md5 is not an approved algorithm in FIPS mode, and trying to
instantiate a hashlib.md5() will fail when the system is running in
FIPS mode.
md5 is allowed when in a non-security context. There is a plan to
add a keyword parameter (usedforsecurity) to hashlib.md5() to annotate
whether or not the instance is being used in a security context.
In the case where it is not, the instantiation of md5 will be allowed.
See https://bugs.python.org/issue9216 for more details.
Some downstream python versions already support this parameter. To
support these versions, a new encapsulation of md5() is added to
swift/common/utils.py. This encapsulation is identical to the one being
added to oslo.utils, but is recreated here to avoid adding a dependency.
This patch is to replace the instances of hashlib.md5() with this new
encapsulation, adding an annotation indicating whether the usage is
a security context or not.
While this patch seems large, it is really just the same change over and
again. Reviewers need to pay particular attention as to whether the
keyword parameter (usedforsecurity) is set correctly. Right now, all
of them appear to be not used in a security context.
Now that all the instances have been converted, we can update the bandit
run to look for these instances and ensure that new invocations do not
creep in.
With this latest patch, the functional and unit tests all pass
on a FIPS enabled system.

This attempts to import openstack/swift3 package into swift upstream
repository, namespace. This is almost simple porting except following items.
1. Rename swift3 namespace to swift.common.middleware.s3api
1.1 Rename also some conflicted class names (e.g. Request/Response)
2. Port unittests to test/unit/s3api dir to be able to run on the gate.
3. Port functests to test/functional/s3api and setup in-process testing
4. Port docs to doc dir, then address the namespace change.
5. Use get_logger() instead of global logger instance
6. Avoid global conf instance
Ex. fix various minor issue on those steps (e.g. packages, dependencies,
deprecated things)
The details and patch references in the work on feature/s3api are listed
at https://trello.com/b/ZloaZ23t/s3api (completed board)
Note that, because this is just a porting, no new feature is developed since
the last swift3 release, and in the future work, Swift upstream may continue
to work on remaining items for further improvements and the best compatibility
of Amazon S3. Please read the new docs for your deployment and keep track to
know what would be changed in the future releases.
