Critical alerts can no longer be silently dropped by a transient
notifier failure. Failed notification attempts now ride an exponential
backoff retry loop, with a 5-attempt budget before promotion to the
dead-letter queue for operator intervention.
Schema (migration 000016, idempotent):
- retry_count INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 0
- next_retry_at TIMESTAMPTZ
- last_error TEXT
- idx_notification_events_retry_sweep partial index
(next_retry_at) WHERE status='failed' AND next_retry_at IS NOT NULL
Dead rows clear next_retry_at so the index stops matching them.
Service contract:
- NotificationService.RetryFailedNotifications drives 2^n-minute
exponential backoff capped at 1h (notifRetryBackoffCap) with
5-attempt budget (notifRetryMaxAttempts).
- Exhaustion (RetryCount >= notifRetryMaxAttempts-1) promotes to
status='dead' via MarkAsDead.
- Non-terminal failures record via RecordFailedAttempt.
- Success path promotes to 'sent' without touching retry_count
(audit preserves "delivered on attempt N").
- Missing-notifier branch defensively promotes to 'sent' to avoid
wedging a row on a deleted channel.
- RequeueNotification operator escape hatch atomically resets
retry_count -> 0, next_retry_at -> NULL, last_error -> NULL,
status -> pending via notifRepo.Requeue.
Scheduler:
- New always-on notificationRetryLoop wired into the base loop set at
CERTCTL_NOTIFICATION_RETRY_INTERVAL (default 2m).
- sync/atomic.Bool idempotency guard.
- sync.WaitGroup shutdown drain via WaitForCompletion.
StatsService:
- SetNotifRepo setter pattern preserves 9 pre-existing
NewStatsService call sites (main.go + stats_test.go + 8 digest
tests) without touching the constructor signature.
- DashboardSummary.NotificationsDead populated via
notifRepo.CountByStatus(ctx, "dead") — nil-safe when unwired
(reports zero on systems without a notification repository).
- CountByStatus error is non-fatal (dashboard summary is
best-effort for this field).
- Prometheus certctl_notification_dead_total counter emitted from
the same snapshot.
Handler:
- New POST /api/v1/notifications/{id}/requeue endpoint.
- dead status surfaces to MCP + CLI.
Frontend:
- NotificationsPage gains two-tab toolbar ("All" / "Dead letter")
with queryKey: ['notifications', activeTab] so switching tabs
doesn't serve stale data until the 30s refetch.
- Dead rows surface "Retry {n}/5" + truncated last_error with
full-text title tooltip.
- Requeue mutation wrapped as
mutationFn: (id: string) => requeueNotification(id)
to prevent react-query v5's positional context argument from
leaking into the API client — pinned against future refactors
by strict-match toHaveBeenCalledWith('notif-dead-001') in
NotificationsPage.test.tsx:181.
Closes I-005.
Operator decision answered as Option A: JobService.RetryFailedJobs is
now wired into the scheduler as an always-on 10th loop. Prior to this
commit the method was implemented, unit-tested, and exported but had
zero runtime callers — any job that transitioned to status=Failed stayed
Failed forever regardless of how many attempts it had remaining.
Scheduler — 10th loop:
internal/scheduler/scheduler.go grows a jobRetryLoop alongside the
existing nine loops (renewal, jobs, health, notifications, short-lived,
network scan, digest, health check, cloud discovery). The loop follows
the established run-immediately-then-tick pattern (same shape as
jobProcessorLoop), gated by a sync/atomic.Bool idempotency guard and
joined into the scheduler's sync.WaitGroup so WaitForCompletion drains
it on graceful shutdown. Each tick runs under a 2-minute context
timeout mirroring jobProcessorLoop's opCtx budget. The runJobRetry
helper invokes jobService.RetryFailedJobs(ctx, 3) — the advisory
maxRetries cap is belt-and-suspenders; per-job eligibility is still
enforced inside the service via Attempts < MaxAttempts.
The JobServicer scheduler-interface gains RetryFailedJobs so the
scheduler's dependency surface stays explicit and mockable.
Service — audit trail per retry:
internal/service/job.go:RetryFailedJobs now emits an audit event for
every Failed→Pending transition. Following the house convention used
by all scheduler-emitted events, actor='system' and actorType=
domain.ActorTypeSystem; action='job_retry'; details capture
old_status, new_status, attempts, max_attempts. JobService carries an
optional *AuditService (SetAuditService) that nil-guards to preserve
test-wiring ergonomics — existing tests that construct JobService
without an audit service continue to pass unchanged.
Config — env var with sane default:
internal/config/config.go:SchedulerConfig grows RetryInterval, wired
to CERTCTL_SCHEDULER_RETRY_INTERVAL with a 5-minute default. Validate
rejects intervals below 1 second (matches other scheduler interval
validators).
Server wiring:
cmd/server/main.go calls jobService.SetAuditService(auditService)
after JobService construction and sched.SetJobRetryInterval(
cfg.Scheduler.RetryInterval) alongside the other SetXxxInterval calls.
Regression coverage:
internal/service/job_test.go (3 new)
- TestJobService_RetryFailedJobs_EligibleJobTransitionsAndAudits
- TestJobService_RetryFailedJobs_SkipsJobsAtMaxAttempts
- TestJobService_RetryFailedJobs_NoAuditServiceOK
internal/scheduler/scheduler_test.go (3 new)
- TestScheduler_JobRetryLoop_CallsService
- TestScheduler_JobRetryLoop_IdempotencyGuard
- TestScheduler_JobRetryLoop_WaitForCompletion
The service tests assert status transitions, attempt-cap short-
circuiting, and audit event shape (actor='system', action='job_retry',
details keys). The scheduler tests assert the loop invokes the service,
the atomic.Bool guard skips overlapping ticks with the expected
'still running, skipping tick' log, and WaitForCompletion drains the
in-flight tick on Stop.
Residual follow-up (not in scope for this commit):
internal/service/renewal.go:RetryFailedJobs is a parallel dead-code
duplicate of the same logic on RenewalService — untested and has no
runtime caller. The audit finding called this out as 'implemented
twice'. Removing it is a separate cleanup and does not block the
Option-A wiring this commit delivers.

Closes the remaining P1 gaps from coverage-gap-audit.md (M-001/M-002/M-003/M-006)
on top of the C-001/C-002 ownership + agent-FK contract fixes landed in
a53a4b8. The work lands as a single commit spanning server, docs, tests,
and the React client.
M-002 — Named API keys with per-key actor propagation
* Migration 000014 adds the 'api_keys' table (id, name, hash,
principal, role, created_at, last_used_at, disabled_at) so every
credential carries an identifiable principal instead of the
opaque 'anonymous'/'api-key' sentinel.
* Auth middleware now rotates through configured keys, performs
constant-time hash comparison, stamps 'last_used_at', and emits
an actor struct via contextWithActor(). The audit middleware,
bulk-revocation handler, approval handlers, and MCP tool layer
now read the principal off the context and persist it on every
audit_events row.
* Regression coverage:
- internal/api/middleware/audit_test.go — actor propagation,
principal redaction for disabled keys, anonymous fallback for
unauthenticated endpoints.
- internal/api/handler/bulk_revocation_handler_test.go,
job_handler_test.go — principal-on-audit assertions.
M-003 — Authorization gates (Phase B)
* Approval handler rejects self-approval / self-rejection with 403
when the actor principal equals the job's requested_by field.
* Bulk revocation is gated behind the 'admin' role; operators and
viewers receive 403.
* Regression coverage:
- internal/service/job_test.go — TestApproveJob_NotSelf,
TestRejectJob_NotSelf.
- internal/api/handler/bulk_revocation_handler_test.go —
TestBulkRevoke_RequiresAdmin, TestBulkRevoke_AdminSucceeds.
M-006 — RFC-compliant CRL/OCSP on the unauthenticated .well-known mux
* Per RFC 8615, relying parties cannot reasonably be asked to
authenticate against the issuing certctl instance to retrieve
revocation material. CRL and OCSP move off the authenticated
'/api/v1/crl*' and '/api/v1/ocsp/*' paths onto:
GET /.well-known/pki/crl/{issuer_id}
Content-Type: application/pkix-crl (RFC 5280 §5)
GET /.well-known/pki/ocsp/{issuer_id}/{serial}
Content-Type: application/ocsp-response (RFC 6960)
* Non-standard JSON CRL shape is removed; only DER is served.
* Short-lived certificate exemption (profile TTL < 1h → skip
CRL/OCSP) is preserved; the response simply omits the serial.
* Routes are registered on the unauthenticated 'finalHandler' mux
in cmd/server/main.go alongside EST ('/.well-known/est/*') and
SCEP ('/scep'). Legacy authenticated paths return 404.
* Regression coverage:
- internal/api/handler/certificate_handler_test.go — content
type, DER parseability, 404 for unknown issuer.
- internal/api/handler/adversarial_path_test.go — unauthenticated
access asserted for CRL, OCSP, EST, SCEP.
- internal/api/router/router_test.go — route-table assertion
that '.well-known/pki/*', '.well-known/est/*', and '/scep' are
mounted on the unauthenticated branch.
M-001 — Auto-closed by M-002
EST and SCEP were already registered on the unauthenticated
'finalHandler' mux; the router comment at
internal/api/router/router.go:247 now matches reality. The
adversarial-path tests above lock the behavior in.
Verification (all gates green):
* go vet ./... — clean
* go build ./... — ok
* go test -short ./... (55+ packages) — all pass
* web/ : npm test (225 Vitest tests) — all pass
* web/ : npx tsc --noEmit — clean
* grep sweep for '/api/v1/(crl|ocsp)' — 13 surviving hits,
all intentional M-006 tombstone/relocation comments.
Documentation:
* coverage-gap-audit.md — status flips M-001/M-002/M-003/M-006 →
Fixed, with per-finding resolution paragraphs citing regression
test IDs. (Audit file lives outside this repo; see cowork root.)
* CLAUDE.md Project Status line updated with the auth-unification
closure note.
* docs/features.md, docs/architecture.md, docs/quickstart.md,
docs/concepts.md, docs/connectors.md, docs/test-env.md,
docs/testing-guide.md, docs/compliance-*.md, docs/demo-advanced.md
— refreshed for the new '.well-known/pki/*' namespace and named
API keys.
* api/openapi.yaml — documents the new unauthenticated endpoints
and removes the legacy '/api/v1/crl*' + '/api/v1/ocsp/*' paths.
.gitignore: adds '/.gocache/' and '/.gomodcache/' for the session-
scoped Go caches so they never enter the tree.
The GlobalSign Atlas HVCA connector previously used InsecureSkipVerify:true
on its mTLS TLS config, disabling server certificate validation and
defeating the purpose of the client-side mTLS handshake. This was a
CWE-295 Improper Certificate Validation vulnerability silently degrading
trust on every production call to GlobalSign's signing API.
Remediation (per H-5 audit finding, Lens 4.4):
- Remove InsecureSkipVerify from all three http.Client construction sites
(ValidateConfig, getHTTPClient, and legacy initialisation path).
- Introduce buildServerTLSConfig() helper that constructs tls.Config with
MinVersion: tls.VersionTLS12 (addresses adjacent L-1 recommendation).
- New optional config field `server_ca_path` (env:
CERTCTL_GLOBALSIGN_SERVER_CA_PATH). When unset the connector trusts the
system root CA bundle (correct default for GlobalSign's publicly-trusted
HVCA endpoints). When set the bundle is loaded via x509.NewCertPool() +
AppendCertsFromPEM, and only those roots are trusted (supports private
HVCA deployments and defence-in-depth root pinning).
- Error wrapping chain: "failed to read server CA bundle at %s" and
"no valid PEM certificates found in server CA bundle at %s" surface
config problems at ValidateConfig time instead of silently failing at
request time.
Docs, config, service env-seed, and GUI issuer type definition updated to
expose the new field. Tests: 9 dead `InsecureSkipVerify: true` client
TLSClientConfig blocks (no-ops against httptest.NewServer plain-HTTP)
replaced with bare http.Client; new TestGlobalSign_ServerTLSConfig covers
pinned-CA trust, untrusted-server rejection, missing-file and invalid-PEM
error paths.
Verification:
- go build ./... clean
- go vet ./... clean
- go test -race ./internal/connector/issuer/globalsign/... ./internal/config/... ./internal/service/... ok
- go test ./... (excluding testcontainers-gated repo layer) ok
- golangci-lint run ./... 0 issues

- Per-layer coverage: service 68.7% (≥55), handler 83.6% (≥60), domain 82.0% (≥40), middleware 63.8% (≥30)
- globalsign package coverage: 75.9%
- Invariant sweep: 0 InsecureSkipVerify references remain in globalsign
package (only a test-file comment documenting the removal).
Problem (CWE-306 Missing Authentication for Critical Function):
internal/service/scep.go PKCSReq skipped the shared-secret check when
s.challengePassword was empty. An unconfigured-but-enabled SCEP server
accepted any unauthenticated client reaching /scep and issued a
certificate against the configured issuer for any CSR with a valid
signature. No audit trail distinguished authenticated from
unauthenticated enrollments. This matches the two-layer fail-closed
pattern already used for C-2 (f549a7a): reject at startup AND reject
at the service boundary.
Fix (two layers, defense-in-depth):
Layer 1 — startup pre-flight in cmd/server/main.go:
preflightSCEPChallengePassword returns a non-nil error when SCEP is
enabled and CERTCTL_SCEP_CHALLENGE_PASSWORD is empty. main logs and
os.Exit(1)s before the SCEP service is constructed. Disabled SCEP is
unaffected. The helper is unit-testable in isolation.
Layer 2 — service-layer rejection in internal/service/scep.go:
PKCSReq refuses enrollment when s.challengePassword == "" even though
main already blocks this state — protects future call sites (tests,
library reuse, a REST-over-HTTPS wrapper). When a secret is
configured, the comparison now uses crypto/subtle.ConstantTimeCompare
so response time does not leak the configured secret through a
short-circuiting byte compare.
Files:
- cmd/server/main.go: preflightSCEPChallengePassword helper; call site
inside the `if cfg.SCEP.Enabled` block before issuer lookup; fatal
slog error references CWE-306 and names the env var so operators can
diagnose the startup failure without reading code.
- cmd/server/main_test.go: TestPreflightSCEPChallengePassword with five
table-driven subtests (disabled empty, disabled set, enabled empty
rejected, enabled set, single-char boundary). The enabled-empty case
asserts the error string contains both CERTCTL_SCEP_CHALLENGE_PASSWORD
and CWE-306 so the log message remains actionable.
- internal/config/config.go: SCEPConfig.ChallengePassword godoc now
states the field is REQUIRED when SCEP.Enabled and cross-references
preflightSCEPChallengePassword.
- internal/service/scep.go: imports crypto/subtle; PKCSReq rewritten
with the two-layer check; comment block cites H-2 / CWE-306 and the
constant-time rationale.
- internal/service/scep_test.go: existing tests that relied on the
vulnerable empty-password path now configure a secret on both sides.
TestSCEPService_PKCSReq_ChallengePassword_NotRequired is replaced by
TestSCEPService_PKCSReq_ChallengePassword_EmptyServerConfigRejected
which iterates ["", "any-value", "guess"] against an unconfigured
server and asserts "not configured" in the error. A new
TestSCEPService_PKCSReq_ChallengePassword_ConstantTimeLengthIndependence
exercises same-prefix-longer and wrong-case inputs to guard against a
regression from ConstantTimeCompare to a short-circuiting byte compare.
- internal/service/m11c_crypto_enforcement_test.go: four tests
(RejectsWeakKey, AcceptsStrongKey, MaxTTL_ForwardedToIssuer,
NoProfileRepo_PassesThrough) constructed NewSCEPService with an empty
challenge password and exercised PKCSReq through the now-rejected
vulnerable path. All four now configure "secret123" on both sides with
an inline H-2 comment; the crypto/MaxTTL/profile behavior they assert
is unchanged.
Wire-format / behavioral invariants preserved:
- RFC 8894 SCEP handler is untouched (internal/api/handler/scep.go and
internal/pkcs7/*): GetCACaps/GetCACert responses, PKIOperation request
parsing, and the PKCS#7 certs-only response format are byte-identical.
- RFC 7030 EST handler is untouched
(internal/api/handler/est.go + internal/pkcs7/*).
- Revocation idempotency composite key (H-1, migration 000012) untouched.
- AES-256-GCM config encryption (C-2) untouched.
- CRL DER bytes and OCSP response bytes unchanged.
Verification:
- go build ./... silent success
- go vet ./... silent success
- go test -race -count=1 ./internal/service/ ./cmd/server/
./internal/api/handler/ ./internal/integration/ all OK
- Coverage with comfortable headroom over CI gates:
service 67.8% (gate 55%)
handler 79.0% (gate 60%)
domain 92.7% (gate 40%)
middleware 80.0% (gate 30%)
cmd/server 1.6% (preflightSCEPChallengePassword: 100%)
internal/service/scep.go PKCSReq statement coverage: 100%.
- rg sweeps: no `s.challengePassword != ""` remains;
no `challengePassword != s.challengePassword` remains.
Operational note: operators with SCEP enabled but no challenge password
set will see a fatal startup error and a log line citing
CERTCTL_SCEP_CHALLENGE_PASSWORD and CWE-306 after upgrading. This is the
intended fail-closed behavior. Fix by either setting the env var to a
non-empty shared secret or setting CERTCTL_SCEP_ENABLED=false.
Audit report: certctl-audit-report.md (revision 5) logs this under
H-2 Resolution Log.
Add three new issuer connectors completing commercial and open-source CA
coverage. Entrust uses mTLS client certificate auth with sync/async
issuance. GlobalSign Atlas uses mTLS + API key/secret dual auth with
serial-based tracking. EJBCA supports dual auth (mTLS or OAuth2) for
self-hosted Keyfactor CAs.
Each connector implements the full issuer.Connector interface (9 methods),
includes httptest-based unit tests (~14 each), and follows established
patterns (injectable HTTP clients, RFC 5280 revocation reason mapping,
CRL/OCSP delegated to CA).
Also includes: issuer factory cases, env var seeding, config structs,
domain types, seed data (3 rows, all disabled), OpenAPI enum updates,
frontend issuer catalog entries with config fields, and full docs
(connectors.md, architecture.md, features.md, README).

Three related ACME ecosystem changes shipped as a single milestone:
1. ACME Certificate Profile Selection: Custom JWS-signed newOrder POST with
`profile` field (e.g., `tlsserver`, `shortlived` for 6-day certs) bypassing
acme.Client.AuthorizeOrder() since golang.org/x/crypto lacks profile support.
ES256 JWS signing with kid mode, nonce management, directory discovery.
Empty profile delegates to standard library path (zero behavior change).
Configurable via CERTCTL_ACME_PROFILE env var. GUI: profile dropdown on
ACME issuer config.
2. ARI RFC 9702 → 9773 Renumber: All 25+ references updated across Go source,
docs, README, and examples. Zero remaining occurrences of RFC 9702.
3. 45-Day / Short-Lived Certificate Positioning: 5 domain tests validating
renewal thresholds against SC-081v3 validity reduction timeline (200→100→47
days) and Let's Encrypt 45-day/6-day profiles. ARI (RFC 9773) is the
expected renewal path for 6-day shortlived certs.
New tests: 13 profile + 5 domain threshold + 1 frontend = 19 new tests.

key derivation with 100k iterations)
- Dynamic IssuerRegistry with sync.RWMutex replacing static map
- Connector factory pattern (issuerfactory.NewFromConfig) replacing
140 lines of static wiring in main.go
- Migration 000009: encrypted_config, last_tested_at, test_status,
source columns on issuers table
- Env var seeding on first boot with ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING
- Registry Rebuild() for atomic map swap after CRUD operations
- Issuer type validation against domain constants on Create
- Audit trail for test connection results
- Conditional seeding for step-ca/OpenSSL (only when env vars set)
- GUI: source badge, connection test status on issuer detail page

Fixes 12 production bugs preventing the full issuance→deployment flow
from working with ACME (Pebble/Let's Encrypt) and step-ca issuers:
ACME connector (acme.go):
- Save orderURI before WaitOrder overwrites it (Go crypto/acme bug)
- Add CreateOrderCert fallback via WaitOrder+FetchCert
- Remove defer-reset in ValidateConfig that caused nil pointer panic
- Add Insecure TLS option for self-signed ACME servers (Pebble)
step-ca connector (stepca.go, jwe.go):
- Real JWE provisioner key loading + decryption (was using ephemeral keys)
- Fix JWT audience (/1.0/sign), sha claim (key fingerprint), kid header
- Custom root CA trust via RootCertPath config
- Remove hardcoded 90-day validity default (let step-ca decide)
NGINX target connector (nginx.go):
- Use sh -c for validate/reload commands (shell interpretation)
- Use filepath.Dir instead of fragile string slicing
- Add private key file writing (agent-mode keys were never deployed)
- Make chain_path write conditional
Server/service layer:
- TriggerRenewalWithActor now creates actual Job records (was no-op)
- createDeploymentJobs falls back to DB query when cert.TargetIDs empty
- ProcessPendingJobs skips agent-routed deployment jobs
- Agent cert pickup path parsing: len(parts)<4 → len(parts)<3
- Health/ready/auth-info endpoints bypass auth middleware
- Write timeout 15s→120s for ACME issuance
- Cert fingerprint computed on CSR submission
Integration test environment (deploy/test/):
- 10-phase test script covering Local CA, ACME, step-ca, revocation,
discovery, renewal, and API spot checks
- Docker Compose with 7 containers (server, agent, postgres, nginx,
pebble, challtestsrv, step-ca) on isolated network
- TLS verification checks SAN (not just Subject CN) for modern CA compat

M25: After deploying a certificate, the agent probes the live TLS
endpoint and compares SHA-256 fingerprints to verify the correct cert
is being served. Best-effort — failures don't block deployments.
New endpoints: POST /jobs/{id}/verify, GET /jobs/{id}/verification.
Migration 000008 adds verification columns to jobs table.
M26: Traefik target connector (file provider, auto-reload) and Caddy
target connector (dual-mode: admin API hot-reload or file-based).
Both wired into agent dispatch.
Also: restructured README to highlight supported integrations (issuers,
targets, notifiers) earlier, moved API/CLI/MCP sections lower. Updated
all docs (features, connectors, architecture, testing guide, why-certctl)
and fixed integration tests for 18-param RegisterHandlers signature.

CERTCTL_CA_KEY_PATH) to operate as subordinate CA under enterprise root
(e.g., ADCS). Supports RSA, ECDSA, PKCS#8 keys. Validates IsCA and
KeyUsageCertSign. Falls back to self-signed when paths unset.
DNS-01 challenges: Pluggable DNSSolver interface with script-based hook
implementation. User-provided scripts create/cleanup _acme-challenge TXT
records for any DNS provider. Configurable propagation wait. Enables
wildcard certs and non-HTTP-accessible hosts.
step-ca connector: Smallstep private CA via native /sign API with JWK
provisioner auth. Issuance, renewal, revocation. Registered as iss-stepca.
23 new tests across 3 files. CI test path widened to ./internal/connector/issuer/...

Private keys never leave agent infrastructure. Agents generate ECDSA P-256
key pairs locally, store them with 0600 permissions, and submit only the CSR
(public key) to the control plane. New AwaitingCSR job state pauses
renewal/issuance jobs until the agent submits its CSR. Server-side keygen
retained behind CERTCTL_KEYGEN_MODE=server for demo/development.
Key changes:
- Dual keygen mode via CERTCTL_KEYGEN_MODE (agent default, server for demo)
- AwaitingCSR job state with CommonName/SANs in work response
- Agent ECDSA P-256 keygen, local key storage, CSR-only submission
- CompleteAgentCSRRenewal server-side flow for agent-submitted CSRs
- DeploymentRequest.KeyPEM for agent-provided keys during deployment
- Dockerfile.agent creates /var/lib/certctl/keys with correct ownership
