<p dir="auto">This bug was originally reported in <a href="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1813384" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1813384</a></p>
<p dir="auto">When an algorithm tested during FIPS power-on self-tests is disabled by the used configuration file (e.g through crypto-policies in Fedora), the FIPS self-tests fail.</p>
<p dir="auto">The suggested way to fix this issue is to postpone the loading of the configuration file during the library initialization</p>

<p dir="auto">100%</p>
<p dir="auto">Steps to Reproduce:</p>
<ul dir="auto">
<li>Create a configuration file which disables one of the tested algorithms. For example containing:</li>

<span id="LC4" class="line" lang="plaintext">[priorities]</span>
<span id="LC5" class="line" lang="plaintext">SYSTEM=NORMAL</span></code></pre>
<ul dir="auto">
<li>Use that configuration and run an application forcing FIPS mode:</li>
