If you attempt to perform an SSLv3 handshake with openssl-1.0.2-fips, it will fail with errors not obviously related to SSLv3 not being allowed by FIPS. The first error is because we're not enabling MD5 right, but when I fixed that there were others.
Solution:
If FIPS is controlled by security policies, then openssl-1.0.2-fips should be able to do SSLv3 and we should fix the handshake. You can do an SSLv3 handshake with awslc-fips.
If not, then we should probably simply error if SSLv3 is negotiated with openssl-1.0.2-fips, rather than trying to perform the handshake and failing later. The error should make it clear that FIPS+SSLv3 is the problem.
Does this change what S2N sends over the wire? If yes, explain.
Does this change any public APIs? If yes, explain.
Which versions of TLS will this impact?
Requirements / Acceptance Criteria:
What must a solution address in order to solve the problem? How do we know the solution is complete?
RFC links: Links to relevant RFC(s)
Related Issues: Link any relevant issues
Will the Usage Guide or other documentation need to be updated?
Testing: How will this change be tested? Call out new integration tests, functional tests, or particularly interesting/important unit tests.
Will this change trigger SAW changes? Changes to the state machine, the s2n_handshake_io code that controls state transitions, the DRBG, or the corking/uncorking logic could trigger SAW failures.
Should this change be fuzz tested? Will it handle untrusted input? Create a separate issue to track the fuzzing work.

Is there anything the solution will intentionally NOT address?
