Oracle Solaris Userland Cryptographic Framework

FIPS 140-2 certificate #4142 · Oracle Corporation · data as of 2026-10-09

Oracle Solaris Userland Cryptographic Framework, from Oracle Corporation, holds FIPS 140-2 certificate #4142 at overall level 1. The validation is historical: agencies may keep the module in existing systems but not buy it new. Below are its algorithm certificates, its validation history, and the list moves this tracker has observed, which NIST does not date.

Historical. Moved to historical list due to sunsetting. Federal agencies may reference historical validations for existing systems only, not for new procurement. Observed moving to historical on 2026-09-22. It was one of the last FIPS 140-2 certificates, all moved at the 140-2 sunset on 2026-09-21.

Module description

Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.

The Oracle Solaris Userland Cryptographic Framework module provides cryptographic functionality for any application that calls into it. The module provides encryption, decryption, hashing, secure random number generation, signature generation and verification, certificate generation and verification, message authentication functions, and key pair generation for RSA and DSA. The module can leverage the algorithm acceleration from SPARC and x86 processors when available.
