katello-reverse-proxy_error_ssl
Info from more investigation, when looking at /etc/pki/katello/private/$(hostname)-foreman-proxy-client-bundle.pem, on FIPS-enabled system, it has a form of pkcs1: -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY----- ... -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY----- While on non-FIPS system, it is pkcs8: -----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY----- ... -----END PRIVATE KEY----- As https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1025057 mentions, it seems like a limitation of mod_ssl to support pkcs8 keys. I was not able to convert pkcs8 to pkcs1 on FIPS-enable machine, probably because of some algorithm being used there (perhaps MD5) The best solution I can think of is removing the SSLProxyMachineCertificateFile option, as it doesn't look like it has any reason to be there from functionality point of view (waiting for confirmation) Combining "Note: Apache httpd mod_ssl does not support PKCS#8 key format." from https://access.redhat.com/solutions/3214421 and "You can't [use BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY] because the format isn't allowed in FIPS mode because it uses MD5 for key derivation." from http://openssl.6102.n7.nabble.com/Not-getting-quot-RSA-quot-keyword-for-a-key-in-fips-mode-td58588.html, it gives us the only option of not using SSLProxyMachineCertificateFile for the capsule. Created redmine issue https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/26088 from this bug The fixes are proposed in upstream (https://github.com/theforeman/puppet-certs/pull/242, https://github.com/theforeman/puppet-foreman_proxy_content/pull/194), the reproducer machine has been patched and handed over to QEs to continue with capsule validation. It seems like this workaround https://github.com/theforeman/puppet-certs/pull/243 works on FIPS machine, while keeping the setting for proxy client cert. Deployed it on the reproducer machine for more testing. The installer passed fine with that one. Verified on Sat 6.5 snap 19 Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.
