Walkthrough

The security test certificate setup now uses a simplified OpenSSL configuration and documented regeneration commands. Certificate metadata and SSLIOP paths were updated. A new Bug 3418 regression test checks isolation between two locally initialized ORBs.

Changes

Security certificate setup

Layer / File(s) Summary
OpenSSL CA and certificate configuration
TAO/orbsvcs/tests/Security/cert/openssl.cnf
The configuration now uses 2048-bit keys, SHA-256, simplified subject fields, explicit DOCCA storage, permissive subject policy, and CA/request extensions.
Certificate regeneration commands
TAO/orbsvcs/tests/Security/cert/README, ACE/tests/SSL/regen_pem.txt
The files document CA initialization, root certificate generation, server and client certificate signing, and self-signed certificate generation.
Certificate metadata updates
TAO/orbsvcs/tests/Security/cert/DOCCA/index.txt, TAO/orbsvcs/tests/Security/cert/DOCCA/index.txt.attr
The certificate validity timestamps were extended, the server common name was shortened, and unique subjects were enabled.
SSLIOP certificate path updates
TAO/orbsvcs/tests/Security/Bug_2908_Regression/client.conf, TAO/orbsvcs/tests/Security/Bug_2908_Regression/server.conf
The client and server configurations now reference certificate and key files in the current directory.

Bug 3418 regression test

Layer / File(s) Summary
Dual-ORB isolation test
TAO/orbsvcs/tests/Security/Bug_3418_Regression/*
The new test builds and runs two ORBs with separate service configurations. It verifies successful initialization and absence of SSLIOP_Factory in the global service repository.
Security test execution
TAO/orbsvcs/tests/Security/Bug_3418_Regression/run_test.pl, TAO/bin/tao_other_tests.lst
The Perl harness runs the test with a timeout and reports its status. The test is registered in the security test list.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 2d7c6

The PR refreshes SSL certificates for OpenSSL 3 compatibility, but its certificate regeneration command can fail because the subject contains an unescaped '+'. The CA setup, reset instructions, and Bug_3418 regression validation also retain bounded correctness and test-reliability risks, so the PR is not merge-ready without owner follow-up or explicit acceptance.

Poem

A rabbit refreshes keys in the sun,
Two ORBs start, then tests are run.
SSLIOP stays within its place,
SHA-256 secures the case.
Clean results mean hopping is done.

Inline comments:
In `@TAO/orbsvcs/tests/Security/cert/openssl.cnf`:
- Around line 37-40: Update the CA_default configuration in openssl.cnf to apply
the existing v3_req extension when issuing leaf certificates by adding
x509_extensions = v3_req, or equivalently pass -extensions v3_req to both
openssl ca commands. Ensure issued certificates retain the configured CA:FALSE
and key-usage extensions.

In `@TAO/orbsvcs/tests/Security/cert/README`:
- Around line 21-27: Update the introductory CA key password statement in the
certificate-generation instructions to say that the regenerated CA key has no
password, matching the unencrypted key produced by the openssl command using
-nodes.
- Around line 15-16: Restrict the cleanup command in the directory
initialization procedure to regenerated CA, server, and client artifacts;
preserve pwTestPass_key.pem and san.pem because the later checkhost and password
tests depend on them and do not recreate them.

OpenSSL 3.5 openssl ca x509_extensions default extension section -extensions official documentation

💡 Result:

In OpenSSL, the ca command uses x509_extensions as the default section in the configuration file to specify certificate extensions to be added during issuance [1][2]. Specifically, the -extensions section command-line option defines the section of the configuration file containing the extensions to add [1]. If this option is not explicitly provided, the command defaults to using the x509_extensions section, unless an -extfile is specified [1][3]. Key points regarding this behavior: - Configuration: The section referenced (e.g., x509_extensions) must be defined within your OpenSSL configuration file (typically openssl.cnf) [1][4]. The format of these extension sections is described in the x509v3_config(5) documentation [1][4]. - V3 Certificates: If an extension section is present (even if it is empty), a V3 certificate is created [2][5]. If no extensions are specified, a V1 certificate is created by default [1][2]. - Copying Extensions: Note that simply defining these extensions does not automatically copy extensions from a certificate signing request (CSR). To handle extensions from the request, the copy_extensions option (which can be set to none, copy, or copyall) must be configured within the CA's section of the configuration file [6][2][5]. For further details on the structure of these sections, refer to the x509v3_config(5) manual page [1][7][4].

Apply v3_req when the CA issues leaf certificates.

Add x509_extensions = v3_req to CA_default, or pass -extensions v3_req to both openssl ca commands. Otherwise, issued certificates omit the configured CA:FALSE and key-usage extensions.

Correct the CA key password statement.

Line 1 states that the CA key password is DOCGroup. Line 22 uses -nodes, so this command creates an unencrypted CA key. Update Line 1 to state that the regenerated CA key has no password.

b.conf registers SSLIOP_Factory, but the current lookup does not select ORB-B's repository. Query ORBB->orb_core()->configuration() with no_global = true, fail if the factory is absent, then perform the global check.
