Upon looking at the source for both python2.7 and python3.5 in xenial, neither checks the return value from EVP_DigestInit in Modules/_hashopenssl.c file.
However, python3.6 (in bionic, cosmic and disco) does have the check. So the check will need to be backported to python 2.7 and python 3.5 in xenial. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1835135 Title: FIPS OpenSSL crashes Python2 hashlib To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python2.7/+bug/1835135/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
