[eric51893]

What package is missing from Amazon Linux 2023? Please describe and include package name. mod_auth_openidc mod_auth_openidc is an OpenID Certified™ authentication and authorization module for the Apache 2.x HTTP server that implements the OpenID Connect Relying Party functionality.

Is this an update to existing package or new package request? New request

Is this package available in Amazon Linux 2? If it is available via external sources such as EPEL, please specify. Yes it is available in Amazon Linux 2 in the amzn2-core repository

Any additional information you'd like to include. (use-cases, etc) There is a dependency apr-util which is then dependent on apr-util-bdb in AL 2. apr-util-bdb is also not in the AL 2023 yum repositories currently, although apr-util is there already.

apr-util is the apache portable runtime (APR) utilities and apr-util-bdb is Berkley database driver for the same.

This should be updated to very latest version to have all security fixes from https://github.com/OpenIDC/mod_auth_openidc

Note that BDB is deprecated in AL2023 (see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/linux/al2023/ug/deprecated-al2023.html#deprecated-bdb ) and is likely to be removed in a future release of Amazon Linux.

So the BDB part won't come, but we can keep this open as a request for mod_auth_openidc
