shankar0123 1c099071d1 fix(bundle-4): EST/SCEP Attack Surface Hardening — 3 audit findings closed
Closes 3 findings (1 High + 1 Medium + 1 Low) from
/Users/shankar/Desktop/cowork/comprehensive-audit-2026-04-25/.

Bundle 4 hardens the only attack surface reachable by an anonymous network
attacker in certctl: the unauthenticated EST + SCEP enrollment endpoints.

Findings closed:

  - H-004 (High): Hand-rolled ASN.1 parser had no fuzz target.
    The audit's original framing pointed at internal/pkcs7/, but recon
    confirmed that package is an ASN.1 ENCODER (BuildCertsOnlyPKCS7,
    ASN1Wrap*, ASN1EncodeLength) — not a parser. The actual hand-rolled
    PKCS#7 PARSING reachable via anonymous network is in
    internal/api/handler/scep.go::extractCSRFromPKCS7 +
    parseSignedDataForCSR. Added native go fuzz targets:
      * internal/api/handler/scep_fuzz_test.go::FuzzExtractCSRFromPKCS7
      * internal/api/handler/scep_fuzz_test.go::FuzzParseSignedDataForCSR
      * internal/pkcs7/pkcs7_fuzz_test.go::FuzzPEMToDERChain (defense-in-depth)
      * internal/pkcs7/pkcs7_fuzz_test.go::FuzzASN1EncodeLength (defense-in-depth)
    Local 15s fuzz session: 150k execs on FuzzExtractCSRFromPKCS7,
    937k on FuzzPEMToDERChain, 925k on FuzzASN1EncodeLength — zero panics.

  - M-021 (Medium): EST TLS-Unique channel binding (RFC 7030 §3.2.3).
    Added internal/api/handler/est.go::verifyESTTransport — defense-in-depth
    TLS pre-conditions (r.TLS != nil; HandshakeComplete; TLS ≥ 1.2).
    The full §3.2.3 channel binding only applies when EST mTLS is in use;
    certctl does not currently support EST mTLS, so the §3.2.3 requirement
    is moot today. RFC 9266 (TLS 1.3 tls-exporter) and EST mTLS are
    documented as deferred follow-ups in the verifyESTTransport doc comment.

  - L-005 (Low): EST/SCEP issuer-binding fail-loud at startup.
    Pre-Bundle-4 cmd/server/main.go validated that CERTCTL_EST_ISSUER_ID and
    CERTCTL_SCEP_ISSUER_ID existed in the registry but did NOT validate the
    issuer TYPE could emit a CA cert. An operator binding EST to an ACME
    issuer (whose GetCACertPEM returns explicit error) booted successfully
    and only failed at first /est/cacerts request. Post-Bundle-4: new
    preflightEnrollmentIssuer helper calls GetCACertPEM(ctx) at startup
    with a 10s timeout. Failure logs the connector error + the candidate
    issuer types and os.Exit(1).

Tests added/modified:
  - internal/api/handler/est_transport_test.go (new) — 5 verifyESTTransport
    table cases covering plaintext-rejected, incomplete-handshake-rejected,
    TLS 1.0 rejected, TLS 1.2/1.3 accepted
  - cmd/server/preflight_test.go (new) — TestPreflightEnrollmentIssuer
    covering nil-connector, error-from-issuer, empty-PEM, valid cases
  - internal/api/handler/est_handler_test.go (modified) — 7 POST sites
    now stamp r.TLS to satisfy the new transport pre-condition
  - internal/integration/negative_test.go (modified) — setupTestServer
    wraps the test handler with a fake-TLS-state injector so the EST
    handler receives r.TLS != nil; production paths still rely on the
    real TLS listener

Threat model reference: TB-11 (EST/SCEP client ↔ Server) per
cowork/comprehensive-audit-2026-04-25/threat-model.md.
Standards: RFC 7030 §3.2.3, RFC 8894 §3, RFC 5652, RFC 9266 (deferred).
