Updating RootPKIPath but not IntermediatePKIPath would not update
leaf signing certs with the new root. Unsure if this happens in practice
but manual testing showed it is a bug that would break mesh and agent
connections once the old root is pruned.
* Rename Intermediate cert references to LeafSigningCert
Within the Consul CA subsystem, the term "Intermediate"
is confusing because the meaning changes depending on
provider and datacenter (primary vs secondary). For
example, when using the Consul CA the "ActiveIntermediate"
may return the root certificate in a primary datacenter.
At a high level, we are interested in knowing which
CA is responsible for signing leaf certs, regardless of
its position in a certificate chain. This rename makes
the intent clearer.
* Move provider state check earlier
* Remove calls to GenerateLeafSigningCert
GenerateLeafSigningCert (formerly known
as GenerateIntermediate) is vestigial in
non-Vault providers, as it simply returns
the root certificate in primary
datacenters.
By folding Vault's intermediate cert logic
into `GenerateRoot` we can encapsulate
the intermediate cert handling within
`newCARoot`.
* Move GenerateLeafSigningCert out of PrimaryProvidder
Now that the Vault Provider calls
GenerateLeafSigningCert within
GenerateRoot, we can remove the method
from all other providers that never
used it in a meaningful way.
* Add test for IntermediatePEM
* Rename GenerateRoot to GenerateCAChain
"Root" was being overloaded in the Consul CA
context, as different providers and configs
resulted in a single root certificate or
a chain originating from an external trusted
CA. Since the Vault provider also generates
intermediates, it seems more accurate to
call this a CAChain.
The fix outlined and merged in #15253 fixed the issue as it occurs in the primary
DC. There is a similar issue that arises when vault is used as the Connect CA in a
secondary datacenter that is fixed by this PR.
Additionally: this PR adds support to run the existing suite of vault related integration
tests against the last 4 versions of vault (1.9, 1.10, 1.11, 1.12)
For mTLS to work between two proxies in peered clusters with different root CAs,
proxies need to configure their outbound listener to use different root certificates
for validation.
Up until peering was introduced proxies would only ever use one set of root certificates
to validate all mesh traffic, both inbound and outbound. Now an upstream proxy
may have a leaf certificate signed by a CA that's different from the dialing proxy's.
This PR makes changes to proxycfg and xds so that the upstream TLS validation
uses different root certificates depending on which cluster is being dialed.
* ca: move provider creation into CAManager
This further decouples the CAManager from Server. It reduces the interface between them and
removes the need for the SetLogger method on providers.
* ca: move SignCertificate to CAManager
To reduce the scope of Server, and keep all the CA logic together
* ca: move SignCertificate to the file where it is used
* auto-config: move autoConfigBackend impl off of Server
Most of these methods are used exclusively for the AutoConfig RPC
endpoint. This PR uses a pattern that we've used in other places as an
incremental step to reducing the scope of Server.

As part of this change, we ensure that the SAN extensions are marked as
critical when the subject is empty so that AWS PCA tolerates the loss of
common names well and continues to function as a Connect CA provider.
Parts of this currently hack around a bug in crypto/x509 and can be
removed after https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/329129 lands in
a Go release.
Note: the AWS PCA tests do not run automatically, but the following
passed locally for me:
ENABLE_AWS_PCA_TESTS=1 go test ./agent/connect/ca -run TestAWS
After fixing that bug I uncovered a couple more:
Fix an issue where we might try to cross sign a cert when we never had a valid root.
Fix a potential issue where reconfiguring the CA could cause either the Vault or AWS PCA CA providers to delete resources that are still required by the new incarnation of the CA.
* Update AWS SDK to use PCA features.
* Add AWS PCA provider
* Add plumbing for config, config validation tests, add test for inheriting existing CA resources created by user
* Unparallel the tests so we don't exhaust PCA limits
* Merge updates
* More aggressive polling; rate limit pass through on sign; Timeout on Sign and CA create
* Add AWS PCA docs
* Fix Vault doc typo too
* Doc typo
* Apply suggestions from code review
