Caveat When operated in approved mode with module SUSE Linux Enterprise OpenSSL 1 Cryptographic Module validated to FIPS 140-3 under Cert. #5238 operating in approved mode. When operated in approved mode with module SUSE Linux Enterprise OpenSSL 3 Cryptographic Module validated to FIPS 140-3 under Cert. #5096 operating in approved mode. When installed, initialized and configured as specified in Section 11 of the Security Policy. No assurance of minimum security of SSPs (e.g., keys, bit strings) that are externally loaded, or of SSPs established with externally loaded SSPs.
Exceptions
  • Non-invasive security: N/A
  • Mitigation of other attacks: N/A
Description The SUSE Linux Enterprise Server Libica Cryptographic Module is a software-hybrid module that provides general purpose cryptographic algorithms to applications running in the user space of the underlying operating system through a C language application program interface (API). The module is composed by a software library, which provides the API and a subset of the cryptographic algorithms, and the Central Processor Assist for Cryptographic Functions (CPACF), which is part of the z16 processor and provides cryptographic algorithms implemented in firmware and hardware.

Automated analysis

Automated inference - use with caution

All attributes shown in this section (e.g., links between certificates, products, vendors, and known CVEs) are generated by automated heuristics and have not been reviewed by humans. These methods can produce false positives or false negatives and should not be treated as definitive without independent verification. This applies equally to the Cross-references section below. If you want to know more about how this data is computed and how reliable it is, see our documentation on automated analysis. If you believe any information here is inaccurate or harmful, please submit feedback.
