foreman-debug from internal satellite 6.2.15 running on rhel 6.10

Description of problem:

I've just applied  /etc/foreman-installer/custom-hiera.yaml settings from https://access.redhat.com/solutions/26833

=====
# Foreman Proxy
foreman_proxy::tls_disabled_versions: ['1.1']

# Dynflow
foreman_proxy::plugin::dynflow::tls_disabled_versions: ['1.1']

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


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install satellite 6.2.15
2. On rhel 6.10
3. Apply /etc/foreman-installer/custom-hiera.yaml 

==
# Foreman Proxy
foreman_proxy::tls_disabled_versions: ['1.1']

# Dynflow
foreman_proxy::plugin::dynflow::tls_disabled_versions: ['1.0', '1.1']

# Puppet 3
puppet::server::passenger::ssl_protocol: 'ALL -SSLv3 -TLSv1 -TLSv1.1 +TLSv1.2'

# Apache
apache::mod::ssl::ssl_protocol: ['ALL', '-SSLv3', '-TLSv1', '-TLSv1.1', '+TLSv1.2']

# Candlepin
candlepin::tls_versions: ['1.2']

# QPID Dispatch
foreman_proxy_content::qpid_router_ssl_protocols: ['TLSv1.2']
foreman_proxy_content::qpid_router_ssl_ciphers: 'ALL:!aNULL:+HIGH:-SSLv3:!IDEA-CBC-SHA'
==

Actual results:

installer fails to apply configuration, errors out

[root@satellite6 ~]# satellite-installer

Expected results:

option tls_disabled_versions: ['1.1'] is applied in the config files same way like on RHEL7

Comment 2 Stephen Benjamin 2018-07-05 10:07:05 EDT
Ruby 1.8.7 is rather unintelligent in how in converts a YAML array to strings:


irb(main):007:0> yaml['foreman_proxy::plugin::dynflow::tls_disabled_versions'].to_s
=> "1.01.1"


To fix this bug permanently we would need to change how the puppet module handles the dynflow template to look like foreman proxy:

https://github.com/theforeman/puppet-foreman_proxy/blob/master/templates/settings.yml.erb#L46-L53


** WORKAROUND **

For Dynflow you can use this as a workaround for now:

  foreman_proxy::plugin::dynflow::tls_disabled_versions: ["['1.0', '1.1']"]
Comment 3 Rich Jerrido 2018-07-05 10:46:35 EDT
Given the fact that 

- 6.2 is not the latest release of Satellite at this time, so short of extremely high severity bugs we are not adding new capabilities there. 
- this issue specifically affects _only_ RHEL6
- There is a sufficient workaround in comment #2
- The customer can (and should) upgrade to RHEL 6.3

Closing this BZ as WONTFIX. Please create a KCS article with the above workaround.
Comment 4 Stephen Benjamin 2018-07-05 10:50:43 EDT
The other issue is that Ruby 1.8.7 doesn't include the masks for disabling TLS v1.1. These are defined in the OpenSSL header files, and pulled in by the ruby library.

See: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/ruby_1_8_7/ext/openssl/ossl_ssl.c#L1474-L1476

We would need to monkey patch Ruby.  Users should move to RHEL 7 at the least, and ideally Satellite 6.3 as soon as possible.

Updated current https://access.redhat.com/solutions/26833 with this workaround for Satellite 6.2.15 running on RHEL6.
