The KRA backend has been simplified since most of the tasks have
been moved somewhere else. The transport certificate will be
installed on the client, and it is not needed by KRA backend. The
KRA agent's PEM certificate is now generated during installation
due to permission issue. The kra_host() for now is removed since
the current ldap_enable() cannot register the KRA service, so it
is using the kra_host environment variable.
The KRA installer has been modified to use Dogtag's CLI to create
KRA agent and setup the client authentication.
The proxy settings have been updated to include KRA's URLs.
Some constants have been renamed for clarity. The DOGTAG_AGENT_P12
has been renamed to DOGTAG_ADMIN_P12 since file actually contains
the Dogtag admin's certificate and private key and it can be used
to access both CA and KRA. The DOGTAG_AGENT_PEM has been renamed
to KRA_AGENT_PEM since it can only be used for KRA.
The Dogtag dependency has been updated to 10.2.1-0.1.

This patch adds the capability of installing a Dogtag KRA
to an IPA instance. With this patch, a KRA is NOT configured
by default when ipa-server-install is run. Rather, the command
ipa-kra-install must be executed on an instance on which a Dogtag
CA has already been configured.
The KRA shares the same tomcat instance and DS instance as the
Dogtag CA. Moreover, the same admin user/agent (and agent cert) can
be used for both subsystems. Certmonger is also confgured to
monitor the new subsystem certificates.
To create a clone KRA, simply execute ipa-kra-install <replica_file>
on a replica on which a Dogtag CA has already been replicated.
ipa-kra-install will use the security domain to detect whether the
system being installed is a replica, and will error out if a needed
replica file is not provided.
The install scripts have been refactored somewhat to minimize
duplication of code. A new base class dogtagintance.py has
been introduced containing code that is common to KRA and CA
installs. This will become very useful when we add more PKI
subsystems.
The KRA will install its database as a subtree of o=ipaca,
specifically o=ipakra,o=ipaca. This means that replication
agreements created to replicate CA data will also replicate KRA
data. No new replication agreements are required.
Added dogtag plugin for KRA. This is an initial commit providing
the basic vault functionality needed for vault. This plugin will
likely be modified as we create the code to call some of these
functions.

Upgrading from d9 -> d10 does not set up the RESTful interface
in dogtag, they just never coded it. Rather than trying to backport
things they have decided to not support upgrades.
We need to catch this and report a more reasonable error. They are
returning a 501 (HTTP method unimplemented) in this case.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3549
Use a new RESTful API provided by dogtag 10+. Construct an XML document
representing the search request. The output is limited to whatever dogtag
sends us, there is no way to request additional attributes other than
to read each certificate individually.
dogtag uses a boolean for each search term to indicate that it is used.
Presense of the search item is not enough, both need to be set.
The search operation is unauthenticated
Design page: http://freeipa.org/page/V3/Cert_findhttps://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2528
If we get an error from dogtag we always did raise a
CertificateOperationError exception with a message describing the
problem. Unfortuanately that error message did not go into the log,
just sent back to the caller. The fix is to format the error message
and send the same message to both the log and use it to initialize the
CertificateOperationError exception. This is done in the utility
method raise_certificate_operation_error().

* Convert every string specifying a DN into a DN object
* Every place a dn was manipulated in some fashion it was replaced by
the use of DN operators
* Add new DNParam parameter type for parameters which are DN's
* DN objects are used 100% of the time throughout the entire data
pipeline whenever something is logically a dn.
* Many classes now enforce DN usage for their attributes which are
dn's. This is implmented via ipautil.dn_attribute_property(). The
only permitted types for a class attribute specified to be a DN are
either None or a DN object.
* Require that every place a dn is used it must be a DN object.
This translates into lot of::
assert isinstance(dn, DN)
sprinkled through out the code. Maintaining these asserts is
valuable to preserve DN type enforcement. The asserts can be
disabled in production.
The goal of 100% DN usage 100% of the time has been realized, these
asserts are meant to preserve that.
The asserts also proved valuable in detecting functions which did
not obey their function signatures, such as the baseldap pre and
post callbacks.
* Moved ipalib.dn to ipapython.dn because DN class is shared with all
components, not just the server which uses ipalib.
* All API's now accept DN's natively, no need to convert to str (or
unicode).
* Removed ipalib.encoder and encode/decode decorators. Type conversion
is now explicitly performed in each IPASimpleLDAPObject method which
emulates a ldap.SimpleLDAPObject method.
* Entity & Entry classes now utilize DN's
* Removed __getattr__ in Entity & Entity clases. There were two
problems with it. It presented synthetic Python object attributes
based on the current LDAP data it contained. There is no way to
validate synthetic attributes using code checkers, you can't search
the code to find LDAP attribute accesses (because synthetic
attriutes look like Python attributes instead of LDAP data) and
error handling is circumscribed. Secondly __getattr__ was hiding
Python internal methods which broke class semantics.
* Replace use of methods inherited from ldap.SimpleLDAPObject via
IPAdmin class with IPAdmin methods. Directly using inherited methods
was causing us to bypass IPA logic. Mostly this meant replacing the
use of search_s() with getEntry() or getList(). Similarly direct
access of the LDAP data in classes using IPAdmin were replaced with
calls to getValue() or getValues().
* Objects returned by ldap2.find_entries() are now compatible with
either the python-ldap access methodology or the Entity/Entry access
methodology.
* All ldap operations now funnel through the common
IPASimpleLDAPObject giving us a single location where we interface
to python-ldap and perform conversions.
* The above 4 modifications means we've greatly reduced the
proliferation of multiple inconsistent ways to perform LDAP
operations. We are well on the way to having a single API in IPA for
doing LDAP (a long range goal).
* All certificate subject bases are now DN's
* DN objects were enhanced thusly:
- find, rfind, index, rindex, replace and insert methods were added
- AVA, RDN and DN classes were refactored in immutable and mutable
variants, the mutable variants are EditableAVA, EditableRDN and
EditableDN. By default we use the immutable variants preserving
important semantics. To edit a DN cast it to an EditableDN and
cast it back to DN when done editing. These issues are fully
described in other documentation.
- first_key_match was removed
- DN equalty comparison permits comparison to a basestring
* Fixed ldapupdate to work with DN's. This work included:
- Enhance test_updates.py to do more checking after applying
update. Add test for update_from_dict(). Convert code to use
unittest classes.
- Consolidated duplicate code.
- Moved code which should have been in the class into the class.
- Fix the handling of the 'deleteentry' update action. It's no longer
necessary to supply fake attributes to make it work. Detect case
where subsequent update applies a change to entry previously marked
for deletetion. General clean-up and simplification of the
'deleteentry' logic.
- Rewrote a couple of functions to be clearer and more Pythonic.
- Added documentation on the data structure being used.
- Simplfy the use of update_from_dict()
* Removed all usage of get_schema() which was being called prior to
accessing the .schema attribute of an object. If a class is using
internal lazy loading as an optimization it's not right to require
users of the interface to be aware of internal
optimization's. schema is now a property and when the schema
property is accessed it calls a private internal method to perform
the lazy loading.
* Added SchemaCache class to cache the schema's from individual
servers. This was done because of the observation we talk to
different LDAP servers, each of which may have it's own
schema. Previously we globally cached the schema from the first
server we connected to and returned that schema in all contexts. The
cache includes controls to invalidate it thus forcing a schema
refresh.
* Schema caching is now senstive to the run time context. During
install and upgrade the schema can change leading to errors due to
out-of-date cached schema. The schema cache is refreshed in these
contexts.
* We are aware of the LDAP syntax of all LDAP attributes. Every
attribute returned from an LDAP operation is passed through a
central table look-up based on it's LDAP syntax. The table key is
the LDAP syntax it's value is a Python callable that returns a
Python object matching the LDAP syntax. There are a handful of LDAP
attributes whose syntax is historically incorrect
(e.g. DistguishedNames that are defined as DirectoryStrings). The
table driven conversion mechanism is augmented with a table of
hard coded exceptions.
Currently only the following conversions occur via the table:
- dn's are converted to DN objects
- binary objects are converted to Python str objects (IPA
convention).
- everything else is converted to unicode using UTF-8 decoding (IPA
convention).
However, now that the table driven conversion mechanism is in place
it would be trivial to do things such as converting attributes
which have LDAP integer syntax into a Python integer, etc.
* Expected values in the unit tests which are a DN no longer need to
use lambda expressions to promote the returned value to a DN for
equality comparison. The return value is automatically promoted to
a DN. The lambda expressions have been removed making the code much
simpler and easier to read.
* Add class level logging to a number of classes which did not support
logging, less need for use of root_logger.
* Remove ipaserver/conn.py, it was unused.
* Consolidated duplicate code wherever it was found.
* Fixed many places that used string concatenation to form a new
string rather than string formatting operators. This is necessary
because string formatting converts it's arguments to a string prior
to building the result string. You can't concatenate a string and a
non-string.
* Simplify logic in rename_managed plugin. Use DN operators to edit
dn's.
* The live version of ipa-ldap-updater did not generate a log file.
The offline version did, now both do.

Dogtag is going to be proxied through httpd. To make this work, it has to support renegotiation of the SSL
connection. This patch enables renegotiate in the nss configuration file during during apache configuration,
as well as modifies libnss to set the appropriate optins on the ssl connection in order to renegotiate.
The IPA install uses the internal ports instead of proxying through
httpd since httpd is not set up yet.
IPA needs to Request the certificate through a port that uses authentication. On the Dogtag side, they provide an additional mapping for this: /ca/eeca/ca as opposed tp /ca/ee/ca just for this purpose.

When the RA is about to submit a signing request to a CA, check
if the ca_host is actually a CA. If it isn't, and it isn't the
local host, check if the local host is a CA. If that doesn't
work, try to select a CA host at random. If there aren't any,
just give up and pretend the ca_host is a CA so that we can fail
to connect to it, as we would have before.
Ticket #1252.
The changes include:
* Change license blobs in source files to mention GPLv3+ not GPLv2 only
* Add GPLv3+ license text
* Package COPYING not LICENSE as the license blobs (even the old ones)
mention COPYING specifically, it is also more common, I think

We set a new port to be used with dogtag but IPA doesn't utilize it.
This also changes the way we determine which security database to use.
Rather than using whether api.env.home is set use api.env.in_tree.
A number of doc strings were not localized, wrap them in _().
Some messages were not localized, wrap them in _()
Fix a couple of failing tests:
The method name in RPC should not be unicode.
The doc attribute must use the .msg attribute for comparison.
Also clean up imports of _() The import should come from
ipalib or ipalib.text, not ugettext from request.
This moves code that does HTTP and HTTPS requests into a common library
that can be used by both the installer and the dogtag plugin.
These functions are not generic HTTP/S clients, they are designed
specifically to talk to dogtag, so use accordingly.
NSS is going to disallow all SSL renegotiation by default. Because of
this we need to always use the agent port of the dogtag server which
always requires SSL client authentication. The end user port will
prompt for a certificate if required but will attempt to re-do the
handshake to make this happen which will fail with newer versions of NSS.
This profile enables subject validation and ensures that the subject
that the CA issues is uniform. The client can only request a specific
CN, the rest of the subject is fixed.
This is the first step of allowing the subject to be set at
installation time.
Also fix 2 more issues related to the return results migration.
External CA signing is a 2-step process. You first have to run the IPA
installer which will generate a CSR. You pass this CSR to your external
CA and get back a cert. You then pass this cert and the CA cert and
re-run the installer. The CSR is always written to /root/ipa.csr.
A run would look like:
# ipa-server-install --ca --external-ca -p password -a password -r EXAMPLE.COM -u dirsrv -n example.com --hostname=ipa.example.com -U
[ sign cert request ]
# ipa-server-install --ca --external-ca -p password -a password --external_cert_file=/tmp/rob.crt --external_ca_file=/tmp/cacert.crt -U -p password -a password -r EXAMPLE.COM -u dirsrv -n example.com --hostname=ipa.example.com
This also abstracts out the RA backend plugin so the self-signed CA we
create can be used in a running server. This means that the cert plugin
can request certs (and nothing else). This should let us do online replica
creation.
To handle the self-signed CA the simple ca_serialno file now contains
additional data so we don't have overlapping serial numbers in replicas.
This isn't used yet. Currently the cert plugin will not work on self-signed
replicas.
One very important change for self-signed CAs is that the CA is no longer
held in the DS database. It is now in the Apache database.
Lots of general fixes were also made in ipaserver.install.certs including:
- better handling when multiple CA certificates are in a single file
- A temporary directory for request certs is not always created when the
class is instantiated (you have to call setup_cert_request())
