| Description | ||||
| FIPS 140-3-validated packages are available from TuxCare here: https://tuxcare.com/fips-for-almalinux/ The original community packages must be replaced with the versions that have gone through the CMVP. Satisfies: SRG-OS-000033-GPOS-00014, SRG-OS-000478-GPOS-00223, SRG-OS-000396-GPOS-00176, SRG-OS-000125-GPOS-00065 | ||||

Check Text (C-269126r1107617_chk)
Verify that AlmaLinux OS 9 is using the TuxCare FIPS packages with the following command:
$ rpm -qa | grep -E '^(gnutls|nettle|nss|openssl|libgcrypt|kernel)-[0-9]+' | grep -v tuxcare
If the command returns anything, this is a finding.
Fix Text (F-73058r1101833_fix)
Ensure FIPS-validated packages are in use instead of OS defaults using the following commands:
$ dnf -y upgrade
$ reboot
After rebooting into a FIPS kernel, remove the OS default kernel packages, using for example:
$ dnf remove kernel-5.14.0-284.11.1.el9_2.x86_64 kernel-5.14.0-284.30.1.el9_2.x86_64
$ dnf autoremove
