RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Description of problem:
libcurl upstream dropped support for delegating Kerberos tickets. This was
applied to EL6 in bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=711454
certmonger needs to be able to delegate tickets via XML-RPC to authenticate with IPA using xmlrpc-c.
Bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=719938 was created to add a new API to libcurl to do delegation.
Bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=719945 was created to add a new api to xmlrpc-c to utilize this delegation feature.
certmonger needs to be updated to use the new xmlrpc-c API.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
certmonger-0.42-1
It looks like the currently-proposed patch requires us to set "gss_delegate" to 1 in the right xmlrpc_curl_xportparms structure that we pass to xmlrpc_client_create(). We'll need to have the patch added to the xmlrpc-c package (preferably after it's integrated into upstream's tree) and to have that updated version of xmlrpc-c tagged into the buildroot before we can build a fixed certmonger.
I can make the code changes in certmonger before that, but they can't be tested properly without an xmlrpc-c. Making the xmlrpc-c bug block this one.
