[Impact]

Users of Ubuntu bionic running openstack clouds >= rocky
can't create octavia load balancers listeners anymore since the backport of the 
following patch:

https://opendev.org/openstack/octavia/commit/a501714a76e04b33dfb24c4ead9956ed4696d1df

This change was introduced as part of the following backports and
their posterior syncs into the current Bionic version.

This fix being SRUed here is contained in 4.8.1-0ubuntu1 (disco onwards)
but not on the Bionic version 4.6.0-0ubuntu1.

The issue gets exposed with the following octavia
packages from UCA + python-barbicanclient 4.6.0ubuntu1.

Please note that likely this python-barbicanclient dependency should
be part of UCA and not of main/universe.

 octavia-api | 3.0.0-0ubuntu3~cloud0   | rocky          | all
 octavia-api | 4.0.0-0ubuntu1.1~cloud0 | stein          | all
 octavia-api | 4.0.0-0ubuntu1~cloud0   | train          | all

This change added a new exception handler in the code
that manages the decoding of the given PCKS12 certicate bundle when the 
listener is created, this handler now captures the PCKS12 decoding error and 
then raises it preventing
the listener creation to happen (when its invoked with i.e.: 
--default-tls-container="https://10.5.0.4:9312/v1/containers/68154f38-fccf-4990-b88c-86eb3cc7fe1a";
 ) , this was originally being hidden
under the legacy code handler as can be seen here:

https://opendev.org/openstack/octavia/commit/a501714a76e04b33dfb24c4ead9956ed4696d1df

This exception is raised because the barbicanclient doesn't know how to 
distinguish between a given secret and a container, therefore, when the
user specifies a container UUID the client tries to fetch a secret with that 
uuid (including the /containers/UUID path) and a error 400 (not the expected 
404 http error) is returned.

The change proposed on the SRU makes the client aware of container and
secret UUID(s) and is able to split the path to distinguish a non-secret
(such as a container), in that way if a container is passed, it fails to
pass the parsing validation and the right return code (404) is returned
by the client.

If a error 404 gets returned, then the except Exception block gets
executed and the legacy driver code for decoding the pcks12 certicate in 
octavia is invoked, this legacy
driver is able to decode the container payloads and the decoding of the pcks12 
certificate succeeds.

This differentiation was implemented here:

https://github.com/openstack/python-
barbicanclient/commit/6651c8ffce48ce7ff08f5563a8e6212677ea0468

As an example (this worked before the latest bionic version was pushed)

openstack loadbalancer listener create --protocol-port 443 --protocol
"TERMINATED_HTTPS" --name "test-listener" --default-tls-
container="https://10.5.0.4:9312/v1/containers/68154f38-fccf-4990-b88c-
86eb3cc7fe1a" -- lb1

With the newest package upgrade this creation will fail with the
following exception:

The PKCS12 bundle is unreadable. Please check the PKCS12 bundle
validity. In addition, make sure it does not require a pass phrase.
Error: [('asn1 encoding routines', 'asn1_d2i_read_bio', 'not enough
data')] (HTTP 400) (Request-ID: req-8e48d0b5-3f5b-
4d26-9920-72b03343596a)

Further rationale on this can be found on
https://storyboard.openstack.org/#!/story/2007371

[Test Case]

1) Deploy this bundle or similar (http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/cgbwKNZHbW/)

2) Create self-signed certificate, key and ca
(http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/xyyxHZGDFR/)

3) Create the 3 certs at barbican

$ openstack secret store --name "test-pk-1" --secret-type "private"
--payload-content-type "text/plain" --payload="$(cat
./keys/controller_key.pem)"

$ openstack secret store --name "test-ca-1" --secret-type "certificate"
--payload-content-type "text/plain" --payload="$(cat
./keys/controller_ca.pem)"

$ openstack secret store --name "test-pub-1" --secret-type "certificate"
--payload-content-type "text/plain" --payload="$(cat
./keys/controller_cert.pem)"

4) Create a loadbalancer
$ openstack loadbalancer create --name lb1 --vip-subnet-id private_subnet

5) Create a secrets container

$ openstack secret container create --type='certificate' --name "test-
tls-1"
--secret="certificate=https://10.5.0.4:9312/v1/secrets/3c9109d9-05e0-45fe-9661-087c50061c00";
--secret="private_key=https://10.5.0.4:9312/v1/secrets/378e8f8c-81f5
-4b5a-bffd-c0c43a41b4a8"
--secret="intermediates=https://10.5.0.4:9312/v1/secrets/07a7564d-
b5c6-4433-a0a9-a195e2d54c57"

6) Try to create the listener

openstack loadbalancer listener create --protocol-port 443 --protocol
"TERMINATED_HTTPS" --name "test-listener" --default-tls-
container="https://10.5.0.4:9312/v1/containers/68154f38-fccf-4990-b88c-
86eb3cc7fe1a" -- lb1

With the newest package upgrade this creation will fail with the
following exception:

The PKCS12 bundle is unreadable. Please check the PKCS12 bundle
validity. In addition, make sure it does not require a pass phrase.
Error: [('asn1 encoding routines', 'asn1_d2i_read_bio', 'not enough
data')] (HTTP 400) (Request-ID: req-8e48d0b5-3f5b-
4d26-9920-72b03343596a)

[Regression Potential]


* Creation and List/Get secrets by UUID and with different prefixes (as 
container secrets) and how this can affect is something to validate with the 
new SRU.

* Please remember that this breakage is only exposed with octavia-api from UCA 
>= rocky, and affects a very minor subset of users that make use of the 
default-tls-container option when creating the listener.
The change considers both cases for compatibility so no breakage is expected on 
this front.
* Also the unit and functional tests have been included in the SRU changeset in 
order to ensure that no functionality is broken.

[Discussion]

The following changesets needs to be backported into the bionic version
4.6.0-0ubuntu1

All of those are part of 4.8.0 onward.
