Chapter 3. Adding additional Certificate Authorities for Red Hat Quay
Certificate Authorities (CAs) are used by Red Hat Quay to verify SSL/TLS connections with external services, like ODIC providers, LDAP providers, storage providers, and so on.
The following sections provide information about uploading additional CAs to Red Hat Quay depending on your deployment type.
3.1. Adding additional Certificate Authorities to the Red Hat Quay container
The extra_ca_certs
directory is the directory where additional Certificate Authorities (CAs) can be stored to extend the set of trusted certificates. These certificates are used by Red Hat Quay to verify SSL/TLS connections with external services. When deploying Red Hat Quay, you can place the necessary CAs in this directory to ensure that connections to services like LDAP, OIDC, and storage systems are properly secured and validated.
For standalone Red Hat Quay deployments, you must create this directory and copy the additional CA certificates into that directory.
Prerequisites
- You have a CA for the desired service.
Procedure
View the certificate to be added to the container by entering the following command:
$ cat storage.crt
Example output
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- MIIDTTCCAjWgAwIBAgIJAMVr9ngjJhzbMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBCwUAMD0xCzAJBgNV... -----END CERTIFICATE-----
Create the
extra_ca_certs
in the/config
folder of your Red Hat Quay directory by entering the following command:$ mkdir -p /path/to/quay_config_folder/extra_ca_certs
Copy the CA file to the
extra_ca_certs
folder. For example:$ cp storage.crt /path/to/quay_config_folder/extra_ca_certs/
Ensure that the
storage.crt
file exists within theextra_ca_certs
folder by entering the following command:$ tree /path/to/quay_config_folder/extra_ca_certs
Example output
/path/to/quay_config_folder/extra_ca_certs ├── storage.crt----
Obtain the
CONTAINER ID
of yourQuay
consider by entering the following command:$ podman ps
Example output
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS 5a3e82c4a75f <registry>/<repo>/quay:{productminv} "/sbin/my_init" 24 hours ago Up 18 hours 0.0.0.0:80->80/tcp, 0.0.0.0:443->443/tcp, 443/tcp grave_keller
Restart the container by entering the following command
$ podman restart 5a3e82c4a75f
Confirm that the certificate was copied into the container namespace by running the following command:
$ podman exec -it 5a3e82c4a75f cat /etc/ssl/certs/storage.pem
Example output
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- MIIDTTCCAjWgAwIBAgIJAMVr9ngjJhzbMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBCwUAMD0xCzAJBgNV... -----END CERTIFICATE-----
3.2. Adding additional Certificate Authorities to Red Hat Quay on OpenShift Container Platform
On Red Hat Quay on OpenShift Container Platform, the extra_ca_certs
configuration field is is used to populate additional Certificate Authorities (CAs) into the CA directory, which then adds the CAs into the system trust bundle. These certificates are used by Red Hat Quay to verify SSL/TLS connections with external services like LDAP, OIDC, and storage systems.
When deploying or redeploying Red Hat Quay on OpenShift Container Platform, you can add one, or multiple, CAs into the CA directory to ensure that external services are properly secured and validated. On Red Hat Quay on OpenShift Container Platform deployments, you must manually add the extra_ca_certs
configuration field to your config.yaml
file and re-upload the config.yaml
to OpenShift Container Platform.
The following procedures show you how to download your existing configuration file, add additional CAs to your Red Hat Quay on OpenShift Container Platform deployment, and then re-upload the configuration file.
3.2.1. Downloading the existing configuration
The following procedure shows you how to download the existing configuration by locating the Config Bundle Secret
.
Procedure
Describe the
QuayRegistry
resource by entering the following command:$ oc describe quayregistry -n <quay_namespace>
# ... Config Bundle Secret: example-registry-config-bundle-v123x # ...
Obtain the secret data by entering the following command:
$ oc get secret -n <quay_namespace> <example-registry-config-bundle-v123x> -o jsonpath='{.data}'
Example output
{ "config.yaml": "RkVBVFVSRV9VU0 ... MDAwMAo=" }
Decode the data by entering the following command:
$ echo 'RkVBVFVSRV9VU0 ... MDAwMAo=' | base64 --decode
Example output
FEATURE_USER_INITIALIZE: true BROWSER_API_CALLS_XHR_ONLY: false SUPER_USERS: - quayadmin FEATURE_USER_CREATION: false FEATURE_QUOTA_MANAGEMENT: true FEATURE_PROXY_CACHE: true FEATURE_BUILD_SUPPORT: true DEFAULT_SYSTEM_REJECT_QUOTA_BYTES: 102400000
Optional. You can export the data into a YAML file into the current directory by passing in the
>> config.yaml
flag. For example:$ echo 'RkVBVFVSRV9VU0 ... MDAwMAo=' | base64 --decode >> config.yaml
3.2.2. Adding additional Certificate Authorities to Red Hat Quay on OpenShift Container Platform
The following example shows you how to add additional Certificate Authorities to your Red Hat Quay on OpenShift Container Platform deployment.
Prerequisites
-
You have base64 decoded the original config bundle into a
config.yaml
file. For more information, see Downloading the existing configuration. - You have a Certificate Authority (CA) file or files.
Procedure
Create a new YAML file, for example,
extra-ca-certificate-config-bundle-secret.yaml
:$ touch extra-ca-certificate-config-bundle-secret.yaml
Create the
extra-ca-certificate-config-bundle-secret
resource.Create the resource by entering the following command:
$ oc -n <namespace> create secret generic extra-ca-certificate-config-bundle-secret \ --from-file=config.yaml=</path/to/config.yaml> \ 1 --from-file=extra_ca_cert_<name-of-certificate-one>=<path/to/certificate_one> \ 2 --from-file=extra_ca_cert_<name-of-certificate-two>=<path/to/certificate_two> \ 3 --from-file=extra_ca_cert_<name-of-certificate-three>=<path/to/certificate_three> \ 4 --dry-run=client -o yaml > extra-ca-certificate-config-bundle-secret.yaml
Optional. You can check the content of the
extra-ca-certificate-config-bundle-secret.yaml
file by entering the following command:$ cat extra-ca-certificate-config-bundle-secret.yaml
Example output
apiVersion: v1 data: config.yaml: QUxMT1dfUFVMTFNfV0lUSE9VVF9TVFJJQ1RfTE9HR0lORzogZmFsc2UKQVVUSEVOVElDQVRJT05fVFlQRTogRGF0YWJhc2UKREVGQVVMVF9UQUdfRVhQSVJBVElPTjogMncKUFJFRkVSU... extra_ca_cert_certificate-one: LS0tLS1CRUdJTiBDRVJUSUZJQ0FURS0tLS0tCk1JSUQyVENDQXNHZ0F3SUJBZ0lVS2xOai90VUJBZHBkNURjYkdRQUo4anRuKzd3d0RRWUpLb1pJaHZjTkFRRUwKQlFBd2ZERUxNQWtHQ... extra_ca_cert_certificate-three: LS0tLS1CRUdJTiBDRVJUSUZJQ0FURS0tLS0tCk1JSUQ0ekNDQXN1Z0F3SUJBZ0lVQmJpTXNUeExjM0s4ODNWby9GTThsWXlOS2lFd0RRWUpLb1pJaHZjTkFRRUwKQlFBd2ZERUxNQWtHQ... extra_ca_cert_certificate-two: LS0tLS1CRUdJTiBDRVJUSUZJQ0FURS0tLS0tCk1JSUQ0ekNDQXN1Z0F3SUJBZ0lVVFVPTXZ2YVdFOFRYV3djYTNoWlBCTnV2QjYwd0RRWUpLb1pJaHZjTkFRRUwKQlFBd2ZERUxNQWtHQ... kind: Secret metadata: creationTimestamp: null name: custom-ssl-config-bundle-secret namespace: <namespace>
Create the

Update the
QuayRegistry
YAML file to reference theextra-ca-certificate-config-bundle-secret
object by entering the following command:$ oc patch quayregistry <registry_name> -n <namespace> --type=merge -p '{"spec":{"configBundleSecret":"extra-ca-certificate-config-bundle-secret"}}'
Example output
quayregistry.quay.redhat.com/example-registry patched
Ensure that your
QuayRegistry
YAML file has been updated to use the extra CA certificateconfigBundleSecret
resource by entering the following command:$ oc get quayregistry <registry_name> -n <namespace> -o yaml
Example output
# ... configBundleSecret: extra-ca-certificate-config-bundle-secret # ...
3.3. Adding custom SSL/TLS certificates when Red Hat Quay is deployed on Kubernetes
When deployed on Kubernetes, Red Hat Quay mounts in a secret as a volume to store config assets. Currently, this breaks the upload certificate function of the superuser panel.
As a temporary workaround, base64
encoded certificates can be added to the secret after Red Hat Quay has been deployed.
Use the following procedure to add custom SSL/TLS certificates when Red Hat Quay is deployed on Kubernetes.
Prerequisites
- Red Hat Quay has been deployed.
-
You have a custom
ca.crt
file.
Procedure
Base64 encode the contents of an SSL/TLS certificate by entering the following command:
$ cat ca.crt | base64 -w 0
Example output
...c1psWGpqeGlPQmNEWkJPMjJ5d0pDemVnR2QNCnRsbW9JdEF4YnFSdVd3PT0KLS0tLS1FTkQgQ0VSVElGSUNBVEUtLS0tLQo=
Enter the following
kubectl
command to edit thequay-enterprise-config-secret
file:$ kubectl --namespace quay-enterprise edit secret/quay-enterprise-config-secret
Add an entry for the certificate and paste the full
base64
encoded stringer under the entry. For example:custom-cert.crt: c1psWGpqeGlPQmNEWkJPMjJ5d0pDemVnR2QNCnRsbW9JdEF4YnFSdVd3PT0KLS0tLS1FTkQgQ0VSVElGSUNBVEUtLS0tLQo=
Use the
kubectl delete
command to remove all Red Hat Quay pods. For example:$ kubectl delete pod quay-operator.v3.7.1-6f9d859bd-p5ftc quayregistry-clair-postgres-7487f5bd86-xnxpr quayregistry-quay-app-upgrade-xq2v6 quayregistry-quay-database-859d5445ff-cqthr quayregistry-quay-redis-84f888776f-hhgms
Afterwards, the Red Hat Quay deployment automatically schedules replace pods with the new certificate data.
