Issue #1891 has been updated by Matt Wise.

My bug (7244) is essentially a more open version of whats described here. 
Rather than explicitly having Puppet handle the 'token' or 'auth code' part of 
it, it just passes that to an external script that validates the data and tells 
puppet whether or not its been accepted. This allows for each environment to 
define their own key system however they wish. You  could even pass an LDAP 
login name and password and have the script validate that against some LDAP 
server, if that was how your environment worked (im not suggesting that!).

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

Author: Hari Sekhon
Status: Accepted
Priority: Normal

Category: SSL
Target version: unplanned
Affected Puppet version: 0.24.6
Keywords: 
Branch: 


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.
