Why the libreswan package is going through its own FIPS certification if all crypto used by libreswan is done with nss.
Issue
-
We see libreswan and NSS for RHEL 7.1 being referenced here
-
What crypto code (algorithms or protocols) is being evaluated as part of "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.1 Libreswan Cryptographic Module" ?
-
I searched all binaries in libreswan packaging and did 'ldd' on all of them in /usr/libexec/ipsec/* and I can't find any libraries referenced from the libreswan package.
-
What 'Cryptographic modules' are included in Libreswan that are not included in existing nss and nss-softokn/nss-softoknfreebl ?
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 7
