Is there any current solution to have RSA 186-4 in OpenSSL FIPS (now, even if this means an upgrade ?) Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://openssl.6102.n7.nabble.com/RSA-and-FIPS-186-4-in-OpenSSL-1-0-1e-fips-2-0-9-tp61753p61769.html Sent from the OpenSSL - User mailing list

Sorry, I forgot: What about the code itself, if we do not mind the validation ? Is the 185-4 RSA compatible code present in any OpenSSL/FIPS module ? -- View this message in context: http://openssl.6102.n7.nabble.com/RSA-and-FIPS-186-4-in-OpenSSL-1-0-1e-fips-2-0-9-tp61753p61774.html Sent

What would then be the permitting conditions to pursue a new validation ? If you don't mind me asking. I have read several notes you have on the subject and I agree that the whole thing is of Dedalus proportions. In a nutshell what would be these conditions ? Thanks, much appreciated. --

Fair enough (in this context). But what about the code itself, is it ready to be RSA 186-4 compliant ? And, if we go through a validation, can OpenSSL benefit from it ? -- View this message in context:

Hello, I have read about the use of FIPS_rsa_x931_generate_key_ex() for 186-4 compliance.  We are using OpenSSL 1.0.1e with the fips-2.0.9 module.    Would it make functional sense using those versions to patch RSA_generate_key_ex() (../crypto/rsa/rsa_gen.c) to have:  #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS
