Issue #1891 has been updated by luke.

Encrypting the passphrase is a decent bit harder than just using normal ssl 
interfaces, because you have to handle the encryption yourself.

That being said, this should be relatively easy to add to the new REST stuff -- 
just make the passphrase an option to the Certificate.get call.

Feature #1891: Auto-sign certificates if sent the correct passphrase with the 
certificate request
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/1891

Author: harisekhon
Status: Accepted
Priority: Normal
Assigned to: community
Category: SSL
Target version: unplanned
Complexity: Unknown
Affected version: 0.24.6
Keywords: 


Setting an auto-sign passphrase on the puppet CA would allow a completely 
automated build of a new system that has the passphrase embedded in the 
installation script. The request should be able to take the passphrase on the 
command line via a switch.

This offers the best of all worlds, security in not auto-signing just anything, 
but still having ease of use, speed and automation of deployments of new 
systems since you'd no longer need to go to the puppetmaster's CA and manually 
type in to accept pending certificates.
