Rather than explain (which I would fail at), let me cite the best sources I know of.
Here's the bug I submitted to the chromium project while I beta tested the Cr-48, requesting FIPS support. The closeout comments cite excellent sources. Interesting that this was done right about the time the Heartbleed bug was probably being found as well.
