Paul Belanger f87608d151 Add CA service to puppetmaster.o.o for zuul 
We want to start encrypting our gearman traffic for zuulv3, as such
we'll need to bring online a CA service. The idea here, is we create a
new CA for each interconnecting service we want SSL certs for.

As an example /etc/zuul-ca will be used to generate SSL certs for our
gearman service.

Certificate Authority

Overview

Today we have a single CA service setup on puppetmaster.o.o:

/etc/zuul-ca

This is used for generating SSL certificates needed by our CI systems. As we need to create more SSL certificates for new services, we'll create additional directories on puppetmaster.openstack.org, having multiple CA services.

Generating a CA certificate

Below are the steps for create a new certificicate authority. Today we do this on puppetmaster.openstack.org. Some important things to note, our pass phrase for our cakey.pem file is stored in our GPG password.txt file. Additionally, by default our cacert.pem file will only be valid for 3 years.

NOTE In the example below we'll be using the /etc/zuul-ca folder on puppetmaster.openstack.org.

root@puppetmaster:~# cd /etc/zuul-ca
root@puppetmaster:/etc/zuul-ca# env CN=zuulv3.openstack.org CATOP=. SSLEAY_CONFIG="-config ./openssl.cnf" /usr/lib/ssl/misc/CA.sh -newca

Generate a Cerfificate Request

Each service that requires a SSL certificate will need to first request a certificate. Below we'll be create the private key for a gearman server.

root@puppetmaster:~# umask 077
root@puppetmaster:~# cd /etc/zuul-ca
root@puppetmaster:/etc/zuul-ca# env CN=gearman.server CATOP=. SSLEAY_CONFIG="-config ./openssl.cnf" /usr/lib/ssl/misc/CA.sh -newreq-nodes
Generating a 2048 bit RSA private key
.......+++
....+++
writing new private key to 'newreq.pem'
-----
Request (and private key) is in newreq.pem

Signing a Certificate Request

Next we need to sign the request from above, which creates the public certificate for our service to run. By default SSL certificates are valid for 1 year.

root@puppetmaster:~# cd /etc/zuul-ca
root@puppetmaster:/etc/zuul-ca# env CN=gearman.server CATOP=. SSLEAY_CONFIG="-config ./openssl.cnf" /usr/lib/ssl/misc/CA.sh -sign

Signed certificate is in newcert.pem

Installing the Certificates

2 files will have been created, newcert.pem (public key) and newreq.pem (private key). Be sure to use caution while transporting these files, specifcially newreq.pem should be added into private hieradata for the specific server and then deleted from disk.

root@puppetmaster:~# cd /etc/zuul-ca
root@puppetmaster:/etc/zuul-ca# /opt/system-config/production/tools/hieraedit.py \
> --yaml /etc/puppet/hieradata/production/group/gearman.yaml \
> -f newreq.pem gearman_ssl_key
root@puppetmaster:/etc/zuul-ca# /opt/system-config/production/tools/hieraedit.py \
> --yaml /etc/puppet/hieradata/production/group/gearman.yaml \
> -f newcert.pem gearman_ssl_cert
root@puppetmaster:/etc/zuul-ca# shred newreq.pem
root@puppetmaster:/etc/zuul-ca# rm newcert.pem newreq.pem

NOTE Be sure to delete newcert.pem and newreq.pem from the top-level directory once complete. This helps avoid leaking our private keys.
