RHBA-2024:4770 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

An update for ktls-utils is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.

Description

In-kernel TLS consumers need a mechanism to perform TLS handshakes on a connected socket to negotiate TLS session parameters that can then be programmed into the kernel's TLS record protocol engine. This package of software provides a TLS handshake user agent that listens for kernel requests and then materializes a user space socket endpoint on which to perform these handshakes. The resulting negotiated session parameters are passed back to the kernel via standard kTLS socket options.

Bug Fix(es):

• Add ktls-utils to RHEL-9.4 (JIRA:RHEL-47101)
