Description Florence Blanc-Renaud 2022-11-22 07:24:07 UTC

Cloned from upstream: https://pagure.io/freeipa/issue/9259

### Issue
AES-128-CBC was recently enabled as default wrapping algorithm for transport of secrets.

This change was done in favor of FIPS as crypto-policies disabled 3DES in RHEL9, but
setting AES as default ended-up breaking backwards compatibility with older RHEL systems.

#### Steps to Reproduce
1. spawn a topology with a rhel7.9 server, and a rhel8.7 client
2. add a vault from the client: "ipa vault-add vault"

#### Actual behavior
Client fails with: "ipa: ERROR: an internal error has occurred", for other combinations you could see: "ipa: ERROR: Unknown option: wrapping_algo"

Without FIPS:

oldServer + newReplica + newClient

    client fails with: "ipa: ERROR: Unknown option: wrapping_algo"
    replica works
    master works
    newServer + oldClient:
    client fails with: "ipa: ERROR: an internal error has occurred"
    server works

with FIPS:

oldServer + newReplica + newClient:

    client fails with: "ipa: ERROR: Unknown option: wrapping_algo"
    replica works
    master works
    newServer + oldClient:
    client fails with: "ipa: ERROR: an internal error has occurred"
    server works

where old is RHEL7 and new is RHEL8

#### Expected behavior
ipa vaults work when running in mixed topologies.


#### Additional info:
The new wrapping algo implementation:

40c362e1eeb000867d0e6244ce03b66b6a35e913
"Support AES for KRA archival wrapping"

introduced a new option "--wrapping-algorithm" for "ipa vault-[retrieve/archive]" that is supposed to be internal only, actually it doesn't work. It should be hidden.

Comment 3 Florence Blanc-Renaud 2022-11-22 07:37:24 UTC

The fix is also needed on RHEL 9.0z (9.0 contains 4.9.8 + the patch adding the new option "--wrapping-algorithm") and 9.1 (contains 4.10.0 which embeds the new option).
