should must support aes-gcm too. I have created upstream bug for this:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=755500 

The attached patch only solves the issues with ESP as kernel has support for aes-gcm.
Comment 2 Avesh Agarwal 2012-11-12 17:57:17 UTC 
sorry, by mistake updated the wrong bug, i was supposed to update 826264.
Comment 4 Elio Maldonado Batiz 2013-02-15 18:29:49 UTC 
Support for AES Galois Counter Mode was added upstream in nss-3.14. See 
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=373108 which is now in FIXED status.
