Subject: [ANNOUNCEMENT] crypto-policies 20190218-1
Date: Mon, 18 Mar 2019 02:53:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <announce.20190317221405.24980-1-yselkowitz@cygwin.com> (raw)
The following packages have been uploaded to the Cygwin distribution:
* crypto-policies-20190218-1
This package provides a tool update-crypto-policies, which sets the
policy applicable for the various cryptographic back-ends, such as
SSL/TLS libraries. The policy set by the tool will be the default policy
used by these back-ends unless the application user configures them
otherwise.
This is a new addition to the distribution. The latest OpenSSL, GnuTLS,
and NSS have all been configured to use this by default. Applications
still need to be patched to use these instead of overriding the default
config, as described further:
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/CryptoPolicies/
Patches for such packages should be available from Fedora.
