Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
An updated certmonger package is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
The certmonger service monitors certificates, warning of their impending
expiration, and optionally attempting to re-enroll with supported CAs
(Certificate Authorities).
This update fixes the following bug:
- When submitting a signing request to a Red Hat IPA (Identity, Policy, Audit)
CA, certmonger is expected to authenticate using the client's host credentials,
and to delegate the client's credentials to the server. Recent updates to
libraries on which certmonger depends changed delegation of client credentials
from a mandatory operation to an optional operation that is no longer enabled by
default, which effectively broke certmonger's support for IPA CAs.
This update gives certmonger the ability to explicitly request credential
delegation when used with newer versions of these libraries, which introduce an
API that allows certmonger to explicitly request that credential delegation be
performed. (BZ#729803)
All certmonger users should upgrade to this updated package, which fixes this
bug.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
