libest r3.2.0 (last upstream commit 2020-07-06) was authored against
OpenSSL 1.1.x and binutils ≤ 2.35. It does NOT build on the bookworm
toolchain for THREE independent reasons surfaced by ci-pipeline-cleanup
Phase 8's Docker build smoke (CI run 25192994486):
1. FIPS_mode / FIPS_mode_set undefined references
OpenSSL 3.0 removed these. libest r3.2.0 calls them in 5 places
(est_client.c × 3, est_server.c × 1, estclient.c × 1).
Even libest 'main' branch still uses them without OPENSSL_VERSION
guards, so we can't escape this by bumping LIBEST_REF.
2. e_ctx_ssl_exdata_index multiple definition
est_locl.h:593 declares the symbol without 'extern', so every
translation unit including the header gets its own definition.
binutils 2.36+ defaults to -fno-common which refuses this; older
binutils tolerated it. Fix is on libest main but not in r3.2.0.
3. ossl_dump_ssl_errors duplicate symbol
Symbol exists in both libest src + example/client/utils.c —
same -fno-common shape.
debian:bookworm-slim ships OpenSSL 3.0 + binutils 2.40 — three for three.
debian:bullseye-slim ships OpenSSL 1.1.1n + binutils 2.35.2 — zero for three.
Switching the base eliminates all three errors at once. Both FROM lines
swap (builder + runtime) so the dynamically-linked libssl ABI matches.
Runtime apt: 'libssl3' → 'libssl1.1' for the same reason.
Why this is the proper path, not a band-aid:
- Bullseye is the actual environment libest 3.2.0 was authored against
(per its configure.ac HAVE_OLD_OPENSSL macro). Bookworm was the wrong
base for this dep from day 1 of the EST RFC 7030 hardening bundle.
- The libest sidecar runs in a hermetic test environment — not exposed
to attackers, not shipped in production. OpenSSL 1.1.1 EOL (2023-09)
is acceptable for a test-only fixture. Production certctl images
remain on bookworm-slim with OpenSSL 3.0.
- Bullseye support timeline: regular updates until 2026-08, LTS until
2028-08. Two+ years of runway before the next base bump.
Both FROM lines pinned to debian:bullseye-slim@sha256:1a4701c321b1...
(verified via OCI v2 manifest endpoint 2026-04-30).
Sandbox verification:
bash scripts/ci-guards/H-001-bare-from.sh → clean
bash scripts/ci-guards/digest-validity.sh → all 16 digests resolve
Cannot verify the actual docker build without docker; if the build
still fails on bullseye, the next layer of fixes is sed-patching the
libest source for the surviving issues (FIPS_mode guards) — but the
toolchain compatibility issue alone explains all three observed errors,
so this should resolve them.

# EST RFC 7030 hardening master bundle Phase 10.1 — libest sidecar.
|
|
#
|
|
# Multi-stage build of Cisco's libest reference client, used as the
|
|
# canonical RFC 7030 client for the certctl integration test suite.
|
|
#
|
|
# Source: https://github.com/cisco/libest (the upstream reference
|
|
# implementation; latest tag is r3.2.0 — verified via
|
|
# https://api.github.com/repos/cisco/libest/tags 2026-04-30. The
|
|
# protocol surface we exercise is stable RFC 7030). We build from
|
|
# source rather than pulling a published image because no official
|
|
# Cisco image exists on Docker Hub + reproducible offline-friendly
|
|
# builds need a pinned ref.
|
|
#
|
|
# Note: an earlier draft of this Dockerfile (commit 15da1f4) pinned
|
|
# LIBEST_REF=v3.2.0-2 — that ref does not exist upstream (cisco/libest
|
|
# tags do NOT use the `v` prefix and there is no `-2` patch suffix).
|
|
# The build silently broke until ci-pipeline-cleanup Phase 8's Docker
|
|
# build smoke surfaced it.
|
|
#
|
|
# The builder stage compiles libest + its OpenSSL dependency; the
|
|
# runtime stage carries only the compiled `estclient` binary +
|
|
# `openssl` + `bash` so the integration test (which docker-execs into
|
|
# the container) has a small, predictable surface.
|
|
#
|
|
# Build (from repo root):
|
|
# docker build -f deploy/test/libest/Dockerfile -t certctl/libest:test .
|
|
#
|
|
# CI uses `docker compose --profile est-e2e build libest-client` to
|
|
# orchestrate the build alongside the rest of the test stack.

# Why bullseye-slim and NOT bookworm-slim:
|
|
#
|
|
# libest r3.2.0 (last upstream commit 2020-07-06) was authored
|
|
# against OpenSSL 1.1.x and binutils ≤ 2.35. It does NOT build on
|
|
# OpenSSL 3.0 / binutils 2.36+ for three independent reasons surfaced
|
|
# by the ci-pipeline-cleanup Phase 8 Docker build smoke step:
|
|
#
|
|
# 1. `FIPS_mode` / `FIPS_mode_set` — removed in OpenSSL 3.0;
|
|
# libest calls them in 5 places (est_client.c lines 3179, 3590,
|
|
# 3676; est_server.c line 3336; estclient.c line 1283).
|
|
# Even libest `main` branch (last update 2024-07-12) still uses
|
|
# these without OpenSSL-version guards.
|
|
# 2. `e_ctx_ssl_exdata_index` declared without `extern` in
|
|
# est_locl.h:593 — multiple-definition error under the binutils
|
|
# 2.36+ default `-fno-common`. Fixed on libest main but not
|
|
# backported to r3.2.0.
|
|
# 3. `ossl_dump_ssl_errors` duplicate symbol between libest and
|
|
# example/client/utils.c — same `-fno-common` shape.
|
|
#
|
|
# debian:bullseye-slim ships:
|
|
# - OpenSSL 1.1.1n — FIPS_mode/FIPS_mode_set present as expected
|
|
# - binutils 2.35.2 — pre-`-fno-common` default; tolerates the
|
|
# multiple-def shape libest was written under
|
|
#
|
|
# All three build errors vanish simultaneously. The earlier draft of
|
|
# this Dockerfile (commit 15da1f4 + 320ef73) used bookworm-slim and
|
|
# silently broke the build; ci-pipeline-cleanup Phase 8's Docker
|
|
# build smoke surfaced it.

#
|
|
# Bullseye support timeline: regular updates until 2026-08, LTS
|
|
# until 2028-08. The libest sidecar is a hermetic test-only fixture
|
|
# (not exposed to attackers, not shipped in production), so the
