RHEA-2011:1738 - coolkey enhancement update

Synopsis

coolkey enhancement update

Type/Severity

Product Enhancement Advisory (none)

Topic

An enhanced coolkey package is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The coolkey package contains driver support for CoolKey and Common Access Card (CAC) smart card products.

This updated coolkey package adds the following enhancements:

• This update adds support for Personal Identity Verification (PIV) smart cards. (BZ#578690)

• Common Access Cards (CAC) are defined to have exactly three certificates. However, some cards that used the CAC interface supplied one or two certificates only, which may have caused the coolkey utility to fail. CAC smart cards that contain less than three certificates are now supported. (BZ#700907)

Users of PIV and CAC smart cards are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which adds these enhancements.

Solution

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