This is a Regression from subscription-manager-1.17.15-1.el7.x86_64 in RHEL73.
This also prevents using Cockpit to register a system.
The fix has been merged upstream, moving to POST awaiting inclusion in a build.
I can confirm this works in Cockpit's CI using the latest nightly compose with the version of subscription-manager specified in this bug (subscription-manager-1.19.10-1). Thanks for the quick fix!
