#2501

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Certificate uploads now reject certificates with an invalid signing chain, expired validity, or a future start date—even if they contain the expected public key. These uploads return a consistent invalid_certificate response.
    • Re-uploading an identical certificate now succeeds without creating a duplicate. Valid certificates within their validity period continue to be accepted.
    • Keys generated exactly at the current rotation time are now treated as current.

Walkthrough

Certificate uploads now verify signer provenance and certificate validity before storage. Matching certificate thumbprints return success. The handler maps provenance and validity errors to invalid_certificate. The current-key check also accepts a key generated at the current time.

Changes

Certificate upload validation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Upload validation and idempotency
esignet-service/internal/keymanager/service.go, esignet-service/internal/keymanager/service_test.go
UploadCertificate verifies the certificate signature against the hierarchy’s signer and checks NotBefore and NotAfter. Uploads with a matching thumbprint return success. Update operations reuse the timestamp established for validity checks. Service tests cover invalid provenance, expired and not-yet-valid certificates, and duplicate uploads.
Invalid-certificate response and HTTP coverage
esignet-service/internal/keymanager/handler.go, esignet-service/internal/keymanager/handler_upload_certificate_security_test.go
The handler maps provenance and validity errors to invalid_certificate. HTTP tests cover invalid certificates, duplicate uploads, and a valid renewal.

Key rotation boundary

Layer / File(s) Summary
Current-key time check

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Suggested reviewers: anushasunkada

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 7173e

The change enforces certificate signer and validity checks, permits idempotent duplicate uploads, and preserves the rotation expiry boundary. No actionable merge-blocking risk remains after normal checks.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to 7173e

The changes strengthen certificate verification and make identical uploads harmless retries. No newly introduced security weakness was established. Production authorization and recovery from interrupted certificate updates remain incompletely verified.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The sensitive outcome is replacement of certificates and validity metadata for service-managed aliases. ROOT and component-master certificates can affect downstream certificate consumers. The handler does not itself bind caller identity to applicationId, so application isolation depends on the intended administrative authorization model and deployment controls, which remain unverified.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — The new signature check closes the inspected replacement path in which a reachable caller could submit an unrelated signature while embedding the correct public key. A replacement must now carry the expected hierarchy signer's signature. No introduced or worsened attack path was established in the inspected changes; production reachability remains configuration-dependent.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — When enabled, scope middleware requires a bearer token with a verified signature, expected issuer, expiration, and configured endpoint scope; missing scope mappings fail closed. Certificate provenance independently uses internally resolved signer keys rather than caller-supplied issuer claims. Neither inspected control establishes a caller-to-application ownership binding.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — Successful internal replacement invalidates the signing, current-key, symmetric-key, and all-certificates caches. Duplicate retries make no changes and provide no reconciliation of an earlier partial update. The underlying recovery limitation predates this PR.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — As follow-up hardening, make privileged endpoint authorization fail closed when required configuration is absent and explicitly define whether upload authority is service-wide administration or restricted to particular applications.
  • proposed — For the existing persistence lifecycle, consider per-alias serialization or version checks, transactional database updates where possible, and explicit reconciliation for keystore/database partial commits and orphaned foreign-domain records.

🔒 Security & Privacy | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Add non-ROOT upload tests for hierarchy signer provenance.

UploadCertificate reaches a separate signer-loading branch for every non-ROOT reference. The current service and HTTP upload tests use only ROOT with an empty reference ID. The hierarchy tests resolve aliases, but they do not call UploadCertificate or verify a certificate signature.

Add focused upload tests for a component-signing reference and a component-encryption reference. Each test should accept a certificate signed by the resolved hierarchy key and reject one signed by an unrelated key. Without these tests, a regression in non-ROOT signer selection or provenance rejection can pass the existing suite and weaken certificate provenance enforcement.
