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 Bohuslav "Slavek" Kabrda 2013-06-25 07:39:15 UTC
python-paste code can fail in few places in fips code due to usage of md5:
- paste/auth/auth_tkt.py - confirming digest of auth ticket - imho this is ok to fail, since md5 is not entirely secure for this purpose
- paste/auth/digest.py - used for authentication purposes - again, seems to be ok to fail, since md5 shouldn't be used for secure authentication
- /paste/session.py - generating session id - again, this seems to be ok to fail, since generating session id should be super secure

Comment 3 Bohuslav "Slavek" Kabrda 2014-06-17 12:48:01 UTC
As per the original bug report, the mentioned functions should be failing in FIPS mode, so I'm closing this bug as wontfix.
