Title:
Password authentication in FIPS-compliant mode
Status in QEMU:
Invalid
Bug description:
The documentation states, that:
"The VNC protocol has limited support for password based
authentication. (...) Password authentication is not supported when
operating in FIPS 140-2 compliance mode as it requires the use of the
DES cipher."
Would it be possible for qemu to use a different cipher and re-enable
password as an option in VNC console? Is there a technical reason for
not using a stronger cipher?
