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 dminnich 2019-07-23 12:55:04 UTC
Description of problem:

Somebody develops an application that needs or outsources the function of a app stack that does mass cert issuing and revocation.  Puppet, Open Stack, OpenShift?  and other things use and control CAs for various pieces of their infrastructure to talk to each other. Here a sub-CA make sense.  

But the "puppet" user now needs to be able to revoke certs for anything the sub-CA has ever cut. I wouldn't want puppet to be able to revoke OpenShift certs and I wouldn't want puppet to have to auth as client-1234 or host-5678 to revoke those certs.  

If sub-CA "owner" is ambiguous maybe people tied to a caacl hooked to a profile should be able to revoke certs that profile created.  As long as that profile is tied to a specific CA I think it would accomplish the same thing.

I'm going to close this as DUPLICATE of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1730372.

Sub CAs do not have an "owner" per se, but the RBAC-like revocation permissions proposed by the other
bug would encompass restricting the permission to particular sub-CA(s).
