      Currently, we are skipping FIPS smoke testing in Docker with OpenSSL 3. Something about the specific combination of these three features is making tests time out.

      A quick initial investigation pointed out that this may be related to how Node.js polls entropy sources through OpenSSL internally. It is possible that this is fixed in newer Node.js versions and/or requires making changes to upstream Node.js and/or only requires adjustments to how OpenSSL is configured in our Docker containers.

      It is unlikely that this problem is specific to mongosh.
