* Rename Intermediate cert references to LeafSigningCert
Within the Consul CA subsystem, the term "Intermediate"
is confusing because the meaning changes depending on
provider and datacenter (primary vs secondary). For
example, when using the Consul CA the "ActiveIntermediate"
may return the root certificate in a primary datacenter.
At a high level, we are interested in knowing which
CA is responsible for signing leaf certs, regardless of
its position in a certificate chain. This rename makes
the intent clearer.
* Move provider state check earlier
* Remove calls to GenerateLeafSigningCert
GenerateLeafSigningCert (formerly known
as GenerateIntermediate) is vestigial in
non-Vault providers, as it simply returns
the root certificate in primary
datacenters.
By folding Vault's intermediate cert logic
into `GenerateRoot` we can encapsulate
the intermediate cert handling within
`newCARoot`.
* Move GenerateLeafSigningCert out of PrimaryProvidder
Now that the Vault Provider calls
GenerateLeafSigningCert within
GenerateRoot, we can remove the method
from all other providers that never
used it in a meaningful way.
* Add test for IntermediatePEM
* Rename GenerateRoot to GenerateCAChain
"Root" was being overloaded in the Consul CA
context, as different providers and configs
resulted in a single root certificate or
a chain originating from an external trusted
CA. Since the Vault provider also generates
intermediates, it seems more accurate to
call this a CAChain.
Add support for using existing vault auto-auth configurations as the
provider configuration when using Vault's CA provider with AliCloud.
AliCloud requires 2 extra fields to enable it to use STS (it's preferred
auth setup). Our vault-plugin-auth-alicloud package contained a method
to help generate them as they require you to make an http call to
a faked endpoint proxy to get them (url and headers base64 encoded).
Adds support for the approle auth-method. Only handles using the approle
role/secret to auth and it doesn't support the agent's extra management
configuration options (wrap and delete after read) as they are not
required as part of the auth (ie. they are vault agent things).
Adds support for a jwt token in a file. Simply reads the file and sends
the read in jwt along to the vault login.
It also supports a legacy mode with the jwt string being passed
directly. In which case the path is made optional.
Does the required dance with the local HTTP endpoint to get the required
data for the jwt based auth setup in Azure. Keeps support for 'legacy'
mode where all login data is passed on via the auth methods parameters.
Refactored check for hardcoded /login fields.
remove redundant vault api retry logic
We upgraded Vault API module version to a version that has built-in
retry logic. So this code is no longer necessary.
Also add mention of re-configuring the provider in comments.
fix goroutine leak in renew testing
Test overwrote the stopWatcher() function variable for the test without
keeping and calling the original value. The original value is the
function that stops the goroutine... so it needs to be called.
Previously, we'd begin a session with the xDS concurrency limiter
regardless of whether the proxy was registered in the catalog or in
the server's local agent state.
This caused problems for users who run `consul connect envoy` directly
against a server rather than a client agent, as the server's locally
registered proxies wouldn't be included in the limiter's capacity.
Now, the `ConfigSource` is responsible for beginning the session and we
only do so for services in the catalog.
Fixes: https://github.com/hashicorp/consul/issues/15753
It turns out that by default the dev mode vault server will attempt to interact with the
filesystem to store the provided root token. If multiple vault instances are running
they'll all awkwardly share the filesystem and if timing results in one server stopping
while another one is starting then the starting one will error with:
Error initializing Dev mode: rename /home/circleci/.vault-token.tmp /home/circleci/.vault-token: no such file or directory
This change uses `-dev-no-store-token` to bypass that source of flakes. Also the
stdout/stderr from the vault process is included if the test fails.
The introduction of more `t.Parallel` use in https://github.com/hashicorp/consul/pull/15669
increased the likelihood of this failure, but any of the tests with multiple vaults in use
(or running multiple package tests in parallel that all use vault) were eventually going
to flake on this.
All of the current integration tests where Vault is the Connect CA now use non-root tokens for the test. This helps us detect privilege changes in the vault model so we can keep our guides up to date.
One larger change was that the RenewIntermediate function got refactored slightly so it could be used from a test, rather than the large duplicated function we were testing in a test which seemed error prone.
The fix outlined and merged in #15253 fixed the issue as it occurs in the primary
DC. There is a similar issue that arises when vault is used as the Connect CA in a
secondary datacenter that is fixed by this PR.
Additionally: this PR adds support to run the existing suite of vault related integration
tests against the last 4 versions of vault (1.9, 1.10, 1.11, 1.12)
Consul used to rely on implicit issuer selection when calling Vault endpoints to issue new CSRs. Vault 1.11+ changed that behavior, which caused Consul to check the wrong (previous) issuer when renewing its Intermediate CA. This patch allows Consul to explicitly set a default issuer when it detects that the response from Vault is 1.11+.

For mTLS to work between two proxies in peered clusters with different root CAs,
proxies need to configure their outbound listener to use different root certificates
for validation.
Up until peering was introduced proxies would only ever use one set of root certificates
to validate all mesh traffic, both inbound and outbound. Now an upstream proxy
may have a leaf certificate signed by a CA that's different from the dialing proxy's.
This PR makes changes to proxycfg and xds so that the upstream TLS validation
uses different root certificates depending on which cluster is being dialed.
* Support vault namespaces in connect CA
Follow on to some missed items from #12655
From an internal ticket "Support standard "Vault namespace in the
path" semantics for Connect Vault CA Provider"
Vault allows the namespace to be specified as a prefix in the path of
a PKI definition, but our usage of the Vault API includes calls that
don't support a namespaced key. In particular the sys.* family of
calls simply appends the key, instead of prefixing the namespace in
front of the path.
Unfortunately it is difficult to reliably parse a path with a
namespace; only vault knows what namespaces are present, and the '/'
separator can be inside a key name, as well as separating path
elements. This is in use in the wild; for example
'dc1/intermediate-key' is a relatively common naming schema.
Instead we add two new fields: RootPKINamespace and
IntermediatePKINamespace, which are the absolute namespace paths
'prefixed' in front of the respective PKI Paths.

* Avoid doing list of /sys/mounts
From an internal ticket "Support standard "Vault namespace in the path" semantics for Connect Vault CA Provider"
Vault allows the namespace to be specified as a prefix in the path of
a PKI definition, but this doesn't currently work for
```IntermediatePKIPath``` specifications, because we attempt to list
all of the paths to check if ours is already defined. This doesn't
really work in a namespaced world.
This changes the IntermediatePKIPath code to follow the same pattern
as the root key, where we directly get the key rather than listing.
This code is difficult to write automated tests for because it relies
on features of Vault Enterprise, which isn't currently part of our
test framework, so it was tested manually.

* Fix leaked Vault LifetimeRenewers
When the Vault CA Provider is reconfigured we do not stop the
LifetimeRenewers which can cause them to leak until the Consul processes
recycles. On Configure execute stopWatcher if it exists and is not nil
before starting a new renewal
* Add jitter before restarting the LifetimeWatcher
If we fail to login to Vault or our token is no longer valid we can
overwhelm a Vault instance with many requests very quickly by restarting
the LifetimeWatcher. Before restarting the LifetimeWatcher provide a
backoff time of 1 second or less.

Previously we were using two different criteria to decide where to run a
test. The main `go-test` job would skip Vault tests based on the
presence of the `vault` binary, but the `test-connect-ca-providers` job
would run tests based on the name.
This led to a scenario where a test may never run in CI.
To fix this problem I added a name check to the function we use to skip
the test. This should ensure that any test that requires vault is named
correctly to be run as part of the `test-connect-ca-providers` job.
At the same time I relaxed the regex we use. I verified this runs the
same tests using `go test --list Vault`. I made this change because a
bunch of tests in `agent/connect/ca` used `Vault` in the name, without
the underscores. Instead of changing a bunch of test names, this seemed
easier.
With this approach, the worst case is that we run a few extra tests in
the `test-connect-ca-providers` job, which doesn't seem like a problem.
The interface is documented as 'Sign will only return the leaf', and the other providers
only return the leaf. It seems like this was added during the initial implementation, so
is likely just something we missed. It doesn't break anything , but it does cause confusing cert chains
in the API response which could break something in the future.

This commit makes two changes to the validation.
Previously we would call this validation in GenerateRoot, which happens
both on initialization (when a follower becomes leader), and when a
configuration is updated. We only want to do this validation during
config update so the logic was moved to the UpdateConfiguration
function.
Previously we would compare the config values against the actual cert.
This caused problems when the cert was created manually in Vault (not
created by Consul). Now we compare the new config against the previous
config. Using a already created CA cert should never error now.
Adding the key bit and types to the config should only error when
the previous values were not the defaults.
This test found a bug in the secondary. We were appending the root cert
to the PEM, but that cert was already appended. This was failing
validation in Vault here:
https://github.com/hashicorp/vault/blob/sdk/v0.3.0/sdk/helper/certutil/types.go#L329
Previously this worked because self signed certs have the same
SubjectKeyID and AuthorityKeyID. So having the same self-signed cert
repeated doesn't fail that check.
However with an intermediate that is not self-signed, those values are
different, and so we fail the check. A test I added in a previous commit
should show that this continues to work with self-signed root certs as
well.

Previously we had a couple copies that reproduced the FSM operation.
These copies introduce risk that the test does not accurately match
production.
This PR removes the test versions of the FSM operation, and exports the
real production FSM operation so that it can be used in tests.
The consul provider tests did need to change because of this. Previously
we would return a hardcoded value of 2, but in production this value is
always incremented.
This makes it easier to fake, which will allow me to use the ConsulProvider as
an 'external PKI' to test a customer setup where the actual root CA is not
the root we use for the Consul CA.
Replaces a call to the state store to fetch the clusterID with the
clusterID field already available on the built-in provider.
* Support vault auth methods for the Vault connect CA provider
* Rotate the token (re-authenticate to vault using auth method) when the token can no longer be renewed
* Support Vault Namespaces explicitly in CA config
If there is a Namespace entry included in the Vault CA configuration,
set it as the Vault Namespace on the Vault client
Currently the only way to support Vault namespaces in the Consul CA
config is by doing one of the following:
1) Set the VAULT_NAMESPACE environment variable which will be picked up
by the Vault API client
2) Prefix all Vault paths with the namespace
Neither of these are super pleasant. The first requires direct access
and modification to the Consul runtime environment. It's possible and
expected, not super pleasant.
The second requires more indepth knowledge of Vault and how it uses
Namespaces and could be confusing for anyone without that context. It
also infers that it is not supported
