Quick and dirty shell script to find unused certificates

About the non-default partitions, you could use the following:

#!/bin/sh
 
tmsh list sys file ssl-cert |  awk '/crt/ {print $4}' | sed '/^[[:space:]]*$/d' > /var/tmp/installedCerts.tmp
 
while read cert; do
  isUsed=$(find /config/ -xdev -type f -name bigip.conf -exec grep $cert {} +)
  if [ -z "$isUsed" ];then
      echo "$cert is not used"
  fi
done </var/tmp/installedCerts.tmp
 
rm /var/tmp/installedCerts.tmp

nice addition, thanks!

This is great, but one pre-requisite could be added too.

• By default, save-on-auto-sync is disabled (false). So make sure you run the save sys config command before executing the script. Else the running config may not be saved on the stored config file & the output could be misleading.

  thanks for the suggestion, the original code snippet was just cobbled together very quickly for a DC question so hadn't considered this point.

I'll update the codeshare with your suggestion.

#!/bin/sh

function buildInstalledCertsArray {

  tmsh save sys config partitions all

  tmsh list sys file ssl-cert | awk '/crt/ {print $4}' | sed '/^[[:space:]]*$/d' > /var/tmp/installedCerts.tmp

  # iterate over tmp file to create array of used certificates

  while read line; do

    for i in "${!ignoreCerts[@]}"; do

      if [[ $line = ${ignoreCerts[$i]} ]]; then

        ignore="true"

      else

        if [[ $ignore != "true" ]];then

          ignore=""

        else

          # do not add cert to array if already added

          if [[ ! " ${instCertsArr[@]} " =~ " ${line} " ]]; then

            instCertsArr+=("$line")

          fi

        fi

      fi

    done

  done </var/tmp/installedCerts.tmp

  rm /var/tmp/installedCerts.tmp

}

function buildDeleteCertsArray {

  # populate deleteCerts array

  for cert in "${instCertsArr[@]}"; do

    isUsed=$(grep $cert /config/bigip.conf /config/partitions/*/bigip.conf | grep -v -e "sys file ssl-cert" -e cache-path)

    if [ -z "$isUsed" ];then

      deleteCerts+=("$cert")

    fi

  done

}

function buildDeleteKeysArray {

  # delete any associated keys

  for cert in "${deleteCerts[@]}"; do

    #hasKey=$(tmsh list sys file ssl-key ${cert%.*}.key > /dev/null 2>&1)

    hasKey=$(tmsh list sys file ssl-key ${cert%.*}.key 2> /dev/null)

    if [ ! -z "$hasKey" ];then

      deleteKeys+=("${cert%.*}.key")

    fi

  done

}

function deleteUnusedCerts {

  if [ ${#deleteCerts[@]} -eq 0 ]; then

    echo "-------------------------------------------------------------------------"

    echo "There are no unused certificates to delete, existing"

    echo "-------------------------------------------------------------------------"

    exit 0

  else

    echo "-------------------------------------------------------------------------"

    echo "The following keys are not in use can can be deleted:"

    for cert in "${deleteCerts[@]}"; do

      echo "  ${cert}"

    done

    echo "-------------------------------------------------------------------------"

    read -p "would you like to delete these unused certificates? (y/n)?" answer

    case ${answer:0:1} in

      y|Y )

        createUcsArchive

        echo "-------------------------------------------------------------------------"

        echo "deleting certs..."

        for cert in "${deleteCerts[@]}"; do

          tmsh delete sys file ssl-cert $cert

          echo "$cert"

        done

        if [ ${#deleteKeys[@]} -eq 0 ]; then

        echo "-------------------------------------------------------------------------"

          echo "no associated keys to delete, exiting"

          exit 0

        else

          echo "-------------------------------------------------------------------------"

          echo "deleting keys..."

          for key in "${deleteKeys[@]}"; do

            tmsh delete sys file ssl-key $key

            echo "$key"

          #  exit 0

          done

        fi

        ;;

      * )

        exit 0

        ;;

    esac

  fi

}

function createUcsArchive {

  echo

  today=`date +%Y-%m-%d.%H.%M.%S`

  echo "Creating UCS archive auto.${today}.ucs"

  tmsh save sys ucs ${today}.ucs

}

# initialise vars

instCertsArr=()

deleteCerts=()

# ignore certs defined here - f5-irile.crt is used to sign F5 iRules

ignoreCerts=("f5-irule.crt" "ca-bundle.crt")

# build installed certificates array - excluding certs to ignore

buildInstalledCertsArray

# check if installed certs are used in bigip.conf (including partitions) - ltm sys files are exluded from results

buildDeleteCertsArray

# build list of associated keys (not all certs will have keys)

buildDeleteKeysArray

# optionally delete unused certs

deleteUnusedCerts

i see three errors when i run the script, i updated with corrections.

Hi Lee!! Thanks for your fantastic work!

I'm trying to execute the script but seems the ignoreCerts array is not working as expected. For example, it always found "f5-irule.crt" as a certificate to be deleted. If I add any other certificate in the chain, then all the certificates in the chain are selected to be deleted.

Is it something that I'm doing wrong or it's a bug in the script?

Thanks for your great work!
