Add a new `acceptableValidityPeriods` field to cert-checker's config.
This field is a list of integers representing validity periods measured
in seconds (so 7776000 is 90 days). This field is multi-valued to enable
transitions between different validity periods (e.g. 90 days + 1 second
to 90 days, or 90 days to 30 days). If the field is not provided,
cert-checker defaults to 90 days.
Also update the way that cert-checker computes the validity period of
the certificates it is checking to include the full width of the final
second represented by the notAfter timestamp.
Finally, update the tests to support this new behavior.
Fixes#5472
Historically the only database/sql driver setting exposed via JSON
config was maxDBConns. This change adds support for maxIdleConns,
connMaxLifetime, connMaxIdleTime, and renames maxDBConns to
maxOpenConns. The addition of these settings will give our SRE team a
convenient method for tuning the reuse/closure of database connections.
A new struct, DBSettings, has been added to SA. The struct, and each of
it's fields has been commented.
All new fields have been plumbed through to the relevant Boulder
components and exported as Prometheus metrics. Tests have been
added/modified to ensure that the fields are being set. There should be
no loss in coverage
Deployability concerns for the migration from maxDBConns to maxOpenConns
have been addressed with the temporary addition of the helper method
cmd.DBConfig.GetMaxOpenConns(). This method can be removed once
test/config is defaulted to using maxOpenConns. Relevant sections of the
code have TODOs added that link back to an newly opened issue.
Fixes#5199
ACME Challenges are well-known strings ("http-01", "dns-01", and
"tlsalpn-01") identifying which kind of challenge should be used
to verify control of a domain. Because they are well-known and
only certain values are valid, it is better to represent them as
something more akin to an enum than as bare strings. This also
improves our ability to ensure that an AcmeChallenge is not
accidentally used as some other kind of string in a different
context. This change also brings them closer in line with the
existing core.AcmeResource and core.OCSPStatus string enums.
Fixes#5009
Simplify database interactions
This change is a result of an audit of all places where
Go code directly constructs SQL queries and executes them
against a dbMap, with the goal of eliminating all instances
of constructing a well-known object type (such as a
core.CertificateStatus) from explicitly-listed database columns.
Instead, we should be relying on helper functions defined in the
sa itself to determine which columns are relevant for the
construction of any given object.
This audit did not find many places where this was occurring. It
did reveal a few simplifications, which are contained in this
change:
1) Greater use of existing SelectFoo methods provided by models.go
2) Streamlining of various SelectSingularFoo methods to always
select by serial string, rather than user-provided WHERE clause
3) One spot (in ocsp-responder) where using a well-known type seemed
better than using a more minimal custom type
Addresses #4899
In a handful of places I've nuked old stats which are not used in any alerts or dashboards as they either duplicate other stats or don't provide much insight/have never actually been used. If we feel like we need them again in the future it's trivial to add them back.
There aren't many dashboards that rely on old statsd style metrics, but a few will need to be updated when this change is deployed. There are also a few cases where prometheus labels have been changed from camel to snake case, dashboards that use these will also need to be updated. As far as I can tell no alerts are impacted by this change.
Fixes#4591.
* deps: update github.com/zmap/zlint to latest.
This captures a new lint (`e_subject_printable_string_badalpha`) that
addresses a historic Let's Encrypt incident related to the allowed
PrintableString character set. It also pulls in minor housekeeping
related to consistently prefixing lint names with their respective lint
result level.
* review: fix expected lint name in TestIgnoredLint.
The upstream `zlint` project added a missing `w_` prefix on the
`ct_sct_policy_count_unsatisifed` lint that needed to be reflected in
expected test output.
Notably this brings in:
* A mild perf. boost from an updated transitive zcrypto dep and a reworked util func.
* A new KeyUsage lint for ECDSA keys.
* Updated gTLD data.
* A required `LintStatus` deserialization fix that will unblock a CFSSL update.
The `TestIgnoredLint` unit test is updated to no longer expect a warning from the
` w_serial_number_low_entropy` lint. This lint was removed in the upstream project.
`cert-checker` assumes an undefined behavior of MySQL which is only sometimes true, which means sometimes we select fewer certificates than we actually expect to. Instead of adding an explicit ORDER BY we simply switch to cursoring using the primary key, which gets us overall much more efficient usage of indexes.
Fixes#4315.
This updates the `cert-checker` utility configuration with a new allow list of
ignored lints so we can exclude known false-positives/accepted info results by
name instead of result level. To start only the `n_subject_common_name_included`
lint is excluded in `test/config-next/cert-checker.json`. Once this lands we can
treat info/warning lint results as errors as a follow-up to not break
deployability guarantees.
Resolves https://github.com/letsencrypt/boulder/issues/4271
Removes the checks for a handful of deployed feature flags in preparation for removing the flags entirely. Also moves all of the currently deprecated flags to a separate section of the flags list so they can be more easily removed once purged from production configs.

In #3651 we introduced a new parameter to sa.AddCertificate to allow specifying the Issued date. If nil, we defaulted to the current time to maintain deployability guidelines.
Now that this has been deployed everywhere this PR updates SA.AddCertificate and the gRPC wrappers such that a nil issuer argument is rejected with an error.
Unit tests that were previously using nil for the issued time are updated to explicitly set the issued time to the fake clock's now().
Resolves#3657
The Boulder orphan-finder command uses the SA's AddCertificate RPC to add orphaned certificates it finds back to the DB. Prior to this commit this RPC always set the core.Certificate.Issued field to the
current time. For the orphan-finder case this meant that the Issued date would incorrectly be set to when the certificate was found, not when it was actually issued. This could cause cert-checker to alarm based on the unusual delta between the cert NotBefore and the core.Certificate.Issued value.
This PR updates the AddCertificate RPC to accept an optional issued timestamp in the request arguments. In the SA layer we address deployability concerns by setting a default value of the current time when none is explicitly provided. This matches the classic behaviour and will let an old RA communicate with a new SA.
This PR updates the orphan-finder to provide an explicit issued time to sa.AddCertificate. The explicit issued time is calculated using the found certificate's NotBefore and the configured backdate.
This lets the orphan-finder set the true issued time in the core.Certificate object, avoiding any cert-checker alarms.

* Certchecker: Remove OCSP Must Staple err ignore, fix typos.
This commit removes the explicit ignore for OCSP Must Staple errors that
was added when the upstream `certlint` package didn't understand that
PKIX extension. That problem was resolved and so we can remove the
ignore from `cert-checker`.
This commit also fixes two typos that were fixed upstream and needed to
be reflected in expected error messages in the `certlint` unit test.
* Certchecker: Ignore Certlint CN/SAN == PSL errors.
`globalsign/certlint`, used by `cmd/cert-checker` to vet certs,
improperly flags certificates that have subj CN/SANs equal to a private
entry in the public suffix list as faulty.
This commit adds a regex that will skip errors that match the certlint
PSL error string. Prior to this workaround the addition of a private PSL
entry as a SAN in the `TestCheckCert` test cert fails the test:
```
--- FAIL: TestCheckCert (1.72s)
main_test.go:221: Found unexpected problem 'Certificate subjectAltName
"dev-myqnapcloud.com" equals "dev-myqnapcloud.com" from the public
suffix list'.
```
With the workaround in place, the test passes again.
The upstream `certlint` package doesn't understand the RFC 7633 OCSP
Must Staple PKIX Extension and flags its presence as an error. Until
this is resolved upstream this commit updates `cmd/cert-checker` to
ignore the error.
The `TestCheckCert` unit test is updated to add an unsupported extension
and the OCSP must staple extension to its test cert. Only the
unsupported extension should be flagged as a problem.
Since we can make up to 100 SQL queries from this method (based on the 100-SAN
limit), sometimes it is too slow and we get a timeout for large certificates. By
running some of those queries in parallel, we can speed things up and stop
getting timeouts.
If the feature flag "ReusePendingAuthz" is enabled, a request to create a new authorization object from an account that already has a pending authorization object for the same identifier will return the already-existing authorization object. This should make it less common for people to get stuck in the "too many pending authorizations" state, and reduce DB storage growth.
Fixes#2768
Generate first OCSP response in ca.IssueCertificate instead of ocsp-updater.newCertificateTick
if features.GenerateOCSPEarly is enabled. Adds a new field to the sa.AddCertiifcate RPC for
the OCSP response and only adds it to the certificate status + sets ocspLastUpdated if it is a
non-empty slice. ocsp-updater.newCertificateTick stays the same so we can catch certificates
that were successfully signed + stored but a OCSP response couldn't be generated (for whatever
reason).
Fixes#2477.
In https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mozilla.dev.security.policy/_pSjsrZrTWY, we had a problem with the policy authority configuration, but cert-checker didn't alert about it because it uses the same policy configuration.
This PR adds support for an explicit list of regular expressions used to match forbidden names. The regular expressions are applied after the PA has done its usual validation process in order to act as a defense-in-depth mechanism for cases (.mil, .local, etc) that we know we never want to support, even if the PA thinks they are valid (e.g. due to a policy configuration malfunction).
Initially the forbidden name regexps are:
`^\s*$`,
`\.mil$`,
`\.local$`,
`^localhost$`,
`\.localhost$`,
Additionally, the existing cert-checker.json config in both test/config/ and test/config-next/ was missing the hostnamePolicyFile entry required for operation of cert-checker. This PR adds a hostnamePolicyFile entry pointing at the existing test/hostname-policy.json file. The cert checker can now be used in the dev env with cert-checker -config test/config/cert-checker.json without error.
Resolves#2366
Boulder issue #2004 describes a panic observed in `getCerts` caused by an index out of range. It appears as though this is caused by a race condition between the initial `SelectOne` lookup for the count of certificates, and the subsequent individual `Select` queries to fetch the Certificates. If the number of eligible certificates changes between these points (e.g. due to certificates expiring) there is a potential that one of the Select calls will return an empty result set. If this happens, then the `lastSerial` update will access an index out of range.
This PR adds an explicit `len` check to the processing loop before the `lastSerial` update. If there are no results returned from the DB query then the loop is broken. This resolves#2004
A test case for the fix was written and included in this PR. The testcase initially caused the out of range panic observed in #2004. After adding the `len` fix in this commit the test began passing without error.

https://github.com/letsencrypt/boulder/pull/1773
- Remove error signatures from log methods. This means fewer places where errcheck will show ignored errors.
- Pull in latest cfssl to be compatible with errorless log messages.
- Reduce the number of message priorities we support to just those we actually use.
- AuditNotice -> AuditInfo
- Remove InfoObject (only one use, switched to Info)
- Remove EmergencyExit and related functions in favor of panic
- Remove SyslogWriter / AuditLogger separate types in favor of a single interface, Logger, that has all the logging methods on it.
- Merge mock log into logger. This allows us to unexport the internals but still override them in the mock.
- Shorten names to be compatible with Go style: New, Set, Get, Logger, NewMock, etc.
- Use a shorter log format for stdout logs.
- Remove "... Starting" log messages. We have better information in the "Versions" message logged at startup.
Motivation: The AuditLogger / SyslogWriter distinction was confusing and exposed internals only necessary for tests. Some components accepted one type and some accepted the other. This made it hard to consistently use mock loggers in tests. Also, the unnecessarily fat interface for AuditLogger made it hard to meaningfully mock out.
* Fix cert-checker panic
Fixes a silly panic in the cert-checker that would've caused it to fail outside of tests, also fixed the test to catch that silliness.
Pass log as an argument to SA. This allows us to mock it out.
Use a mockSA in CA test.
Use mockSA in orphan-finder test.
Improve logging from assert functions: Use our own printing style plus FailNow() so that each failure message isn't prefixed by "test-tools.go:60"
Remove duplicate TraceOn.

Fixes https://github.com/letsencrypt/boulder/issues/898
Also removes currently-unused 'development' DB, and do initial migrations in
parallel, which shortens create_db.sh from 20 seconds to 10 seconds.
Changes ResetTestDatabase into two functions, one each for SA and Policy DBs,
which take care of setting up the DB connection using a special higher-privileged
user called test_setup.
The ca's TestRevoke was failing occasionally.
The test was saying "has the certificate's OCSPLastUpdated been set to a
time within the last second?" as a way to see if the revocation updated
the OCSPLastUpdated. OCSPLastUpdated was not being set on revocation,
but the test still passed most of the time.
The test still passed most of the time because the creation of the
certificate (which also sets the OCSPLastUpdated) has usually happened
within the last second. So, even without revocation, the OCSPLastUpdated
was set to something in the last second because the test is fast.
Threading a clock.FakeClock through the CA induced the test to fail
consistently. Debugging and threading a FakeClock through the SA caused
changes in times reported but did not fix the test because the
OCSPLastUpdated was simply not being updated. There were not tests for
the sa.MarkCertificateRevoked API that was being called by
ca.RevokeCertificate.
Now the SA has tests for its MarkCertificateRevoked method. It uses a
fake clock to ensure not just that OCSPLastUpdated is set correctly, but
that RevokedDate is, as well. The test also checks for the
CertificateStatus's status and RevocationCode changes.
The SA and CA now use Clocks throughout instead of time.Now() allowing
for more reliable and expansive testing in the future.
The CA had to gain a public Clock field in order for the RA to use the
CertificateAuthorityImpl struct without using its constructor
function. Otherwise, the field would be nil and cause panics in the RA
tests.
The RA tests are similarly also panicking when the CAImpl attempts to
log something with its private, nil-in-those-tests log field but we're
getting "lucky" because the RA tests only cause the CAImpl to log when
they are broken.
There is a TODO there to make the CAImpl's constructor function take
just what it needs to operate instead of taking large config objects and
doing file IO and such. The Clk field should be made private and the log
field filled in for the RA tests.
