Private Key Format Different in FIPS Mode

2013-06-12 Thread Anamitra Dutta Majumdar (anmajumd)
We are using OpenSSL version 0.9.8l And what we find is that the DSA private key formats are different in FIPS and non-FIPS mode In FIPS mode it starts with -BEGIN PRIVATE KEY- Whereas in non-FIPS mode it starts with -BEGIN DSA PRIVATE KEY- I understand that this is expected

Also I found that this works fine with openssl 1.0.1 Where keys are generated in FIPS mode with the following line. Can someone let me know why this change in behavior between 0.9.8l and 1.0.1? -BEGIN DSA PRIVATE KEY- Thanks, Anamitra On 6/12/13 12:01 PM, Anamitra Dutta Majumdar

Hello Steve , Thanks for your response. Is there a corresponding API where we can impose this descert option? -Anamitra On 5/29/13 6:15 PM, Dr. Stephen Henson st...@openssl.org wrote: On Wed, May 29, 2013, Anamitra Dutta Majumdar (anmajumd) wrote: We are trying to create pkcs12 keystore

Hi Dave, This is a close box without a server operator. Is there a way to determine why the cert chain was Disliked. Thanks, Anamitra On 10/26/12 3:14 PM, Dave Thompson dthomp...@prinpay.com wrote: From: owner-openssl-us...@openssl.org On Behalf Of Anamitra Dutta Majumdar (anmajumd) Sent

RE: known answer test and alogorithm test for Diffie-Hellman?

2010-05-06 Thread Anamitra Dutta Majumdar (anmajumd)
Have not seen a response to this. The FIPS_selftest() API does not perform any selt-tests on diffie-Hellman algorithm. Is it because it is a non-approved security function in the FIPS module? Do we need self tests on DH if DH key exchange is used by SSH in the system running in FIPS mode?
