Feature
  • POTENTIALLY BREAKING: the cert-manager binaries and some tests have been split into separate Go modules, allowing them to be easily patched independently. This should have no impact if you simply run cert-manager in your cluster. If you import cert-manager binaries, integration tests or end-to-end tests in Go, you may need to make code changes in response to this. See https://cert-manager.io/docs/contributing/importing/ for more details. (#​5880, @​SgtCoDFish)
  • Added support for JSON logging (using --logging-format=json) (#​5828, @​malovme)
  • Added the --concurrent-workers flag that lets you control the number of concurrent workers for each of our controllers. (#​5936, @​inteon)
  • Adds acme.solvers.http01.ingress.podTemplate.spec.imagePullSecrets field to issuer spec to allow to specify image pull secrets for the ACME HTTP01 solver pod. (#​5801, @​malovme)
  • Cainjector:
    • New flags were added to the cainjector binary. They can be used to modify what injectable kinds are enabled. If cainjector is only used as a cert-manager's internal component it is sufficient to only enable validatingwebhookconfigurations and mutatingwebhookconfigurations injectable resources; disabling the rest can improve memory consumption. By default all are enabled.
    • The --watch-certs flag was renamed to --enable-certificates-data-source. (#​5766, @​irbekrm)
  • Helm: Added PodDisruptionBudgets for cert-manager components to the Helm chart (disabled by default). (#​3931, @​e96wic)
  • Helm: Egress 6443/TCP is now allowed in the webhook. This is required for OpenShift and OKD clusters for which the Kubernetes API server listens on port 6443 instead of 443. (#​5788, @​ExNG)
  • Helm: you can now add volumes and volume mounts via Helm variables for the cainjector, webhook, and startupapicheck. (#​5668, @​waterfoul)
  • Helm: you can now enable the flags --dns01-recursive-nameservers, --enable-certificate-owner-ref, and --dns01-recursive-nameservers-only through Helm values. (#​5614, @​jkroepke)
  • The DigitalOcean issuer now sets a cert-manager user agent string. (#​5869, @​andrewsomething)
  • The HTTP-01 solver can now be configured to create Ingresses with an ingressClassName. The credit goes to @​dsonck92 for implementing the initial PR. (#​5849, @​maelvls)
  • The Vault issuer can now be used with ephemeral Kubernetes tokens. With the new serviceAccountRef field, cert-manager generates a short-lived token associated to the service account to authenticate to Vault. Along with this new feature, we have added validation logic in the webhook in order to check the vault.auth field when creating an Issuer or ClusterIssuer. Previously, it was possible to create an Issuer or ClusterIssuer with an invalid value for vault.auth. (#​5502, @​maelvls)
  • The cert-manager controller container of the controller Pod now has a /livez endpoint and a default liveness probe, which fails if leader election has been lost and for some reason the process has not exited. The liveness probe is disabled by default. (#​5962, @​wallrj)
  • Upgraded Gateway API to v0.6.0. (#​5768, @​yulng)
  • Webhook now logs requests to mutating/validating webhook (with --v=5 flag) (#​5975, @​tobotg)
Design
  • Certificate issuances are always failed (and retried with a backoff) for denied or invalid CertificateRequests.
    This is not necessarily a breaking change as due to a race condition this may already have been the case. (#​5887, @​irbekrm)
  • The cainjector controller can now use server-side apply to patch mutatingwebhookconfigurations, validatingwebhookconfigurations, apiservices, and customresourcedefinitions. This feature is currently in alpha and is not enabled by default. To enable server-side apply for the cainjector, add the flag --feature-gates=ServerSideApply=true to the deployment. (#​5991, @​inteon)

Bug or Regression
  • Cmctl renew now prints an error message unless Certificate name(s) or --all are supplied (#​5896, @​maumontesilva)
  • Cmctl: In order work around a hardcoded Kubernetes version in Helm, we now use a fake kube-apiserver version when generating the helm template when running cmctl x install. (#​5720, @​irbekrm)
  • Fix development environment and go vendoring on Linux arm64. (#​5810, @​SgtCoDFish)
  • Fix ordering of remote git tags when preparing integration tests (#​5910, @​SgtCoDFish)
  • Helm: the flag --acme-http01-solver-image given to the variable acmesolver.extraArgs now has precedence over the variable acmesolver.image. (#​5693, @​SgtCoDFish)
  • Ingress and Gateway resources will not be synced if deleted via foreground cascading. (#​5878, @​avi-08)
  • The auto-retry mechanism added in VCert 4.23.0 and part of cert-manager 1.11.0 (#​5674) has been found to be faulty. Until this issue is fixed upstream, we now use a patched version of VCert. This patch will slowdown the issuance of certificates by 9% in case of heavy load on TPP. We aim to release at an ulterior date a patch release of cert-manager to fix this slowdown. (#​5805, @​inteon)
  • Upgrade to go 1.19.6 along with newer helm and containerd versions and updated base images (#​5813, @​SgtCoDFish)
  • When using the jks and pkcs12 fields on a Certificate resource with a CA issuer that doesn't set the ca.crt in the Secret resource, cert-manager no longer loop trying to copy ca.crt into truststore.jks or truststore.p12. (#​5972, @​vinzent)
  • When using the literalSubject field on a Certificate resource, the IPs, URIs, DNS names, and email addresses segments are now properly compared. (#​5747, @​inteon)
Other (Cleanup or Flake)
  • ACME account registration is now re-verified if account key is manually changed. (#​5949, @​TrilokGeer)
  • Add make go-workspace target for generating a go.work file for local development (#​5935, @​SgtCoDFish)
  • Added a Makefile target to build a standalone E2E test binary: make e2e-build (#​5804, @​wallrj)

  • Bump the distroless base images (#​5929, @​maelvls)
  • Bumps base images (#​5793, @​irbekrm)
  • Cainjector memory improvements: removes second cache of secrets, CRDs, validating/mutatingwebhookconfigurations and APIServices that should reduce memory consumption by about half.
    **BREAKING:*- users who are relying on cainjector to work when certificates.cert-manager.io CRD is not installed in the cluster, now need to pass --watch-certificates=false flag to cainjector else it will not start.
    Users who only use cainjector as cert-manager's internal component and have a large number of Certificate resources in cluster can pass --watch-certificates=false to avoid cainjector from caching Certificate resources and save some memory. (#​5746, @​irbekrm)
  • Cainjector now only reconciles annotated objects of injectable kind. (#​5764, @​irbekrm)
  • Container images are have an OCI source label (#​5722, @​james-callahan)
  • Enable cmctl to be imported by third parties (#​6050, @​jetstack-bot)
  • The acmesolver pods created by cert-manager now have automountServiceAccountToken turned off. (#​5754, @​wallrj)
  • The controller binary now uses much less memory on Kubernetes clusters with large or numerous Secret resources. The controller now ignores the contents of Secrets that aren't relevant to cert-manager. This functionality is currently placed behind SecretsFilteredCaching feature flag. The filtering mechanism might, in some cases, slightly slow down issuance or cause additional requests to kube-apiserver because unlabelled Secret resources that cert-manager controller needs will now be retrieved from kube-apiserver instead of being cached locally. To prevent this from happening, users can label all issuer Secret resources with the controller.cert-manager.io/fao: true label. (#​5824, @​irbekrm)
  • The controller memory usage has been further decreased by ignoring annotations, labels and managed fields when caching Secret resources. (#​5966, @​irbekrm)
  • The controller now makes fewer calls to the ACME server.
    POTENTIALLY BREAKING: this PR slightly changes how the name of the Challenge resources are calculated. To avoid duplicate issuances due to the Challenge resource being recreated, ensure that there is no in-progress ACME certificate issuance when you upgrade to this version of cert-manager. (#​5901, @​irbekrm)
  • The memory usage of the controller has been reduced by only caching the metadata of Pods and Services. (#​5976, @​irbekrm)
  • The number of calls made to the ACME server during the controller startup has been reduced by storing the private key hash in the Issuer's status. (#​6006, @​vidarno)

  • Validates that certificate.spec.secretName is a valid Secret name (#​5967, @​avi-08)
  • We are now testing with Kubernetes v1.27.1 by default. (#​5979, @​irbekrm)
  • certificate.spec.secretName Secrets will now be labelled with controller.cert-manager.io/fao label (#​5660, @​irbekrm)

v1.10.2

Compare Source

cert-manager is the easiest way to automatically manage certificates in Kubernetes and OpenShift clusters.

v1.10.2 is primarily a performance enhancement release which might reduce memory consumption by up to 50% in some cases thanks to some brilliant work by @​irbekrm! 🎉

It also patches several vulnerabilities reported by scanners and updates the base images used for cert-manager containers. In addition, it removes a potentially confusing log line which had been introduced in v1.10.0 which implied that an error had occurred when using external issuers even though there'd been no error.

v1.10.0

cert-manager is the easiest way to automatically manage certificates in Kubernetes and OpenShift clusters.

Version 1.10 adds a variety of quality-of-life fixes and features including improvements to the test suite.

Changes since v1.9.1

Breaking Changes (You MUST read this before you upgrade!)
Container Name Changes

This change is only relevant if you install cert-manager using Helm or the static manifest files. v1.10.0 changes the names of containers in pods created by cert-manager.

The names are changed to better reflect what they do; for example, the container in the controller pod had its name changed from cert-manager to cert-manager-controller,
and the webhook pod had its container name changed from cert-manager to cert-manager-webhook.

This change could cause a break if you:

  1. Use Helm or the static manifests, and
  2. Have scripts, tools or tasks which rely on the names of the cert-manager containers being static

If both of these are true, you may need to update your automation before you upgrade.

On OpenShift the cert-manager Pods may fail until you modify Security Context Constraints

In cert-manager 1.10 the secure computing (seccomp) profile for all the Pods is set to RuntimeDefault. (See cert-manager#​5259.) The securityContext fields of the Pod are set as follows:

...

### ref: https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/security-context/
securityContext:
  seccompProfile:
    type: RuntimeDefault
    ...

On some versions and configurations of OpenShift this can cause the Pod to be rejected by the Security Context Constraints admission webhook.
Read full release notes to learn if this might affect you and how to fix it.

Feature
  • Add issuer_name, issuer_kind and issuer_group labels to certificate_expiration_timestamp_seconds, certmanager_certificate_renewal_timestamp_seconds and certmanager_certificate_ready_status metrics (#​5461, @​dkulchinsky)
  • Add make targets for running scans with trivy against locally built containers (#​5358, @​SgtCoDFish)
  • CertificateRequests: requests that use the SelfSigned Issuer will be re-reconciled when the target private key Secret has been informed cert-manager.io/private-key-secret-name. This resolves an issue whereby a request would never be signed when the target Secret was not created or was misconfigured before the request. (#​5336, @​JoshVanL)
  • CertificateSigningRequests: requests that use the SelfSigned Issuer will be re-reconciled when the target private key Secret has been informed experimental.cert-manager.io/private-key-secret-name. This resolves an issue whereby a request would never be signed when the target Secret was not created or was misconfigured before the request.
    CertificateSigningRequets will also now no-longer be marked as failed when the target private key Secret is malformed- now only firing an event. When the Secret data is resolved, the request will attempt issuance. (#​5379, @​JoshVanL)
  • Upgraded Gateway API to v0.5.0 (#​5376, @​inteon)
  • Add caBundleSecretRef to the Vault Issuer to allow referencing the Vault CA Bundle with a Secret. Cannot be used in conjunction with the in-line caBundle field. (#​5387, @​Tolsto)
  • The feature to create certificate requests with the name being a function of certificate name and revision has been introduced under the feature flag "StableCertificateRequestName" and it is disabled by default. This helps to prevent the error "multiple CertificateRequests were found for the 'next' revision...". (#​5487, @​sathyanarays)
  • Helm: Added a new parameter commonLabels which gives you the capability to add the same label on all the resource deployed by the chart. (#​5208, @​thib-mary)
Bug or Regression
  • CertificateSigningRequest: no longer mark a request as failed when using the SelfSigned issuer, and the Secret referenced in experimental.cert-manager.io/private-key-secret-name doesn't exist. (#​5323, @​JoshVanL)
  • DNS Route53: Remove incorrect validation which rejects solvers that don't define either a accessKeyID or secretAccessKeyID. (#​5339, @​JoshVanL)
  • Enhanced securityContext for PSS/restricted compliance. (#​5259, @​joebowbeer)
    Breaking: this might require changes for OpenShift deployments. Read full release notes to learn more.
  • Fix issue where CertificateRequests marked as InvalidRequest did not properly trigger issuance failure handling leading to 'stuck' requests (#​5366, @​munnerz)

v1.9.0

Compare Source

cert-manager is the easiest way to automatically manage certificates in Kubernetes and OpenShift clusters.

The new version adds alpha support for using cert-manager Certificates in scenarios where the ordering of the Relative Distinguished Names (RDN) sequence that constitutes an X.509 certificate's subject needs to be preserved; improves the ability to configure the Certificate created via ingress-shim using annotations on the Ingress resource; introduces various changes/improvements in contributor flow; and finishes the new make-based contributor workflow.

Major Themes

Literal Certificate Subjects

cert-manager's Certificate allows users to configure the subject fields of the X.509 certificate via spec.subject and spec.commonName fields. The X.509 spec states that the subject is an (ordered) sequence of Relative Distinguished Names (RDN).

cert-manager does not strictly abide by this spec when encoding the subject fields from the Certificate spec. For example, the order of the RDN sequence may not be preserved. This is because cert-manager uses Go's libraries for X.509 certificates, and the Go libraries don't preserve ordering.

For the vast majority of users this does not matter, but there are specific cases that require defining the exact ordered RDN sequence. For example, if the certificate is used for LDAP authentication and the RDN sequence represents a location in LDAP directory tree. See cert-manager#​3203.

For these use cases, a new alpha LiteralSubject field has been added to the Certificate spec where users can pass a literal RDN sequence:

apiVersion: cert-manager.io/v1
kind: Certificate
metadata:
  name: test
spec:
  secretName: test
  literalSubject: "C=US,O=myOrg,CN=someName"

To use this field, the alpha feature gate LiteralCertificateSubject needs to be enabled on both the cert-manager controller and webhook. Bear in mind that spec.literalSubject is mutually exclusive with spec.commonName and spec.subject.

This feature is aimed at the specific scenario where an exact RDN sequence needs to be defined. We do not intend to deprecate the existing spec.subject and spec.commonName fields and we recommend that folks keep using those fields in all other cases; they're simpler, have better validation and are more obvious to read and change.

ingress-shim Certificate Configuration

cert-manager 1.9 adds the ability to configure an ingress-shim Certificate's spec.revisionHistoryLimit and spec.privateKey via annotations on the Ingress resource.

This should allow folks to configure ingress-shim Certificates according to best practices (i.e by setting Certificate's spec.privateKey.rotationPolicy to Always).

In the future we would like to design a better mechanism to configure these Certificates. We advise caution when using Ingress annotations as there is no validation of the annotations at Ingress creation time.

Contribution Workflow

Over the past couple of months there have been a number of discussions in regards to contributor experience and project health, partially triggered by the awesome community discussions in cert-manager's KubeCon booth and also by the work done to move cert-manager to CNCF's incubating stage.

For example, we've clarified our feature policy and discussed the process of building cert-manager's roadmap. If you're interested in these topics, we're happy to chat about them!

make Workflow

cert-manager 1.8 introduced a new make based workflow alongside the existing Bazel workflow. The work to improve the make workflow was continued in 1.9 and our contributor documentation has been redefined to use make commands. This should make building and testing cert-manager easier with faster build and test times, easier debugging and less complexity.

As part of this, Bazel has now been fully deprecated for building and testing cert-manager.

As usual, we welcome any feedback in regards to further improving contributor experience.
