Dear all,
EUGridPMA has announced a new set of CA rpms. Based on this IGTF release a new set of CA RPMs has been packaged for EGI.
This is a regular update, please upgrade until 2024.10.07 at your earliest convenience. When this time is over, SAM will throw critical errors on CA tests if old CAs are still detected.
The following release notes accompany this version:
European Grid Infrastructure EGI Trust Anchor release 1.131 2024.09.30
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For release DOCUMENTATION available on this EGI Trust Anchor release see
the EGI operations manual HOWTO-01 at https://edu.nl/envyq
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is the EGI Trust Anchor release, based on the updated IGTF Accredited CA
distribution version 1.131-1 with the specific DOGWOOD CA in
meta-package "ca-policy-egi-combined-adequacy-model-1.131-1"
that supports the model of joint assurance provision as detailed in the
EGI Policy on Acceptable Authentication Assurance.
The following notices are republished from the IGTF, inasfar as pertinent to
this release. Details are found in the newsletter https://www.eugridpma.org/
Changes from 1.130 to 1.131
---------------------------
(30 September 2024)
* removed discontinued HKU-CA-2 authority (HK)
* removed obsolete 3rd generation TCS intermediates (EU)
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
In the future releases we will move to a NEW RSA-2048 GPG PACKAGE SIGNING
key. The new public key file, GPG-KEY-EUGridPMA-RPM-4, is distributed with
this and subsequent releases. You can retrieve the new public key file from
https://dl.igtf.net/distribution/GPG-KEY-EUGridPMA-RPM-4
Ensure this key is installed now as a trusted key for package signing!
The CA modifications encoded in both "requires" and "obsoletes" clauses (RPM)
and Conflicts/Replaced clauses (Debian) have been incorporated in the above-
mentioned meta-packages. This release is best enjoyed with fetch-crl v3 or
better, available from GNU/Linux OS add-on repositories Fedora, EPEL, Debian,
and from the IGTF at https://www.igtf.net/fetch-crl
Policy on Acceptable Authentication Assurance
---------------------------------------------
If a Community or e-Infrastructure registration service is accredited by EGI
to meet the approved authentication assurance level, also an IGTF "DOGWOOD"
accredited Authority, used in combination with such a service, is sufficient.
HOWTO01, https://edu.nl/envyq#combined-assuranceadequacy-model has the details.
TECHNICALLY THIS MEANS ...
that you must ONLY install the new ca-policy-egi-cam packages if you ALSO
at the same time implement VO-specific authorization controls in your
software stack. This may require reconfiguration or a software update.
OTHERWISE
just ONLY install or update the regular ca-policy-egi-core package. There
are no changes in this case. The ca-policy-egi-core package is approved for
all VOs membership and assurance models. No configuration change is needed.
Version information: ca-policy-egi-combined-adequacy-model = 1.131-1
