When a revoked certificate with reason 6 (certificateHold) is revoked
with reason 8 (removeFromCRL), the effect is that the certificate is
valid again, as it is the same procedure as 'state: release'.
This is, at least, the behavior with IPA CLI comands, which is
implemented by this patch.
A new test is added to verify this behavior:
tests/cert/test_cert_remove_hold_with_removeFromCRL.yml
Several fixes for the DOCUMENTATION section: The short_description tag
was 'short description', the chain option was missing and the unknown
authers tag has been removed.
There is a new certificate management module placed in the plugins
folder:
plugins/modules/ipacert.py
The certificate module allows to request, revoke, release and retrieve
certificates for users, hosts and services.
Here is the documentation for the module:
README-cert.md
New example playbooks have been added:
playbooks/cert/cert-hold.yml
playbooks/cert/cert-release.yml
playbooks/cert/cert-request-host.yml
playbooks/cert/cert-request-service.yml
playbooks/cert/cert-request-user.yml
playbooks/cert/cert-retrieve.yml
playbooks/cert/cert-revoke.yml
New tests for the module can be found at:
tests/cert/test_cert_client_context.yml
tests/cert/test_cert_host.yml
tests/cert/test_cert_service.yml
tests/cert/test_cert_user.yml
The module has been co-authored by Sam Morris (@yrro) and Rafael
Guterres Jeffman (@rjeffman).
