AES CBC approved encryption algorithm/option in FIPS

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,
I am using the Openssl-1.0.2 with openssl-fips-2.0.9 and have a question?

If AES CBC Encryption is considered vulnerable to an attacker with the capability to inject arbitrary traffic into the plain-text stream, then why is it listed as an approved algorithm/option in table 4A on page 14 of the OpenSSL Security Policy:  http://openssl.org/docs/fips/SecurityPolicy-2.0.9.pdf

I am just looking for a clarification.
Thanks,
Phil
