| Preliminary status and build information for FIPS module v2.0 |
| |
| To build the module do: |
| |
| ./config fipscanisterbuild |
| make |
| |
| Build should complete without errors. |
| |
| Run test suite: |
| |
| test/fips_test_suite |
| |
| again should complete without errors. |
| |
| Run test vectors: |
| |
| 1. Download an appropriate set of testvectors from www.openssl.org/docs/fips |
| those for 2007 are OK. |
| |
| 2. Extract the files to a suitable directory. |
| |
| 3. Run the test vector perl script, for example: |
| |
| cd fips |
| perl fipsalgtest.pl --dir=/wherever/stuff/was/extracted |
| |
| 4. It should say "passed all tests" at the end. Report full details of any |
| failures. |
| |
| Run symbol hiding test: |
| |
| ./config fipscanisteronly -DOPENSSL_FIPSSYMS |
| make |
| |
| This time only the fips utilities should be built. |
| |
| Examine the external symbols in fips/fipscanister.o they should all begin |
| with FIPS or fips. One way to check with GNU nm is: |
| |
| nm -g --defined-only fips/fipscanister.o | grep -v -i fips |
| |
| Known issues: |
| |
| Algorithm tests are pre-2011. |
| The fipslagtest.pl script wont auto run new algorithm tests such as DSA2. |
| Usage of ECDH/DH needs review and adding appropriate self tests. |
| Selftests need updating with larger key sizes in some cases and redundant |
| tests pruned. |
| SP800-90 DRBG needs more work: health checks, continuous PRNG test, |
| entropy gathering, security checks in algorithms, add appropriate RAND method |
| for use by rest of OpenSSL. |
| No CMAC. |
| No CCM. |
