Hi Andy, thanks for your suggestions. Here is what I have tried so far (still no luck).
Connecting with openssl and viewing the certs it presents openssl s_client -connect quickstart-es-http.es-cluster -showcerts If I then look inside the server cert I can find this Server Cert: Issuer: OU = quickstart, CN = quickstart-http X509v3 Subject Alternative Name: DNS:quickstart-es-http.es-cluster.es.local, DNS:quickstart-es-http, DNS:quickstart-es-http.es-cluster.svc, DNS:quickstart-es-http.es-cluster If I look in to the self-signed root cert I find this: Root Cert: Subject: OU = quickstart, CN = quickstart-http I now double check my trust store to make sure the Root Cert is there. Trust store content Your keystore contains 1 entry Alias name: ca_elastic Creation date: Oct 16, 2019 Entry type: trustedCertEntry Owner: CN=quickstart-http, OU=quickstart Issuer: CN=quickstart-http, OU=quickstart Serial number: 5aa50b6806d2394fff6f98d2b7d4c287 Valid from: Fri Oct 11 14:35:01 UTC 2019 until: Sat Oct 10 14:36:01 UTC 2020 Certificate fingerprints: MD5: 1E:E3:33:13:EA:AC:B5:61:23:DE:2E:1A:D7:9C:AA:F0 SHA1: 62:EC:5B:EB:32:6A:38:3D:6A:6B:F7:10:5A:DE:E6:F1:F0:5B:07:99 SHA256: B4:B5:06:9C:50:5F:E8:A1:58:7C:C7:2C:37:52:2F:E0:CF:32:18:18:68:E4:C7:37:F8:82:B3:BC:61:EB:5B:CF Signature algorithm name: SHA256withRSA Subject Public Key Algorithm: 2048-bit RSA key Version: 3 Extensions: #1: ObjectId: 2.5.29.19 Criticality=true BasicConstraints:[ CA:true PathLen:2147483647 ] #2: ObjectId: 2.5.29.37 Criticality=false ExtendedKeyUsages [ serverAuth clientAuth ] #3: ObjectId: 2.5.29.15 Criticality=true KeyUsage [ DigitalSignature Key_CertSign ] So everything looks Ok. But when I run the ElasticSearchClientServicesImpl with a SSLContext pointing to my trust store I still get the following output in the log. Caused by: javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: General SSLEngine problem at sun.security.ssl.Alerts.getSSLException(Alerts.java:192) at sun.security.ssl.SSLEngineImpl.fatal(SSLEngineImpl.java:1728) at sun.security.ssl.Handshaker.fatalSE(Handshaker.java:330) at sun.security.ssl.Handshaker.fatalSE(Handshaker.java:322) at sun.security.ssl.ClientHandshaker.serverCertificate(ClientHandshaker.java:1633) at sun.security.ssl.ClientHandshaker.processMessage(ClientHandshaker.java:216) at sun.security.ssl.Handshaker.processLoop(Handshaker.java:1052) at sun.security.ssl.Handshaker$1.run(Handshaker.java:992) at sun.security.ssl.Handshaker$1.run(Handshaker.java:989) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at sun.security.ssl.Handshaker$DelegatedTask.run(Handshaker.java:1467) at org.apache.http.nio.reactor.ssl.SSLIOSession.doRunTask(SSLIOSession.java:283) at org.apache.http.nio.reactor.ssl.SSLIOSession.doHandshake(SSLIOSession.java:353) ... 9 common frames omitted Caused by: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target at sun.security.validator.PKIXValidator.doBuild(PKIXValidator.java:397) at sun.security.validator.PKIXValidator.engineValidate(PKIXValidator.java:302) at sun.security.validator.Validator.validate(Validator.java:262) at sun.security.ssl.X509TrustManagerImpl.validate(X509TrustManagerImpl.java:324) at sun.security.ssl.X509TrustManagerImpl.checkTrusted(X509TrustManagerImpl.java:281) at sun.security.ssl.X509TrustManagerImpl.checkServerTrusted(X509TrustManagerImpl.java:136) at sun.security.ssl.ClientHandshaker.serverCertificate(ClientHandshaker.java:1620) ... 17 common frames omitted Both the Nifi install and Elastic Search install is running in Kubernetes. The address I am using is a service address that is backed by 3 ES instances. However, I double checked all three of the ES nodes to make sure that they returned back the same SSL cert and they did. The only thing I haven't been able to figure out is how to check if Kubernetes/ES reacts differently when you do a GET vs POST. Feels strange that it would return different SSL certs but stranger things have happened… On Oct 17, 2019, 3:25 PM -0500, Andy LoPresto <[email protected]>, wrote: > Hi Peter, > > If you can use openssl’s s_client command (example below) to connect to the > endpoint and verify that the hostname matches the certificate and that the > certificate contains a SubjectAlternativeName entry with that hostname (see > RFC 6125 [1] for more details), this should help you debug the issue.
