I'm testing ztunnel on 1.22 release.
I have 2 book example apps deployed, one with sidecar and one with ambient.
The sidecar one is working, but with the ambient one I get io error: invalid peer certificate: UnknownIssuer.
We're using an AWS Private CA.

If I run ambient locally, with the certificate created by Istio, there's no intermediate certificate.

Update:
There's an issue with zTunnel when using AWS PCA and cert-manager, with a subordinate CA.

Can you provide more info on how you are using an AWS Private CA ? MeshConfig, what are the expectations, etc.

ztunnel by default is using Istiod CA.

Hi @costinm, the istio root CA is a subordinate of the AWS private root CA, we use cert-manager AWS PCA issuer to create the certificate for istio.
The only difference between running in kind with the self signed certificate and the AWS PCA was the presence of intermediate certificates.

Ah, so were you using the plugin CA feature of Istio?

Exactly, @keithmattix; we use Istio to connect multiple clusters hosted in AWS.
We had no issues when running with sidecars, and the ambient mode was being tested connecting workloads in the same cluster.

Usually it means either that ztunnel is not sending the full chain or that the top root is not properly distributed.

Not sure if we have some debug level that dumps the chain - perhaps a curl -vvv or openssl client connecting to ztunnel can show the chain that is used ( should have 3 certs instead of 2).

If that looks right - probably the root cert is the problem. We should add some debug, istiod does show the root at startup. Normally ztunnel should get all the roots from mesh config too.

@costinm, that's all I got from ztunnel 15008 port.

@costinm, here are the debug logs from a ztunnel pod.

Ok, took a bit of a look at the code - there are some problems with cacerts if tls.key is used and multiple intermediaries are used ( handled correctly on the old code path ) - but for this case it should work (the 'intermediary' chain is created by only 2 certs, since CertManager doesn't have a way to pass a longer chain AFAIK.

Can you check the cert created by AWS and make sure it's just a root + a cert ( not a longer chain ) ? The code is pretty convoluted - you may want to create an 'old style' cacerts manually (using cert-chain.pem has the entire chain starting with the CA cert associated with the key and all the way to the real root ). Again - this is in the case the chain has more than 2 elements, with 2 I think the code should work the same in both cases.

I looked a bit at the code in ztunnel - I'm not very good at rust, but it looks like caclient.rs is handling the cert response expecting a list of PEM files and does the right thing - can't repro the AWS case, but if you see more than 2 certs in the chains it's very likely to be the problem, and you can confirm by using the old-style cert-chain.pem

If you only see 2 certs in the AWS chain ( the top root and the intermediary ) - we'll need more debugging. Unfortunately the code path loading from Secret doesn't work the same, so harder to reproduce in a debugger.

@costinm, that's how the secret is created by cert-manager when using AWS PCA:

ca.crt: |
  -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
  <cert-data>
  -----END CERTIFICATE-----
tls.crt: |
  -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
  <cert-data>
  -----END CERTIFICATE-----
  -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
  <cert-data>
  -----END CERTIFICATE-----
  -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
  <cert-data>
  -----END CERTIFICATE-----
tls.key: |
  -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
  <cert-data>
  -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

We do have 3 certs in tls.crt, I think that's the issue that you mentioned, right?

cert-manager does offer a way to create a combined .pem file, but it's in alpha:

@costinm, I just tested with a root CA, instead of the subordinate CA that we were using previously, and it works.
sadly, In our case, we cannot switch to a root CA

To confirm, is this the data stored in the cacerts secret? Do you have 2 or 3 intermediate certificates?

I was able to create deeper intermediary with certmanager and it seems to also work.

Need to double check the config.

Are you sure the top level root ( last one in the chain ) is set in the secret and replicated ?

When you inspect your cacerts secret how many certs do you have in tls.crt? If I understand the cert-manager documentation correctly, the root cert is not included in the tls.crt https://cert-manager.io/docs/usage/certificate/#target-secret.

Hi @jaellio and @costinm, yes, the YAML I shared previously is the contents of cacerts secret.
The current setup is Main CA (Root) -> Istio CA (Subordinate) -> Istio Env CA (Subordinate), that's why we have 3 certs in tls.crt.

I just tested another setup, with Main CA (Root) -> Istio Test CA (Subordinate), in this case the cacerts file looked like this:

ca.crt: |
  -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
  <Root CA>
  -----END CERTIFICATE-----
tls.crt: |
  -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
  <cert-data>
  -----END CERTIFICATE-----
  -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
  <cert-data>
  -----END CERTIFICATE-----
tls.key: |
  -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
  <cert-data>
  -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

The ca.crt always contains the top-level CA.

On this second case, the result was the same, we also got an invalid peer certificate.

I think chained certs are working fine...

Cany you check:
kubectl -n istio-system get cm istio-ca-root-cert -o yaml
kubectl get secret cacerts -n istio-system -o "jsonpath={.data['ca.crt']}" |base64 -d

and make sure it's the same - and the Main CA root you use ?

costinm commented May 23, 2024

To step back - unknown Issuer means something in the chain is not known or trusted. Original guess was that the chain is bad (missing certs), but it could be that the roots are wrong. Istio does send the full chain including the top root (never understood why...) - but the actual check is against the istio-ca-root-cert which is a list of roots - and must include the root that signed the chain.

Hi @costinm, I just checked the istio-ca-root-cert , it only contains the ca.crt data, the Main CA root, not the full chain.

I 'm adding more debug info on what CAs are loaded and fixing the inconsistencies - but not sure I can help more with your case, for the intermediary I created with CertManager it seems fine.

Can you repeat the 'openssl s_client -connect 10.61.73.159:15008' command - but make sure you are connecting to a pod IP ( not ztunnel IP ), and from a VM or pod that is not ambient enabled ?

Checked with John - ztunnel IP doesn't know what cert to return, it relies on detecting the intended pod and serving its certificate.

We're getting somewhere. Looks like it's too short - missing a bunch of certs.

Will take a look again at the code - missing the full chain was my first guess, but when I tested it seemed to work.

@costinm based on the chain that I got from the istio secret, it's missing the Istio CA.
Our chain looks like this Main CA (Root) -> Istio CA (Subordinate) -> Istio Env CA (Subordinate)
Based on this, we only got the Main CA and the Istio ENV CA

On the Istio secret, it contains the three certificates.

Currently running into the same error, and what appears to be the same issue (thanks @howardjohn for linking me here). My setup consists of:

  • CA hierarchy: Root CA -> Intermediate CA -> istiod CA
    • Root and Intermediate CA are AWS Private CA; istiod CA is provisioned with cert-manager + aws-privateca-issuer
  • istio 1.22.1
  • cert-manager 1.15.0 + aws-privateca-issuer
  • cacerts secret in istio-system namespace

The cacerts secret contains the following structure:

# kubectl get secret cacerts -n istio-system -o yaml

apiVersion: v1
data:
  ca.crt:
    -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
    # root CA cert
    -----END CERTIFICATE-----
  tls.crt:
    -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
    # istiod CA cert
    -----END CERTIFICATE-----
    -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
    # intermediate CA cert
    -----END CERTIFICATE-----
  tls.key:  
    # ...
kind: Secret
type: kubernetes.io/tls

The istio-ca-root-cert secret contains the correct root CA certificate (serial number matches that of cacerts/ca.crt):

apiVersion: v1
data:
  root-cert.pem: |
    -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
    # root CA cert

From my reading of the s_client output, the HBONE mTLS tunnel port is not providing the full chain (workload cert + istiod CA cert + intermediate CA), only workload cert + istiod CA cert.

Thanks for investigating this! I can try to create the cert-chain.pem format of cacerts secret if that would be helpful.

Happy to provide debug logs or additional details.
