certificate: reduce nested sdbusplus::object inheritence The CertIfaces type use to end up being: object<object<Certificate>, Replace, Delete> The nested object is unnecessary and can lead to incorrect behavior for signal emittance. The upstream sdbusplus library attempted to fix this automatically by flattening the resulting diamond inheritance, but some of the code here attempted to use `object<Certificate>::function` calls, which by the automatic flattening was not in the CertIface's inheritance structure. Tested: # Launched certificate manager. ./builddir/phosphor-certificiate-manager --endpoint=ldap --path=/tmp/certificate_test --unit=bmcweb.service --type=authority # Copied certificate into /tmp/certificate_test cp /etc/ssl/certs/Go_Daddy_Class_2_CA.pem /tmp/certificate_test # Checked busctl that Certificate object exists. busctl --user tree xyz.openbmc_project.Certs.Manager.Authority.Ldap └─/xyz └─/xyz/openbmc_project └─/xyz/openbmc_project/certs └─/xyz/openbmc_project/certs/authority └─/xyz/openbmc_project/certs/authority/ldap └─/xyz/openbmc_project/certs/authority/ldap/1 busctl --user introspect xyz.openbmc_project.Certs.Manager.Authority.Ldap /xyz/openbmc_project/certs/authority/ldap/1 xyz.openbmc_project.Certs.Certificate NAME TYPE SIGNATURE RESULT/VALUE > .CertificateString property s "-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE--> .Issuer property s "C=US,O=The Go Daddy Grou> .KeyUsage property as 0 > .Subject property s "C=US,O=The Go Daddy Grou> .ValidNotAfter property t 2035170380 > .ValidNotBefore property t 1088485580 Signed-off-by: Patrick Williams <patrick@stwcx.xyz> Change-Id: If11679eb26708ce146c8451acb2169782e89ea54
Certificate management allows to replace the existing certificate and private key file with another (possibly CA signed) Certificate key file. Certificate management allows the user to install both the server and client certificates.
To build this package, do the following steps: 1. ./bootstrap.sh 2. ./configure ${CONFIGURE_FLAGS} 3. make To clean the repository run `./bootstrap.sh clean`.
Multiple instances of phosphor-certificate-manager
are usually run on the bmc to support management of different types of certificates.
Usage: ./phosphor-certificate-manager [options] Options: --help Print this menu --type certificate type Valid types: client,server,authority --endpoint d-bus endpoint --path certificate file path --unit=<name> Optional systemd unit need to reload
Purpose: Server https certificate
./phosphor-certificate-manager --type=server --endpoint=https \ --path=/etc/ssl/certs/https/server.pem --unit=bmcweb.service
Purpose: Client certificate validation
./phosphor-certificate-manager --type=authority --endpoint=ldap \ --path=/etc/ssl/certs/authority --unit=bmcweb.service
Purpose: LDAP client certificate validation
./phosphor-certificate-manager --type=client --endpoint=ldap \ --path=/etc/nslcd/certs/cert.pem
phosphor-certificate-manager
is an implementation of the D-Bus interface defined in this document.
D-Bus service name is constructed by "xyz.openbmc_project.Certs.Manager.{Type}.{Endpoint}" and D-Bus object path is constructed by "/xyz/openbmc_project/certs/{type}/{endpoint}".
Take https certificate management as an example.
./phosphor-certificate-manager --type=server --endpoint=https \ --path=/etc/ssl/certs/https/server.pem --unit=bmcweb.service
D-Bus service name is "xyz.openbmc_project.Certs.Manager.Server.Https" and D-Bus object path is "/xyz/openbmc_project/certs/server/https".
OpenBMC bmcweb exposes various REST APIs for certificate management on the BMC, which leverages functionalities of phosphor-certificate-manager
via D-Bus.
