[Bug 230414] security/py-certifi: add option to use certificate bundle from ca_root_nss
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=230414 --- Comment #12 from Michael Osipov --- OK, let me share a bit differentiated view: * The option needs to be just like for GSS-API: GSSAPI_BASE GSSAPI_HEIMDAL GSSAPI_MIT. Converted for this we'd have: CERTS_BASE, CERTS_BUNDLED, CERTS_PORTS (ca_root_nss), CERTS_SSL (ssl.mk based) * I assume that ca_root_nss will be removed at some point in time because certctl(8) will be is available in 12.2-RELEASE (and hopefully in 11-STABLE) and having NSS certs in base and via ports looks like maintenance overhead * What should now be the default at least on 12? CERTS_BASE. Why? Because if something depends on OpenSSL from base, it should also the certs from /etc/ssl/certs. But it must obey ssl=... and point to that certs dir. If Python would have its own TLS implemenation like Java, I would be OK with having a bundled certs store. >From a pkg user's POV, it should work consistently because I cannot change it, i.e., add certs or block certs to certifi while I can with certctl(8).

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=230414 --- Comment #11 from Kubilay Kocak --- (In reply to Michael Osipov from comment #9) You're welcome Michael. What are your thoughts on a BUNDLED_CERTS or similarly named option, which uses the bundled certs when enabled (default), and ca_root_nss when disabled? My thoughts on the considerations/tradeoff space: 1) I'm not particularly a fan of 'reversed' option semantics, which can be a little confusing for users, but ... 2) The merit of having the default port/package build match upstream behaviour would seem to be nice, leaving a choice for the user to change it if they would like to, in place. 3) In this configuration, package users would (only) get the default (bundled) certs without customisation ability. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ freebsd-python@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-python To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-python-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=230414 --- Comment #7 from Michael Osipov --- (In reply to Kubilay Kocak from comment #6) While I share your view on having this solved upstream, even if this is supported one has to maintain yet another cert store. I maintain for OpenSSL, annoyingy for Java (already initiated a change to RFC 7468, see https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8224891) and now for Python, eventhough it uses OpenSSL? This is actually a maintanence nightmare. Especially because for our entprise I need to consolidate three sources: NSS, Quo Vadis and Siemens. Consider that FreeBSD, RHEL, Windows, macOS already provide means to maintain a store. That shall be enough. (see also my issues with certctl(8)) I am also fully aware of the issue on GitHub. I have already left a few comments. Christian Heimes has also mentioned you about previous work. I'd be very helpful if you could leave a comment from your POV regarding Python on FreeBSD which can help to move this forward. Moreover, 3.0.0 may take some serious time to land. I do not really want to reinvent the wheel meantime. One would need to introduce py-certifi-unix just like py-certifi-win32 which probes for the Unix version and patches appropriate bits. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ freebsd-python@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-python To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-python-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

There is now certctl(8) which already uses NSS bundle. What is the benefit to use yet another repackage of the NSS bundle from another party? Moreover, I need to add corporate CA certs which is impossible with certifi. I ned to pass manual verify path to py-requests which reduces portability of those scripts across OSes. I have to refactor code to provide such a path with argparse. What a pain. As a last resort, one could create py-certifi-freebsd just like py-certifi-win32, but this is really really ugly. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ freebsd-python@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-python To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-python-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=230414 Kubilay Kocak changed: What|Removed |Added Flags|maintainer-feedback?(sergey | |@akhmatov.ru) | --- Comment #4 from Kubilay Kocak --- (In reply to Sergey Akhmatov from comment #2) I wouldn't say anyone is strictly against anything, particularly since this is a specific (third-party ecosystem) case without an obvious policy/guideline. Having said that, not being against something doesn't automatically or necessarily mean being pro/for position a change either. For what it's worth, it's good to have references to other OS's making similar changes. I think this ultimately boils down to the distinction you make in your 'main point', which I understand and agree with. It's one thing to want to extend a provided trust store (1), its another entirely to switch out a specific set with another set ((2), what is proposed here). Also, if I understand correctly, switching certifi's store out for that provided by security/ca_root_nss, would be the first step to getting the desired feature of local extensions to that store, via bug 160387. I don't think doing (2), in order to achieve (1) is the right approach. While I understand the value of the feature being described, I also believe that with the above context, the most important thing here is still user-expectation, and principle of least astonishment. Users/developers installing certifi would expect to get the certs/store/trust model the documentation of certifi stipulates, unless options provided (officially) by that package allowed otherwise. I would still recommend making the case for the added value of the "extend-certifi-store" feature to upstream. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 230414] security/py-certifi: add option to use certificate bundle from ca_root_nss
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=230414 --- Comment #2 from Sergey Akhmatov --- (In reply to Kubilay Kocak from comment #1) I see your point. But the approach to use certifi as a wrapper to "system" trust store is not uncommon. E.g. OpenBSD and Debian is using it by default: http://cvsweb.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/ports/devel/py-certifi/patches/patch-certifi_core_py?rev=1.4=text/x-cvsweb-markup https://sources.debian.org/src/python-certifi/2018.4.16-1/debian/patches/0001-Use-Debian-provided-etc-ssl-certs-ca-certificates.cr.patch/ Is FreeBSD strictly against such approach? The main point is not to use "system" truststore, but to be able to add local trusted certificates to certifi, and certifi doesn't seem to implement it: https://github.com/certifi/python-certifi/issues/22 We could reach this goal if adding local CAs to store would be implemented in ca_root_nss and certifi just using it. Maybe we should start some discussion on maillists to hear more opinions? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Yes, in this case the patch includes it only as an OPTION, but I think this feature may ultimately be better served as an upstream issue/pull request, similar to this request for extracting OSX trust roots [2]. There is an additional benefit here of having FreeBSD support added to an upstream project, presumably also in the documentation as such.
