Description Keith Robertson 2013-12-06 00:14:34 UTC
Description of problem:
Due to the fact that Openshift terminates SSL connections at the node level and not at the gear level, SSL mutual authentication is impossible without additional user level controls to the node level Apache VirtualHost.

Users need the ability to install CA certificates so that *clients* can be authenticated.  In an Apache proxy this is accomplished via the  SSLCACertificateFile mod_ssl setting[1].

This bug requests that the 'SSL Certificate' section of the administrator console be enhanced such that CA certificates can be uploaded for a particular gear.


[1] http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_ssl.html#sslcacertificatefile

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
1.2 and 2.0

How reproducible:
Always

Expected results:
Users have the ability to make the necessary settings for SSL mutual auth.

Expect that this will be rolled into any client cert verification implementation. Consolidating into one RFE.
