### Changes between 3.3 and 3.4 [xx XXX xxxx]
+ * Add FIPS indicators to the FIPS provider.
+ FIPS 140-3 requires indicators to be used if the FIPS provider allows
+ non-approved algorithms. An algorithm is approved if it passes all
+ required checks such as minimum key size. By default an error will
+ occur if any check fails. For backwards compatibility individual
+ algorithms may override the checks by using either an option in the
+ FIPS configuration OR in code using an algorithm context setter.
+ Overriding the check means that the algorithm is not FIPS compliant.
+ OSSL_INDICATOR_set_callback() can be called to register a callback
+ to log unapproved algorithms. At the end of any algorithm operation
+ the approved status can be queried using an algorithm context getter.
+ FIPS provider configuration options are set using 'openssl fipsinstall'.
+
+ Note that new FIPS 140-3 restrictions have been enforced such as
+ RSA Encryption using PKCS1 padding is no longer approved.
+ Documentation related to the changes can be found on the [fips_module(7)]
+ manual page.

+ [fips_module(7)]: https://docs.openssl.org/master/man7/fips_module/#FIPS indicators

+ *Shane Lontis, Paul Dale and Po-Hsing Wu*
+
* Add debuginfo Makefile target for unix platforms to produce
a separate DWARF info file from the corresponding shared libs.
*Michael Baentsch*
- * Add FIPS provider configuration option to enforce the a minimal
- MAC length check. The option '-no_short_mac' can optionally be
- supplied to 'openssl fipsinstall'.
-
- *Paul Dale*
-
* Redesigned Windows use of OPENSSLDIR/ENGINESDIR/MODULESDIR such that
what were formerly build time locations can now be defined at run time
with registry keys. See NOTES-WINDOWS.md
If present, the module is activated. The value assigned to this name is not
significant.

The FIPS module normally enters an internal error mode if any self test fails.
continuous test will return an error code if its continuous test fails. The
operation may then be retried if the error mode has not been triggered.

-
-This indicates if run-time checks related to enforcement of security parameters
-such as minimum security strength of keys and approved curve names are used.
-A value of '1' will perform the checks, otherwise if the value is '0' the checks
-are not performed and FIPS compliance must be done by procedures documented in
-the relevant Security Policy.

+=head2 FIPS indicators
+
+FIPS indicators have been added to the FIPS provider in OpenSSL 3.4.
+FIPS 140-3 requires indicators to be used if the FIPS provider allows non
+approved algorithms. An algorithm is approved if it passes all required checks
+such as minimum key size. By default an error will occur if any check fails.
+For backwards compatibility individual algorithms may override the checks by
+using either an option in the FIPS configuration (See
+L<fips_config(5)/FIPS indicator options>) OR in code using an algorithm context
+setter. Overriding the check means that the algorithm is not FIPS compliant.
+L<OSSL_INDICATOR_set_callback(3)> can be called to register a callback to log
+unapproved algorithms. At the end of any algorithm operation the approved status
+can be queried using an algorithm context getter to retrieve the indicator
+(e.g. "fips-indicator").
+An example of an algorithm context setter is "key-check"
+in L<EVP_KDF-HKDF(7)/Supported parameters>.
+
+The following algorithms use "fips-indicator" to query if the algorithm
+is approved:

=head1 NOTES
Some released versions of OpenSSL do not include a validated
release within the same major release series. This flexibility enables
you to address bug fixes and CVEs that fall outside the FIPS boundary.
-The FIPS provider in OpenSSL 3.1 includes some non-FIPS validated algorithms,
-consequently the property query C<fips=yes> is mandatory for applications that
-want to operate in a FIPS approved manner. The algorithms are:
-
-=over 4
-
-=item Triple DES ECB
-
-=item Triple DES CBC
-
-=item EdDSA
-
-=back
+As the FIPS provider still supports non-FIPS validated algorithms,
+The property query C<fips=yes> is mandatory for applications that
+want to operate in a FIPS approved manner.
