+ WARNING
|
||
|
|
+ -------
|
||
|
|
+
|
||
|
|
+ This version of OpenSSL is built in a way that supports operation in
|
||
|
|
+ the so called FIPS mode. Note though that the library as we build it
|
||
|
|
+ is not FIPS validated and the FIPS mode is present for testing purposes
|
||
|
|
+ only.
|
||
|
|
+
|
||
|
|
+ This version also contains a few differences from the upstream code
|
||
|
|
+ some of which are:
|
||
|
|
+ * The FIPS integrity verification check is implemented differently
|
||
|
|
+ from the upstream FIPS validated OpenSSL module. It verifies
|
||
|
|
+ HMAC-SHA256 checksum of the whole libcrypto shared library.
|
||
|
|
+ * The module respects the kernel FIPS flag /proc/sys/crypto/fips and
|
||
|
|
+ tries to initialize the FIPS mode if it is set to 1 aborting if the
|
||
|
|
+ FIPS mode could not be initialized. It is also possible to force the
|
||
|
|
+ OpenSSL library to FIPS mode especially for debugging purposes by
|
||
|
|
+ setting the environment variable OPENSSL_FORCE_FIPS_MODE.
|
||
|
|
+ * If the environment variable OPENSSL_NO_DEFAULT_ZLIB is set the module
|
||
|
|
+ will not automatically load the built in compression method ZLIB
|
||
|
|
+ when initialized. Applications can still explicitely ask for ZLIB
|
||
|
|
+ compression method.
|
||
|
|
+ * There is added a support for EAP-FAST through TLS extension. This code
|
||
|
|
+ is backported from OpenSSL upstream development branch.
