openCryptoki bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated openCryptoki packages that resolve an issue are now available.
Description
The openCryptoki package contains version 2.11 of the PKCS#11 API, implemented
for IBM Cryptocards. This package includes support for the IBM 4758
Cryptographic CoProcessor (with the PKCS#11 firmware loaded), the IBM eServer
Cryptographic Accelerator (FC 4960 on IBM eServer System p), the IBM Crypto
Express2 (FC 0863 or FC 0870 on IBM System z), and the IBM CP Assist for
Cryptographic Function (FC 3863 on IBM System z).
These updated openCryptoki packages provide fix for the following bug:
- previously, the overall performance of cryptographic operations degraded
exponentially with the number of objects per token or open sessions per process.
This was caused by the fact that OpenCryptoki used linked-lists to track objects
and sessions in memory, thus, performing an exhaustive search in practically
every PKCS#11 call. With this update, the overall performance remains constant.
(BZ#627560)
All users of openCryptoki are advised to upgrade to these updated packages,
which resolve this issue.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
