3 TopicsiCall CRL update with Route Domains and Auto-Sync
Problem this snippet solves: iCall script to update CRL file within F5 BIG-IP when the HTTP request must run from a specific Route Domain and also uses logger to write logs to the default LTM location. The original was to also update an iFile of the CRL file for use within an iRule however I have removed that due to it being a very special case (I may add another snippet later to detail that one). Important point here is we update the CRL file located within a folder (or partition) that was linked to a Sync-Only Device Group with auto-sync enabled e.g. CRL files are created and saved to /Common/ crl / This way the iCall script does not need to trigger any sort sync and the rest of the configuration can be left as manual sync. Code : sys icall handler periodic /Common/someCrl-CrlUpdate { arguments { { name rd value 2 } { name url value https://172.31.0.1/somepath/to/crlUpdateFile.crl } { name host value somecrl.CADomein.com } { name folder value tempCrlDirectory } { name sslCrl value /Common/crl/someCrlFile.crl } } interval 600 script /Common/iCallCrlUpdate } sys icall script /Common/iCallCrlUpdate { app-service none definition { set logTag "iCallCrlUpdate" set logLevel "notice" # Getting handler provided arguments foreach arg { rd url host folder sslCrl ifileCrl } { set $arg $EVENT::context($arg) } # Create a directory to save files to disk set crlDir /var/tmp/$folder exec mkdir -p $crlDir exec /bin/logger -i -t $logTag -p local0.$logLevel "Running, CRL URL=$url, Host=$host, SSL CRL=$sslCrl, iFile CRL=$ifileCrl, Directory=$crlDir, rd=$rd" # Download CRL file from provided route domain (rd) and url arguments and save to temporary directory set status [exec /usr/bin/rdexec $rd /usr/bin/curl-apd -s -o $crlDir/LatestCRL.crl -w %{http_code} -H Host:$host $url] if {$status == 200} { # Update F5 SSL CRL file tmsh::modify sys file ssl-crl $sslCrl source-path file:$crlDir/LatestCRL.crl exec /bin/logger -t $logTag -p local0.$logLevel "F5 CRL files update complete." } else { exec /bin/logger -i -t $logTag -p local0.error "Command /usr/bin/rdexec $rd /usr/bin/curl-apd -s -o $crlDir/LatestCRL.crl -w '%{http_code}' -H 'Host: onsitecrl.trustwise.com' $url, failed with status=$status" } } description none events none } Tested this on version: 12.1821Views2likes0CommentsCreate Your Own Certificate Authority
Problem this snippet solves: The main goal of this article is to share an easy way to create your own Certificate Authority (CA) for your lab enviroment with APM module. REF - https://github.com/DariuSGB/LabCA This repository is composed by a set of scripts that give you an easy way to: Create your own root CA. Create your own intermediate CA, signed by your root CA. Create your own certs, signed by your intermediate CA or your root CA. Create your own OCSP cert, for using it in your OCSP responder. Create your own CRL cert, for using it directly in your APM. Revoke your certs (remember to refresh your CRL cert after that). Create your own PKCS#12 cert (from regular PEM certs/keys) for installing it in your windows enviroment. Invoke a OCSP responder of your certs enviroment (remember to create a OCSP cert first). How to use this snippet: Download and install your enviroment using these commands: git clone https://github.com/DariuSGB/LabCA.git cd LabCA chmod +x $(ls | grep -v README) Tested this on version: 14.1549Views0likes0CommentsSample Linux script to update CRL file from Certificate Authority
Problem this snippet solves: CRL files are signed lists of revoked serial numbers issued by a specific Certificate Authority (Verisign, Godaddy, GlobalSign, etc). There are several advanced methods of dealing with revoked certificates, the best of which is OCSP stapling. Other methods are OCSP responders or CRL Distribution Points. However, for small or internal projects, some administrators rely on simply using straight-up CRL files. After a time, the administrator will realize he or she needs to automate this process with a script. The administrator can automate this process on the BIG-IP itself with an iCall script. Here's a link to a great example of the iCall solution. However, some administrators many need to use a straight-up Linux device to pull and copy the CRL files around to many different devices, only one of which is the BIG-IP. How to use this snippet: This is a sample of a Linux script that pulls down a CRL file from GoDaddy, verifies it and then copies it to BIG-IP. Ensure that the Linux device can copy files directly to the BIG-IP via ssh-key authentication. Modify the 'f5' variable of the script to point to the BIG-IP. If not using GoDaddy, find the URL of the CRL file for the appropriate CA. If the 'ssl-crl' object hasn't been created on the BIG-IP yet, then it must be done manually the first time. Download the CRL, copy it to the BIG-IP's /var/tmp area. Then login to the BIG-IP and issue the following command: tmsh modify sys file ssl-crl gdcrl source-path file:/var/tmp/CRL After that, the script should work. Code : #!/bin/bash # # script to download a CRL from GoDaddy CA. # See this page for GoDaddy CRL information: # https://certs.godaddy.com/repository # Verify CRL # Convert CRL # Copy to BIG-IP # exit on error to prevent copying corrupt CRL to BIG-IP set -e f5=yourbigip.com f5port=22 crlurl=https://certs.godaddy.com/repository/mastergodaddy2issuing.crl gdcrturl=https://certs.godaddy.com/repository/gdig2.crt gdcrt=gdig2.crt echo "Automated CRL update Script" echo "Downloading from $crlurl" echo "Copying to ${f5}:${f5port}" echo "Last line should be SUCCESS" echo "---- GO ----" if [ ! -f $gdcrt ]; then echo "Fetching GoDaddy Certificate" curl $gdcrturl > $gdcrt fi cf=gdroot.crl last=last.crl if [ -f $cf ]; then if [ ! -s $cf ]; then echo "Found existing zero-length CRL file, deleting" rm -f $cf else echo "Found existing $cf - moving to backup" mv $cf $last fi fi echo "Downloading CRL file $cf" curl $crlurl > $cf echo "Testing $cf for readability" test -f $cf test -r $cf echo "Testing to see if $cf is zero length" test -s $cf if [ -f $last ]; then echo "Testing if $cf is newer than backup file $last" if [ ! $cf -nt $last ]; then echo "File not changed.
