Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Allow SHA1 in seclevel 1 if rh-allow-sha1-signatures =
yes
NOTE: This patch is ported from CentOS 9 / RHEL 9, where it allows SHA1
in seclevel 2 if rh-allow-sha1-signatures = yes. This was chosen because
on CentOS 9 and RHEL 9, the LEGACY crypto policy sets the security level
to 2.
On Fedora 35 (with OpenSSL 1.1) the legacy crypto policy uses security
level 1. Because Fedora 36 supports both OpenSSL 1.1 and OpenSSL 3, and
we want the legacy crypto policy to allow SHA-1 in TLS, the only option
to make this happen consistently in both OpenSSL 1.1 and OpenSSL 3 is
SECLEVEL=1 (which will allow SHA-1 in OpenSSL 1.1) and this change to
allow SHA-1 in SECLEVEL=1 with rh-allow-sha1-signatures = yes (which
will allow SHA-1 in OpenSSL 3).
The change from CentOS 9 / RHEL 9 cannot be applied unmodified, because
rh-allow-sha1-signatures will default to yes in Fedora (according to our
current plans including until F38), and the security level in the
DEFAULT crypto policy is 2, i.e., the unmodified change would weaken the
default configuration.
