RHBA-2014:1233 - coolkey bug fix update
Synopsis
coolkey bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Topic
Updated coolkey packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.
Description
Coolkey is a smart card support library for the CoolKey, CAC, and PIV smart cards.
This update fixes the following bug:
- Previously, the number of encryption keys that the coolkey applet can process was increased from 8 to 24. However, this number was not increased in the coolkey library. As a consequence, a token running the coolkey application failed to recover the encryption key, when nine or more encryption keys were set by the coolkey applet. This update introduces the support for up to 24 encryption keys to the coolkey library, and recovering more than 8 encryption keys now proceeds correctly. (BZ#995560)
Users of coolkey are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied.
