Monty Taylor eaa74543de Finish updating docs for opendev
The zuul and zuulv3 docs need to be merged, but that seemed like
too much for this. Also, the 3rd party CI doc is out of date, but
in this patch only removed sections that linked to docs or files
that don't exist anymore.

Signing System
##############
Our standard signing automation leverages an OpenPGP signing subkey,
encrypted as a Zuul secret, to create detached signatures for
release artifacts (tarballs, wheels, et cetera) and to sign and push
Git tags as part of our managed release automation. The master key
corresponding to this subkey is replaced near the start of each new
development cycle and set to expire soon after the cycle is
scheduled to conclude (with enough overlap to allow for graceful
replacement).
At a Glance
===========
:Secrets:
* `gpg_key
<https://opendev.org/openstack/project-config/src/branch/master/zuul.d/secrets.yaml>`_
:Roles:
* `add-gpgkey
<https://docs.openstack.org/infra/zuul-jobs/roles.html#role-add-gpgkey>`_
* `sign-artifacts
<https://docs.openstack.org/infra/zuul-jobs/roles.html#role-sign-artifacts>`_
Key Management Overview
=======================
The signing system is implemented as a set of Zuul v3 jobs; these
utilize the signing subkey via an encrypted Zuul secret imported
into a job's ``~/.gnupg/secring.gpg`` at runtime. It's used by jobs
to create detached signatures of release artifacts and to sign Git
tags under release management automation.
Storage
-------
While the signing subkey is installed unencrypted on some job nodes,
so that it can be used unattended by job automation, the
corresponding master key is kept symmetrically encrypted in the root
home directory of the Infra systems management bastion instead. At
the time of key creation a revocation certificate is also generated,
for which Infra root sysadmins are encouraged to retrieve and keep
local copies in case control over or access to the original master
key is lost. In the future, the master key and revocation
certificate may be distributed across our root team rather than kept
in one place (for example using Shamir's secret sharing scheme
similar to what `the Debian Project does for its archive keys
<https://ftp-master.debian.org/keys.html>`).
Rotation
--------
The master key is rotated at the start of each development cycle
(usually shortly after cycle-trailing deliverables are released),
signed by a majority of Infra root sysadmins before being put into
service, and has an expiration date set for a month after the end of
the targeted development cycle. The newly-created key gets signed by
the old, and this signature pushed to the public keyserver network.
New key fingerprints are also submitted to the openstack/releases
repository, for publication on the releases.openstack.org Web site.
Revocation
----------
Under normal circumstances, keys should be allowed to expire
gracefully. If the key is compromised but still accessible, a
revocation certificate can be generated and published to the key
network at that time. If access to the private key is lost
completely, the revocation certificate generated at key creation
time should be used as a last resort.
Key Management Process
======================
Configuration
-------------
This is the content of the ``/root/signing.gnupg/gpg.conf`` file on
our management bastion host::
# A basic gpg.conf using secure keyserver transport and some more
# verbose display options. This configuration assumes you have
# installed both the gnupg and gnupg-curl packages. Set your umask
# to 077, create a /root/signing.gnupg directory and place this
# configuration file in it.
#
# Retrieve and validate the HKPS key for the SKS keyservers this way:
#
# wget -P ~/signing.gnupg/ \
# https://sks-keyservers.net/sks-keyservers.netCA.pem{,.asc}
# gpg --homedir signing.gnupg --recv-key \
# 0x94CBAFDD30345109561835AA0B7F8B60E3EDFAE3
# gpg --homedir signing.gnupg --verify \
# ~/signing.gnupg/sks-keyservers.netCA.pem{.asc,}
#
# You'll need to list them in the accompanying dirmngr.conf file.
# Receive, send and search for keys in the SKS keyservers pool using
# HKPS (OpenPGP HTTP Keyserver Protocol via TLS/SSL).
keyserver hkps://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net
# Ignore keyserver URLs specified in retrieved/refreshed keys
# so they don't direct you to update from non-HKPS sources.
keyserver-options no-honor-keyserver-url
# Display key IDs in a more accurate 16-digit hexidecimal format
# and add 0x at the beginning for clarity.
keyid-format 0xlong
# Display the calculated validity of user IDs when listing keys or
# showing signatures.
list-options show-uid-validity
verify-options show-uid-validity
And this is the content of the ``/root/signing.gnupg/dirmngr.conf`` file on
our management bastion host::
# Set the path to the public certificate for the
# sks-keyservers.net CA used to verify connections to servers in
# the accompanying gpg.conf file.
hkp-cacert /root/signing.gnupg/sks-keyservers.netCA.pem
Generation
----------
Key generation should happen reasonably far in advance of expiration
of the old key (at least a month), so as to provide ample time for a
majority of our root sysadmins to attest to the key and provide
warning to the rest of the community of the upcoming transition. Of
course, if this is being done to replace a revoked key, this
timeline should be accelerated as much as possible to provide
continuity of service so use your best judgement on a balance of
sufficient attestation and warning (same-day turnaround is
preferred).
Make sure we start with a restrictive umask so that files and
directories we write from this point forward are only accessible by
the root user:
.. code-block:: shell-session
root@bridge:~# umask 077
Now create a master key for the coming development cycle, taking
mostly the GnuPG recommended default values. Set a validity period
sufficient to last through the release process at the conclusion of
the cycle. Use a sufficiently long, randomly-generated passphrase
string (it's fine to reuse the one stored in our passwords list for
earlier keys unless we know it to have been compromised):
.. code-block:: shell-session
root@bridge:~# gpg --homedir signing.gnupg --full-generate-key

Next, sign the new master key with the key from the previous cycle
(specified with the ``--default-key`` option). This proves that the
new key was created by a party with access to its predecessor, so
provides some added assurance of its validity:

Now send the master key to the keyserver network. The subkeys are
all submitted along with it, so do not need to be specified
separately:
.. code-block:: shell-session
root@bridge:~# gpg --homedir signing.gnupg --send-keys 0x120D3C23C6D5584D
sending key 0x120D3C23C6D5584D to hkps server hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net
The rest of this process shouldn't happen until we're ready for the
signing system to transition to our new key. In a typical,
non-emergency rotation this should not happen until release
activities for the previous cycle have concluded so that we don't
inadvertently sign their artifacts with the new key.
Create a new GnuPG keychain by exporting a copy of just the signing
subkey to a file and then importing that (and only that) in a new
GnuPG directory:
.. code-block:: shell-session
root@bridge:~# umask 077
root@bridge:~# mkdir temporary.gnupg
root@bridge:~# gpg --homedir signing.gnupg \
> --output temporary.gnupg/secret-subkeys
> --export-secret-subkeys 0xC0224DB5F541FB68\!
root@bridge:~# gpg --homedir temporary.gnupg \
> --import temporary.gnupg/secret-subkeys

gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg: imported: 1 (RSA: 1)
gpg: secret keys read: 1
gpg: secret keys imported: 1
Check that the exported version does not contain a usable primary
secret key by listing all secret keys and looking for a ``sec#`` in
front of it instead of just ``sec``:
.. code-block:: shell-session
root@bridge:~# gpg --homedir temporary.gnupg --list-secret-keys
/root/temporary.gnupg/pubring.kbx
---------------------------------
sec# rsa3072 2016-07-07 [SC] [expires: 2017-02-02]

ssb rsa3072 2016-07-07 [S]
So that our CI jobs will be able to make use of this subkey without
interactively supplying a passphrase, the old passphrase (exported
from the master key) must be reset to an empty string in the new
temporary copy. Here we override the default pinentry mode to
loopback as a workaround for other pinentry frontends refusing to
accept an empty passphrase (unfortunately the prompting and feedback
from the loopback pinentry leaves something to be desired). This is
again done using an interactive key editor session:
.. code-block:: shell-session

> --edit-key 0xC0224DB5F541FB68

Attestation
-----------
We need a majority (if not all) of our current root sysadmins to
verify and attest to the authenticity of our artifact signing key,
because it represents a system maintained by our team rather than
representing some particular individual and so anyone else attesting
to this key can really only do so transitively through us. This
should be done soon after a new key is minted (preferably the same
week) so that others in the community who wish to extend the web of
trust around the key based on our attestations (for example, release
managers or team leads) have an opportunity to do so before it's put
into production.
Start by logging into the management bastion and examining the
fingerprint of the key as it exists on disk:
.. code-block:: shell-session
me@bridge:~$ sudo gpg --homedir /root/signing.gnupg --fingerprint \
> --list-keys "OpenStack Infra (Some Cycle)"
pub rsa3072/0x120D3C23C6D5584D 2016-07-07 [expires: 2017-02-02]

sub rsa3072/0xC0224DB5F541FB68 2016-07-07
Now on your own system where your OpenPGP key resides, retrieve the
key, compare the fingerprint from above, and if they match, sign it
and push the signature back to the keyserver network:

gpg: sending key 0x120D3C23C6D5584D to hkps server hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net
Also, please retrieve a copy of the
``/root/signing.gnupg/some.revoke.asc`` fallback revocation
certificate (``some`` to be replaced with the lower-cased release
name) from the management bastion and keep it stashed somewhere
secure, for emergency use in the (hopefully very unlikely) event
that our OpenPGP master private key is completely lost to us (for
example, if we lose the file containing its decryption passphrase
and all backups thereof).
