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 Kaleem 2014-03-24 11:58:00 UTC 
Description of problem:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[root@mclient ~]# rpm -q mod_revocator
mod_revocator-1.0.3-19.el7.x86_64
[root@mclient ~]# 

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install mod_revocator and configure to fetch CRL 

   [root@mclient conf.d]# cat revocator.conf 

#   CRL Engine Switch:
#   Enable/Disable CRL retrieval

#CRLEngine off
CRLEngine on

#   CRL Age Check Switch:
#   Shut the server down if a CRL expires
#CRLAgeCheck off
CRLAgeCheck on

#   CRL Update Critical Switch:
#   Shut the server down if a CRL cannot be retrieved
CRLUpdateCritical off
#CRLUpdateCritical on

#   CRL Helper:
#   This helper program does the actual CRL retrieval
#
#   NOTE:  Located at '/usr/bin/crlhelper' prior to 'mod_revocator-1.0.3-16'.
#
CRLHelper /usr/libexec/crlhelper

#   CRL URLs:
#   A space delimited list of URLs to retrieve and install.
#        protocol://urldata;update_interval;max_age
#CRLFile "ldap://ldap.example.com:5000/o=example.net?usercertificate%3binary?sub?(sn=Jensen)??;30;30"
#CRLFile "exec:///usr/sbin/ldapget|ldap://ldap.example.com:3389/o=example.com?userCertificate%3bbinary?sub?(uid=crl)??;30;30"
#CRLFile "https://ca.example.com:1025/getCRL?op=getCRL&issuepoint=MasterCRL;30;30"
CRLFile "http://master.testrelm.test:80/ca/ee/ca/getCRL?op=getCRL&crlIssuingPoint=MasterCRL;2;2"
#CRLFile "https://master.testrelm.test:8443/ca/ee/ca/getCRL?op=getCRL&crlIssuingPoint=MasterCRL;2;2"
#CRLFile "exec:///bin/cat|/etc/httpd/alias/crl.der;2;2"
[root@mclient conf.d]# 


2. start apache so that CRL is fetched

   Following log shown in /var/log/httpd/error_log for sucessful CRL download

[Mon Mar 24 17:20:06.312518 2014] [:info] [pid 20468] Successfully downloaded CRL at URL http://master.testrelm.test:80/ca/ee/ca/getCRL?op=getCRL&crlIssuingPoint=MasterCRL, subject = CN=Certificate Authority,O=TESTRELM.TEST, lastupdate = Mon Mar 24 17:00:00 2014, nextupdate = Mon Mar 24 21:00:00 2014
[Mon Mar 24 17:20:06.312636 2014] [:notice] [pid 20468] Revocation subsystem initialized 2

3. Now change the system date to 20 days ahead so that downloaded crl appears expired to system.

[root@mclient ~]# date -s "+20 days"

Comment 2 Nathan Kinder 2014-03-24 14:31:40 UTC 
Does this same test work on RHEL 6.x?  I'd like to determine if this is a regression or not.
Comment 3 Kaleem 2014-03-24 15:37:32 UTC 
Yes it is a regression. Same test worked on RHEL-6.5
Comment 4 Matthew Harmsen 2014-03-25 00:42:07 UTC 
(In reply to Kaleem from comment #3)
> Yes it is a regression. Same test worked on RHEL-6.5

Could you please list the versions of Apache HTTPD, mod_nss, and NSS?

Since my MasterCRL was from a running Dogtag CA, I VERIFIED that my CRL had been updated at 13:00:

# date

    I saw no change in the httpd error_log at this time
    (e. g. - no new CRL was fetched).

Note that I witnessed correct operation, albeit I obtained my MasterCRL from a running Dogtag CA on RHEL 7 rather than an IPA installation.
Comment 8 Matthew Harmsen 2014-03-26 22:06:10 UTC 
Kaleem,

Per comment #7 above, since this scenario actually worked for me, could you re-test verifying that you have the same versions of all of these components?

Thanks,

Comment 9 Kaleem 2014-03-27 08:03:35 UTC 
Matthew,

I obatained CRL from a IPA based installation and still issue re-producible at my end.

I tried on a different VM where in first attempt, i got expected result (httpd down when expired CRL is fetched) but ssh connection got disconnected and ip of VM changed.

In second attempt, i am able to reproduce the issue.

Comment 19 Matthew Harmsen 2018-04-16 20:43:07 UTC 
Rob was unable to reproduce this issue.

As the mod_revocator component is being deprecated in the next major release of RHEL, and since there is simply not strong enough demand for fixing this issue in RHEL 7.x, it has been determined that this bug will be CLOSED WONTFIX at this point in time.
