Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated libica packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
The libica library contains a set of functions and utilities for accessing the IBM eServer Cryptographic Accelerator (ICA) hardware on IBM System z.
This update fixes the following bug:
- Previously, unmodified data could be tagged as modified when using decryption with the AES-GCM cipher suite. As a consequence, SSH connections could not be established when using AES-GCM, and with some applications, data encrypted using AES-GCM could not be decrypted. With this update, the tag is computed from the ciphertext when decrypting and from the plaintext when encrypting. As a result, SSH connections using AES-GCM are now successfully established, and it is possible to decrypt data encrypted with AES-GCM. (BZ#1506984)
Users of libica 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.
