Introduce a new generic private / public certificate + password / token manager api / Vault API

XMLWordPrintable

    • MOODLE_400_STABLE

      There is a growing need to have a consistent way of managing security related credentials inside the db in a more robust way. There is probably at least a dozen tables that manage their own passwords which have reinvented things themselves, and with broad spectrum of how they handle things.

      I'd call this something like a 'vault api' and it would cover a few related tasks:

      1) generating / rolling / revoking passwords

      2) creating private / public key cert pairs

      3) managing all encrypted db fields consistently using private keys which are only on disk

      4) rolling keys and gracefully migrating data

       

      Tasks:

      • validate_user_key / create_user_key / etc internally encrypt all keys
