AHF Certificate Management Enhancements
AHF now allows users with the Platinum role to import, list, and remove upload-scope certificates through the AHF command-line interface.
These operations are handled through the TFA daemon. Root-scope certificate imports remain restricted to privileged users.
For upload endpoints that use self-signed certificates, provide the server's public certificate before configuring the endpoint with ahf configuration set --type upload:
ahf security add-certificates --import-cert <CERTIFICATE> --scope upload --alias <ALIAS>
AHF stores the certificates in an upload-scoped PKCS#12 trust store and distributes the certificate material across cluster nodes for upload connection validation.
To list upload certificates, use:
ahf security list-certificates --scope upload
To remove an upload certificate, use:
ahf security remove-certificates --scope upload --alias <ALIAS>
This release also includes the following certificate-management improvements:
- Immediate use of imported upload certificates: AHF reloads its HTTP client after a successful upload-certificate import, applying the certificate without requiring a service restart.
- Relative certificate paths: Certificate imports resolve relative paths before validation so remote-node processing can locate the files correctly.
- Clearer upload certificate diagnostics: When an upload endpoint's SSL certificate cannot be validated, the CLI reports:
The SSL certificate for the upload endpoint could not be verified.This improves error reporting without changing certificate-validation behavior.
- Correct handling of customer-configured certificates: AHF corrects handling of custom CA-signed certificates so they are not incorrectly classified as self-signed or rotated back to Oracle defaults.
