RHBA-2012:0357 - pki-core bug fix and enhancement update

Synopsis

pki-core bug fix and enhancement update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory (none)

Topic

Updated pki-core packages that fix several bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

Red Hat Certificate System is an enterprise software system designed to manage enterprise public key infrastructure (PKI) deployments. pki-core contains fundamental packages required by Red Hat Certificate System, which contain the Certificate Authority (CA) subsystem.

Note: The Certificate Authority component provided by this update is not intended to be used as a standalone server. It is installed and operates as a part of Identity Management (IPA) in Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Bug fixes:

When installing IPA, the installer uses 'sslget' to communicate with the CA. The server sends out a full response to the sslget client, but the client receives only 5 bytes of the encrypted stream. (BZ#772222)

Users should upgrade to these updated pki-core packages, which fix the listed bug.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at This content is not included.https://access.redhat.com/kb/docs/DOC-11259
