From 52248be717e3584d1364b3e0ceb97ea129583683 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: shankar0123 Date: Mon, 20 Apr 2026 03:31:05 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] =?UTF-8?q?v2.0.47:=20HTTPS=20Everywhere=20=E2=80=94=20TLS?= =?UTF-8?q?-only=20control=20plane,=20agents/CLI/MCP?= MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Breaking change release. Plaintext HTTP listener removed. The certctl control plane now terminates TLS 1.3 on :8443 via http.Server.ListenAndServeTLS. No CERTCTL_TLS_ENABLED=false escape hatch. No dual-listener mode. One-step cutover per docs/upgrade-to-tls.md. Server - cmd/server/tls.go: certHolder with SIGHUP hot-reload + atomic cert swap, buildServerTLSConfig (TLS 1.3 min, GetCertificate callback), preflightServerTLS validation - cmd/server/main.go: ListenAndServeTLS in place of ListenAndServe, watchSIGHUP wiring, cert/key path config threading - tls_test.go: 418-line regression coverage of reload, preflight, callback behavior, SAN validation Config - CERTCTL_TLS_CERT_PATH / CERTCTL_TLS_KEY_PATH (required) - Plaintext rejection: agents/CLI/MCP pre-flight-fail on http:// URLs with a pointer to docs/upgrade-to-tls.md Agents, CLI, MCP - All three pre-flight-reject http:// URLs with fail-loud diagnostic - CERTCTL_SERVER_CA_BUNDLE_PATH for private-CA trust - CERTCTL_SERVER_TLS_INSECURE_SKIP_VERIFY for dev-only bypass (loud warning on startup) - install-agent.sh emits both vars as commented template lines docker-compose - certctl-tls-init sidecar generates SAN-valid self-signed cert into deploy/test/certs/ on first boot - All demo-stack curls pin against ca.crt with --cacert Helm chart - Three TLS provisioning modes, exactly one required: - server.tls.existingSecret (operator-supplied) - server.tls.certManager.enabled (cert-manager integration) - server.tls.selfSigned.enabled (eval only — not for production) - server-certificate.yaml template for cert-manager mode - helm install without a TLS source fails at template render with a pointer to docs/tls.md CI - .github/workflows/ci.yml Helm Chart Validation step renders the chart in both existingSecret and cert-manager modes, plus an inverse guard-regression test that asserts helm template MUST refuse to render when no TLS source is configured. Previously the single `helm template` invocation hit the certctl.tls.required fail-loud guard and exit-1'd CI. Four invocations now: lint (existingSecret), template (existingSecret), template (cert-manager), template (no args — must fail).

Dates use ISO 8601. Versions follow [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/). + +## [2.2.0] — 2026-04-19 + +### HTTPS Everywhere — The Irony + +> certctl manages other teams' certificates. Until v2.2, it didn't terminate TLS on its own control plane. We treated the server as an internal service sitting behind whatever TLS-terminating infrastructure the operator already owned — reverse proxies, Kubernetes Ingress controllers, service mesh sidecars. Working through an EST coverage-gap audit surfaced this as a credibility problem we wanted to fix head-on: a cert-lifecycle product should ship with HTTPS by default. This release flips that. Self-signed bootstrap for docker-compose demos, operator-supplied Secret for Helm (with optional cert-manager integration), and a one-step cutover with no backward-compat bridge. Out-of-date agents will fail at the TLS handshake layer on upgrade; the upgrade guide walks operators through the roll. + +### Breaking Changes + +- **HTTPS-only control plane. The plaintext HTTP listener is gone.** There is no `CERTCTL_TLS_ENABLED=false` escape hatch and no `:8080` fallback. Operators who were running certctl behind their own TLS terminator must either (a) continue doing so and let the downstream TLS terminator talk to certctl's HTTPS listener, or (b) bring their own cert/key and terminate on certctl directly. Either path requires config changes — see `docs/upgrade-to-tls.md` for a one-step cutover. +- **Agents reject `CERTCTL_SERVER_URL=http://...` at startup.** This is a pre-flight config validation failure with a fail-loud diagnostic pointing at `docs/upgrade-to-tls.md`. Not a TCP-refused, not a TLS-handshake-error — the agent will not even attempt the network call. Every agent deployment must be reconfigured before upgrading the server. +- **CLI and MCP clients require `https://` URLs.** Same pre-flight rejection of plaintext schemes. +- **TLS 1.2 is not supported. TLS 1.3 only.** The server's `tls.Config.MinVersion` is pinned to `tls.VersionTLS13`. Any client still negotiating TLS 1.2 will fail at the handshake. Modern curl, Go stdlib, browsers, and Kubernetes tooling all default to 1.3-capable; legacy clients may need an upgrade. +- **Helm chart requires a TLS source.** `helm install` without one of `server.tls.existingSecret`, `server.tls.certManager.enabled`, or (for eval only) `server.tls.selfSigned.enabled` fails at template time with a diagnostic pointing at `docs/tls.md`. There is no default-to-plaintext path. + +### Added + +- **Self-signed bootstrap for Docker Compose demos.** A `certctl-tls-init` init container runs before the server on first boot, generates a SAN-valid self-signed cert into `deploy/test/certs/`, and exits. The server mounts the resulting cert/key. Every curl in the demo stack pins against `./deploy/test/certs/ca.crt` with `--cacert`. +- **Helm chart TLS provisioning — three modes.** Operator-supplied Secret (`server.tls.existingSecret`), cert-manager integration (`server.tls.certManager.enabled` with issuer selection), or self-signed (`server.tls.selfSigned.enabled` — eval only, not supported for production). Chart templates enforce exactly one is active. +- **Hot-reload of TLS cert/key on `SIGHUP`.** Overwrite the cert/key on disk, send `SIGHUP` to the server PID, watch the `slog.Info("tls.reload", ...)` log line, and new TLS connections use the new cert. Failure during reload is logged and does not crash the server; the previous cert remains in use. +- **Agent CA-bundle env vars.** `CERTCTL_SERVER_CA_BUNDLE_PATH` points at a PEM file the agent's HTTP client will trust. `CERTCTL_SERVER_TLS_INSECURE_SKIP_VERIFY` disables verification (development only — the agent logs a loud warning at startup). `install-agent.sh` writes both as commented template lines into the generated `agent.env`. +- **Integration test suite runs over HTTPS.** `go test -tags=integration ./deploy/test/...` stands up the full Compose stack, extracts the self-signed CA bundle, and exercises every certctl API over `https://localhost:8443`. All 34 subtests green. +- **`docs/tls.md`** — cert provisioning patterns: bring-your-own Secret, cert-manager, self-signed bootstrap, SAN requirements, rotation workflows, SIGHUP reload semantics, troubleshooting. +- **`docs/upgrade-to-tls.md`** — one-step cutover guide for existing v2.1 operators. Walks through the agent fleet roll, Helm upgrade sequencing, downgrade-is-not-supported warnings, and cert-provisioning decision tree. + +### Changed + +- `cmd/server/main.go` now calls `http.Server.ListenAndServeTLS(certFile, keyFile)`. The plaintext `ListenAndServe` code path is deleted — `grep -rn "ListenAndServe[^T]" cmd/ internal/` returns zero hits. +- All documentation curls (`docs/testing-guide.md`, `docs/quickstart.md`, `deploy/helm/INSTALLATION.md`, `deploy/helm/DEPLOYMENT_GUIDE.md`, `deploy/ENVIRONMENTS.md`, `docs/openapi.md`, migration guides, example READMEs) use `https://localhost:8443` and `--cacert` against the demo stack's bundle. +- OpenAPI spec (`api/openapi.yaml`) `servers` blocks default to `https://localhost:8443`. + +### Security + +- TLS 1.3 pinned via `tls.Config.MinVersion = tls.VersionTLS13`. +- Plaintext HTTP listener removed entirely — no port 8080, no `Upgrade-Insecure-Requests`, no HSTS-required redirect dance. There is only one port: 8443, TLS 1.3. +- `grep -rn "http://" cmd/ internal/` returns zero hits outside test fixtures and the agent-side URL-scheme rejection error message. + +### Upgrade Notes + +Read `docs/upgrade-to-tls.md` before upgrading. The short version: + +1. Pick a TLS source — bring-your-own cert, cert-manager, or self-signed bootstrap. +2. Upgrade the server with TLS configured. First boot over HTTPS. +3. Roll the agent fleet: set `CERTCTL_SERVER_URL=https://...` and, if using a private CA, `CERTCTL_SERVER_CA_BUNDLE_PATH`. Old agents will fail loud at startup — expected. +4. Roll CLI/MCP clients the same way. + +There is no backward-compat bridge. There is no dual-listener mode.

The server refuses to start without a cert+key pair, the agent/CLI/MCP clients reject `http://` URLs at startup, and the Helm chart refuses to render without either an operator-supplied Secret or a cert-manager Certificate CR. + +This doc covers four cert provisioning patterns, SIGHUP-based cert rotation, and the client-side CA-trust configuration agents and the CLI need to talk to the server.

TLS 1.3 cipher suites are non-negotiable (all three mandatory suites — AES-128-GCM-SHA256, AES-256-GCM-SHA384, CHACHA20-POLY1305-SHA256 — are always offered), so there is no `CipherSuites` knob to misconfigure. No TLS 1.2 fallback is available. + +Two env vars are required on the server: + +- `CERTCTL_SERVER_TLS_CERT_PATH` — filesystem path to the PEM-encoded server certificate +- `CERTCTL_SERVER_TLS_KEY_PATH` — filesystem path to the PEM-encoded private key that signs the cert + +Both paths are read during a fail-loud preflight in `cmd/server/main.go` (see `preflightServerTLS` in `cmd/server/tls.go`). If either is unset, unreadable, or the cert+key pair does not round-trip through `tls.LoadX509KeyPair`, the process refuses to start and emits a diagnostic pointing back at this doc. The rationale lives in §3 of the HTTPS-Everywhere milestone: a cert-lifecycle product should not silently bind plaintext. + +## Pattern 1 — Self-signed bootstrap for docker-compose demos + +This is the default for the `deploy/docker-compose.yml` stack. It exists so `docker compose up -d --build` just works on a laptop without the operator standing up a CA first. It is not appropriate for any non-demo environment. + +An init container named `certctl-tls-init` runs once before the server starts. It uses the `alpine/openssl` image and generates an ed25519 self-signed cert: + +``` +openssl req -x509 -newkey ed25519 -nodes \ + -keyout /etc/certctl/tls/server.key \ + -out /etc/certctl/tls/server.crt \ + -days 3650 \ + -subj "/CN=certctl-server" \ + -addext "subjectAltName=DNS:certctl-server,DNS:localhost,IP:127.0.0.1,IP:::1" +``` + +The cert, its matching key, and a copy of the cert published as `ca.crt` land in a named volume (`certs`) mounted at `/etc/certctl/tls/` in the server container (read-only) and the agent container (read-only). The bootstrap is idempotent — if `server.crt`, `server.key`, and `ca.crt` are already present on the volume, the init container logs `TLS cert already present at …` and exits cleanly. + +Single-cert design. CN is `certctl-server` to match the Docker-network hostname. The SAN list is `[certctl-server, localhost, 127.0.0.1, ::1]`, which covers both container-internal agent→server traffic and operator browser/curl access to `https://localhost:8443`. There is no separate intermediate/root chain — the server cert and the CA bundle are the same PEM. This is the whole point of a demo bootstrap. + +To force regeneration (rotate the demo cert), tear the volume down: `docker compose down -v`. The next `up` re-runs the init container. + +The server's Docker healthcheck and the agent both verify against `/etc/certctl/tls/ca.crt`; no `-k` / `InsecureSkipVerify` anywhere in the default stack. + +## Pattern 2 — Operator-supplied `kubernetes.io/tls` Secret (Helm) + +This is the default path for Helm installs. The operator provisions a Secret of type `kubernetes.io/tls` holding `tls.crt` + `tls.key` (and optionally `ca.crt` for mounting a CA bundle to clients in the same cluster) from whatever source they already trust — their internal CA, a manually-issued cert, step-ca, AWS ACM PCA exported to PEM, or the output of the self-signed bootstrap pattern above copied into a cluster Secret. + +``` +kubectl create secret tls certctl-server-tls \ + --cert=server.crt \ + --key=server.key \ + --namespace certctl +``` + +Then: + +``` +helm install certctl deploy/helm/certctl \ + --namespace certctl \ + --set server.tls.existingSecret=certctl-server-tls +``` + +The Secret is mounted read-only at `/etc/certctl/tls/` in the server pod. The `CERTCTL_SERVER_TLS_CERT_PATH` and `CERTCTL_SERVER_TLS_KEY_PATH` env vars are wired to `tls.crt` and `tls.key` keys inside that mount. If `ca.crt` is absent from the Secret, clients that need a CA bundle should use `tls.crt` as the bundle (self-signed case) or mount a separate ConfigMap with the root chain (operator-CA case). + +If the operator sets neither `server.tls.existingSecret` nor `server.tls.certManager.enabled=true`, `helm template` / `helm install` fails at render-time with a diagnostic pointing at this doc. The guard is implemented in `deploy/helm/certctl/templates/_helpers.tpl` under the `certctl.tls.required` helper. This is deliberate: the HTTPS-only server would crash-loop on an empty path, so we fail earlier at Helm-render time. + +## Pattern 3 — cert-manager `Certificate` CR (Helm, opt-in) + +For clusters that already run cert-manager, the chart can provision a `Certificate` CR that writes into the Secret the server pod reads from. This is opt-in — the default is `server.tls.certManager.enabled: false` — because not every cluster has cert-manager installed, and we refuse to ship a chart that silently depends on an external controller. + +``` +helm install certctl deploy/helm/certctl \ + --namespace certctl \ + --set server.tls.certManager.enabled=true \ + --set server.tls.certManager.issuerRef.name=my-cluster-issuer \ + --set server.tls.certManager.issuerRef.kind=ClusterIssuer +``` + +The rendered `Certificate` (see `deploy/helm/certctl/templates/server-certificate.yaml`) writes `tls.crt` + `tls.key` + `ca.crt` into the Secret named by `server.tls.certManager.secretName` (defaults to `-tls`). The server pod reads from that same Secret; the agent DaemonSet mounts the same Secret as its CA bundle source. + +cert-manager handles rotation. certctl-server handles in-place reload — see the SIGHUP section below. + +The chart enforces that if `server.tls.certManager.enabled=true`, `server.tls.certManager.issuerRef.name` must also be set. An empty `issuerRef.name` makes `helm template` fail with a diagnostic naming the missing flag. + +## Pattern 4 — Manually-issued from an internal CA + +For operators running neither Helm nor docker-compose (bare-metal / custom orchestration), the server just needs two files on disk pointed at by `CERTCTL_SERVER_TLS_CERT_PATH` and `CERTCTL_SERVER_TLS_KEY_PATH`. Issue the cert from your internal CA with: + +- CN matching the hostname your agents and operators use to dial the server (e.g., `certctl.prod.example.com`) +- SAN list covering every hostname and IP that appears in `CERTCTL_SERVER_URL` values across your agent fleet +- Key usage: digital signature + key encipherment +- Extended key usage: server auth + +Store the key with mode `0600` and owner matching the UID the server runs as (`1000` in our shipped Dockerfile). The server process reads both files during `preflightServerTLS` at startup and again on every SIGHUP. + +The full CA chain that signed the server cert should be distributed to agents, CLI operators, and MCP clients as their `CERTCTL_SERVER_CA_BUNDLE_PATH` — see the client section below. + +## SIGHUP cert rotation + +The server wraps its cert+key pair in a `*certHolder` (see `cmd/server/tls.go`) that guards the loaded `*tls.Certificate` under a `sync.Mutex`. The `*tls.Config` wires `GetCertificate` to the holder, so every new inbound TLS handshake reads whatever cert the holder currently has. + +Send `SIGHUP` to the server PID and the holder re-reads both files from disk. On success, the next new connection uses the new cert; in-flight requests finish on the previous cert. A log line goes out: + +``` +TLS cert reloaded via SIGHUP cert_path=/etc/certctl/tls/server.crt key_path=/etc/certctl/tls/server.key +``` + +On failure (missing file, malformed PEM, key does not sign cert), the old cert is retained and an error logs: + +``` +TLS cert reload failed; continuing with previous cert cert_path=… key_path=… error=… +``` + +This is deliberately fail-safe on reload (as opposed to fail-loud on startup). A cert-manager renewal race, a partially-copied file, a typo in a rotation script — none of those should crash a running server and drop every agent connection. The operator sees the error in logs, fixes the underlying issue, and sends another `SIGHUP`. + +Pair with cert-manager, certbot `--post-hook`, or any rotation tool that can fire a signal. For docker-compose, `docker compose kill -s HUP certctl-server` works. For Kubernetes, reload is typically handled by cert-manager updating the Secret and the mounted file changing on the next kubelet sync — no explicit SIGHUP needed if the volume mount is `subPath`-free. + +Startup is a different story. If the cert is missing or malformed at process start, the server exits non-zero rather than binding plaintext or attempting a retry loop. That's the HTTPS-only contract. + +## Client-side TLS: agents, CLI, MCP + +Everything that talks to the server enforces HTTPS on the URL. + +### Agent + +`CERTCTL_SERVER_URL` must be `https://…`. `http://`, bare hostnames, `ftp://`, `ws://`, and empty strings are rejected at startup by `validateHTTPSScheme` in `cmd/agent/main.go` with a diagnostic pointing at `upgrade-to-tls.md`. There is no warning-and-proceed path. + +Two additional env vars control how the agent verifies the server cert: + +- `CERTCTL_SERVER_CA_BUNDLE_PATH` — filesystem path to a PEM-encoded CA bundle that signed the server cert. Loaded into `*tls.Config.RootCAs` on the agent's HTTP client. If unset, the agent falls back to the OS system trust store. +- `CERTCTL_SERVER_TLS_INSECURE_SKIP_VERIFY` — defaults to `false`. Setting it to `true` skips verification entirely. **Dev-only escape hatch.** The agent logs a prominent warning at startup (`TLS certificate verification is disabled … never enable this in production`). Use this only when dialing a demo server whose cert you haven't bothered to mount into the agent container. + +Equivalent CLI flags: `--ca-bundle ` and `--insecure-skip-verify`. + +If both the CA bundle and `InsecureSkipVerify=true` are set, `InsecureSkipVerify` wins — it's the whole point of the flag. Don't do this in production. + +### CLI (`certctl-cli`) + +Same contract as the agent: + +- `CERTCTL_SERVER_URL` defaults to `https://` scheme; `http://` rejected at startup +- `--ca-bundle ` flag or `CERTCTL_SERVER_CA_BUNDLE_PATH` env var — CA bundle for server cert verification +- `--insecure` flag or `CERTCTL_SERVER_TLS_INSECURE_SKIP_VERIFY=true` — skip verification (dev only) +- Error diagnostic on empty URL explicitly mentions both `--server` and `CERTCTL_SERVER_URL` so operators see the right knob to turn + +The CLI shares the URL-scheme validation with the agent; the test pins in `cmd/cli/main_test.go:TestValidateHTTPSScheme` cover the full rejection matrix. + +### MCP server (`certctl-mcp-server`) + +Same three controls as CLI, env-var-driven only (no flags — MCP runs as a stdio subprocess and inherits env from the launching LLM client): + +- `CERTCTL_SERVER_URL` must start with `https://` +- `CERTCTL_SERVER_CA_BUNDLE_PATH` optional CA bundle +- `CERTCTL_SERVER_TLS_INSECURE_SKIP_VERIFY` optional skip + +Claude Desktop / other MCP client configs should set all three in the tool's env block. + +## Troubleshooting: fail-loud preflight errors + +Every preflight failure message ends with `(see docs/tls.md)` so this doc is the first hit when an operator searches. Common failures: + +**`CERTCTL_SERVER_TLS_CERT_PATH is empty: HTTPS-only control plane refuses to start`** +Set the env var. For docker-compose this is already set to `/etc/certctl/tls/server.crt` in the shipped compose file — if you're seeing this, check the `certctl-tls-init` service logs to see why the init container didn't populate the volume. For Helm, check that `server.tls.existingSecret` or `server.tls.certManager.enabled=true` is set. + +**`TLS cert file "…" unreadable: …`** +The cert path is set but `os.Stat` failed. Check filesystem permissions — the server runs as UID 1000 in our shipped Dockerfile; the cert needs to be readable by that UID. Typos in the path also land here. + +**`TLS cert/key pair invalid (cert="…" key="…"): …`** +Both files exist but `tls.LoadX509KeyPair` refused them. Typical causes: the private key does not sign the certificate, the key is encrypted with a passphrase (not supported — remove the passphrase with `openssl pkey` before mounting), or one of the two is DER-encoded instead of PEM. Re-issue the pair from the same CA call and re-mount. + +**Client side: `tls: failed to verify certificate: x509: certificate signed by unknown authority`** +The client did not trust the CA that signed the server cert. Either mount the CA bundle via `CERTCTL_SERVER_CA_BUNDLE_PATH`, add the CA to the system trust store on the client host, or (dev only) set `CERTCTL_SERVER_TLS_INSECURE_SKIP_VERIFY=true`. + +**Client side: `tls: first record does not look like a TLS handshake`** +The client is speaking plaintext HTTP to an HTTPS server (or vice-versa).

If you omit both `server.tls.existingSecret` and `server.tls.certManager.enabled`, the chart fails at render time with a diagnostic pointing at `docs/tls.md`. That guard exists precisely so you catch the missing config at `helm upgrade` time, not at pod-crash-loop time. + +3. **Verify the HTTPS endpoint from inside the cluster.** Port-forward and curl with the CA bundle: + + ``` + kubectl port-forward -n certctl svc/certctl-server 8443:8443 & + kubectl get secret -n certctl certctl-server-tls -o jsonpath='{.data.ca\.crt}' | base64 -d > /tmp/certctl-ca.crt + curl --cacert /tmp/certctl-ca.crt https://localhost:8443/health + ``` + + Expect `{"status":"ok"}`. If the Secret does not contain a `ca.crt` key (operator-supplied Secrets often don't), use `tls.crt` as the bundle instead — for a self-signed cert the two files are identical, and for a cert chained to an internal CA you should separately distribute the root CA bundle via ConfigMap or mounted file. + +4. **Update every agent manifest.** Agents outside this Helm release (or in a separately-managed DaemonSet) need their env block updated: + + ``` + - name: CERTCTL_SERVER_URL + value: "https://certctl-server.certctl.svc.cluster.local:8443" + - name: CERTCTL_SERVER_CA_BUNDLE_PATH + value: "/etc/certctl/tls/ca.crt" + ``` + + Mount the server's Secret (or a separate CA-bundle Secret / ConfigMap) at `/etc/certctl/tls/` as a read-only volume.

They stay offline until their env block is updated and the service restarts. There is no graceful 400-with-migration-URL response because there is no HTTP listener to serve one from — the entire plaintext call path is removed by design. + +If you see an unexpected agent stay `Offline` past the cutover window, SSH to the host and check the agent log. On a systemd host: + +``` +journalctl -u certctl-agent -n 100 +``` + +Look for `URL scheme "http" is not supported: HTTPS-only control plane refuses to start (see docs/upgrade-to-tls.md)`.
