OpenSSL FIPS support

    Details

    • Type: Improvement
    • Status: Closed
    • Priority: Minor
    • Resolution: Fixed
    • Affects Version/s: None
    • Fix Version/s: 2.0.0b2
    • Component/s: None
    • Labels:
      None
    • Environment:

      OpenSSL backend where the OpenSSL FIPS module is supported.

      Description

      OpenSSL has an option for a FIPS 140-2 level 1 module.
      Issues are:

      • configure (add an enable-fips)
      • build (fipsld is for C, not for C++)
      • call FIPS_mode_set(1) in C_Initialize (or OSSLCryptoFactory)
      • apply FIPS constraints to length/approved algos
      • update test suites
        (PS: according to my prototype the main issue is the second one)
