Chapter 5. Securing Service Registry deployments

Procedure

1. In the OpenShift web console, click Installed Operators and Red Hat Single Sign-On Operator, and then the Keycloak tab.

2. Click Create Keycloak to provision a new Red Hat Single Sign-On instance for securing a Service Registry deployment. You can use the default value, for example:

   apiVersion: keycloak.org/v1alpha1
   kind: Keycloak
   metadata:
     name: example-keycloak
     labels:
       app: sso
   spec:
     instances: 1
     externalAccess:
       enabled: True
     podDisruptionBudget:
       enabled: True

3. Wait until the instance has been created, and click Networking and then Routes to access the new route for the keycloak instance.
4. Click the Location URL and copy the displayed URL value for later use when deploying Service Registry.

5. Click Installed Operators and Red Hat Single Sign-On Operator, and click the Keycloak Realm tab, and then Create Keycloak Realm to create a registry example realm:

   apiVersion: keycloak.org/v1alpha1
   kind: KeycloakRealm
   metadata:
     name: registry-keycloakrealm
     labels:
       app: registry
   spec:
     instanceSelector:
       matchLabels:
         app: sso
     realm:
       displayName: Registry
       enabled: true
       id: registry
       realm: registry
       sslRequired: none
       roles:
         realm:
           - name: sr-admin
           - name: sr-developer
           - name: sr-readonly
       clients:
         - clientId: registry-client-ui
           implicitFlowEnabled: true
           redirectUris:
             - '*'
           standardFlowEnabled: true
           webOrigins:
             - '*'
           publicClient: true
         - clientId: registry-client-api
           implicitFlowEnabled: true
           redirectUris:
             - '*'
           standardFlowEnabled: true
           webOrigins:
             - '*'
           publicClient: true
       users:
         - credentials:
             - temporary: false
               type: password
               value: changeme
           enabled: true
           realmRoles:
             - sr-admin
           username: registry-admin
         - credentials:
             - temporary: false
               type: password
               value: changeme
           enabled: true
           realmRoles:
             - sr-developer
           username: registry-developer
         - credentials:
             - temporary: false
               type: password
               value: changeme
           enabled: true
           realmRoles:
             - sr-readonly
           username: registry-user

   Important

   You must customize this KeycloakRealm resource with values suitable for your environment if you are deploying to production. You can also create and manage realms using the Red Hat Single Sign-On web console.

6. If your cluster does not have a valid HTTPS certificate configured, you can create the following HTTP Service and Ingress resources as a temporary workaround:

   1. Click Networking and then Services, and click Create Service using the following example:

      apiVersion: v1
      kind: Service
      metadata:
        name: keycloak-http
        labels:
          app: keycloak
      spec:
        ports:
          - name: keycloak-http
            protocol: TCP
            port: 8080
            targetPort: 8080
        selector:
          app: keycloak
          component: keycloak
        type: ClusterIP
        sessionAffinity: None
      status:
        loadBalancer: {}

      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

   2. Click Networking and then Ingresses, and click Create Ingress using the following example::

      apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
      kind: Ingress
      metadata:
        name: keycloak-http
        labels:
          app: keycloak
      spec:
        rules:
          - host: KEYCLOAK_HTTP_HOST
            http:
              paths:
                - path: /
                  pathType: ImplementationSpecific
                  backend:
                    service:
                      name: keycloak-http
                      port:
                        number: 8080

      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

      Modify the host value to create a route accessible for the Service Registry user, and use it instead of the HTTPS route created by Red Hat Single Sign-On Operator.

7. Click the Service Registry Operator, and on the ApicurioRegistry tab, click Create ApicurioRegistry, using the following example, but replace your values in the keycloak section.

   apiVersion: registry.apicur.io/v1
   kind: ApicurioRegistry
   metadata:
     name: example-apicurioregistry-kafkasql-keycloak
   spec:
     configuration:
       security:
         keycloak:
           url: "http://keycloak-http-<namespace>.apps.<cluster host>"
           # ^ Required
           # Use an HTTP URL in development.
           realm: "registry"
           # apiClientId: "registry-client-api"
           # ^ Optional (default value)
           # uiClientId: "registry-client-ui"
           # ^ Optional (default value)
       persistence: 'kafkasql'
       kafkasql:
         bootstrapServers: '<my-cluster>-kafka-bootstrap.<my-namespace>.svc:9092'

Procedure

1. In the Red Hat Single Sign-On Admin Console, create a Red Hat Single Sign-On realm for Service Registry. By default, Service Registry expects a realm name of registry. For details on creating realms, see the the Red Hat Single Sign-On user documentation.

2. Create a Red Hat Single Sign-On client for the Service Registry API. By default, Service Registry expects the following settings:

   • Client ID: registry-api
   • Client Protocol: openid-connect

   • Access Type: bearer-only

     You can use the defaults for the other client settings.

     Note

     If you are using Red Hat Single Sign-On service accounts, the client Access Type must be confidential instead of bearer-only.

3. Create a Red Hat Single Sign-On client for the Service Registry web console. By default, Service Registry expects the following settings:

   • Client ID: apicurio-registry
   • Client Protocol: openid-connect
   • Access Type: public
   • Valid Redirect URLs: http://my-registry-url:8080/*

   • Web Origins: +

     You can use the defaults for the other client settings.

4. In your Service Registry deployment on OpenShift, set the following Service Registry environment variables to configure authentication using Red Hat Single Sign-On:

   Expand

   Table 5.2. Configuration for Service Registry authentication

   Environment variable	Description	Type	Default
   AUTH_ENABLED	If set to true, the environment variables that follow are required.	String	false
   KEYCLOAK_URL	The URL of the Red Hat Single Sign-On authentication server to use.	None	KEYCLOAK_REALM
   The Red Hat Single Sign-On realm used for authentication.	String	registry	KEYCLOAK_API_CLIENT_ID
   The client ID for the Service Registry REST API.	String	registry-api	KEYCLOAK_UI_CLIENT_ID

   Show more
   Tip

   For an example of setting environment variables on OpenShift, see Section 6.1, “Configuring Service Registry health checks on OpenShift”.

5. Set the following option to true to enable Service Registry user roles in Red Hat Single Sign-On:

   Expand

   Table 5.3. Configuration for Service Registry role-based authorization

   Environment variable	Java system property	Type	Default value
   ROLE_BASED_AUTHZ_ENABLED	registry.auth.role-based-authorization	Boolean	false

   Show more

6. When Service Registry user roles are enabled, you must assign Service Registry users to at least one of the following default user roles in your Red Hat Single Sign-On realm:

   Expand

   Table 5.4. Default user roles for registry authentication and authorization

   Role	Read artifacts	Write artifacts	Global rules	Summary
   sr-admin	Yes	Yes	Yes	Full access to all create, read, update, and delete operations.
   sr-developer	Yes	Yes	No	Access to create, read, update, and delete operations, except configuring global rules. This role can configure artifact-specific rules.
   sr-readonly	Yes	No	No	Access to read and search operations only. This role cannot configure any rules.

   Show more

7. Set the following to true to enable owner-only authorization for updates to schema and API artifacts in Service Registry:

   Expand

   Table 5.5. Configuration for owner-only authorization

   Environment variable	Java system property	Type	Default value
   REGISTRY_AUTH_OBAC_ENABLED	registry.auth.owner-only-authorization	Boolean	false

   Show more

Procedure

1. Generate a keystore with a self-signed certificate. You can skip this step if you are using your own certificates.

   openssl req -newkey rsa:2048 -new -nodes -x509 -days 3650 -keyout tls.key -out tls.crt

   Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

2. Create a new secret to hold the certificate and the private key.

   1. In the left navigation menu of the OpenShift web console, click Workloads > Secrets > Create Key/Value Secret.
   2. Use the following values:
      Name: https-cert-secret
      Key 1: tls.key
      Value 1: tls.key (uploaded file)
      Key 2: tls.crt
      Value 2: tls.crt (uploaded file)

   or create the secret using the following command:

   oc create secret generic https-cert-secret --from-file=tls.key --from-file=tls.crt

   Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

3. Edit the spec.configuration.security.https section of the ApicurioRegistry CR for your Service Registry deployment, for example:

   apiVersion: registry.apicur.io/v1
   kind: ApicurioRegistry
   metadata:
     name: example-apicurioregistry
   spec:
     configuration:
       # ...
       security:
         https:
           secretName: https-cert-secret

   Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

4. Verify that the connection is working:

   1. Connect into a pod on the cluster using SSH (you can use the Service Registry pod):

      oc rsh example-apicurioregistry-deployment-6f788db977-2wzpw

      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

   2. Find the cluster IP of the Service Registry pod from the Service resource (see the Location column in the web console). Afterwards, execute a test request (we are using self-signed certificate, so an insecure flag is required):

      curl -k https://172.30.230.78:8443/health

      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

Procedure

1. Add a second Route in addition to the HTTP route created by the Service Registry Operator. For example:

   kind: Route
   apiVersion: route.openshift.io/v1
   metadata:
     [...]
     labels:
       app: example-apicurioregistry
       [...]
   spec:
     host: example-apicurioregistry-default.apps.example.com
     to:
       kind: Service
       name: example-apicurioregistry-service-9whd7
       weight: 100
     port:
       targetPort: 8080
     tls:
       termination: edge
       insecureEdgeTerminationPolicy: Redirect
     wildcardPolicy: None

   Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
   Note

   Make sure the insecureEdgeTerminationPolicy: Redirect configuration property is set.

   If you do not specify a certificate, OpenShift will use a default. Alternatively, you can generate a custom self-signed certificate using the following commands:

   openssl genrsa 2048 > tls.key &&
   openssl req -new -x509 -nodes -sha256 -days 365 -key tls.key -out tls.crt

   Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

   Then create a route using the OpenShift CLI:

   oc create route edge \
     --service=example-apicurioregistry-service-9whd7 \
     --cert=tls.crt --key=tls.key \
     --hostname=example-apicurioregistry-default.apps.example.com \
     --insecure-policy=Redirect \
     -n default
