How are you going to handle the FIPS build issues surrounding Rust right now?

Are all crypto libraries going to build against the underlying OpenSSL (or something else certified)?

Correct all the Rust password storage scheme plugins use OpenSSL (not NSS), so we don't have these issues anymore.

FYI we were able to get the NSS PBKDF2 version working in FIPS (in very recent versions), but the Rust version is much better and more secure.

Thanks,

Thanks,

    Hello,

    For many years now we have been offering Rust plugins, and for those
    that build the server themselves it was possible to disable Rust
    if it
    was not wanted.  This is no longer going to be an option starting
    in the
    next release of 389-ds-base-2.2 (On Fedora 37).  We are upgrading the
    default password storage schema to the Rust password storage scheme
    PBKDF2_SHA256 for its improved security and performance over the
    C/NSS
    version (PBKDF2-SHA256). We are also going to be incorporating
    Rust into
    core parts of the server.  So leaving Rust optional is no longer
    going
    to be an option.

    Sorry for the inconvenience this will impose on people not wanting to
    build with Rust, but this is the direction we are moving in with
    the 389
    project.

    Feel free to ask any questions or voice concerns over this change,
    and
    we will do our best to address them.

    Sincerely,

-- Directory Server Development Team
