Hello,
I'm attempting to run Bro 2.5 on a system that is in FIPS 140-2 compliance mode. However, any time that I attempt to run anything Bro related, I end up with MD5 Digest errors, such as:
md5_dgst.c(80): OpenSSL internal error, assertion failed: Digest MD5 forbidden in FIPS mode!
Is there any configuration in Bro somewhere that I can change to solve this, where Bro is compatible with a system that's FIPS enabled? Is that something I would only be able to deal with when compiling Bro from source, or is there a way to run Bro at all in FIPS mode?
Thanks,
- Gary
