Description

@silug

Summary

The master.allow-header-cert-info setting is explicitly deprecated and superseded by authorization.allow-header-cert-info.

Evidence

  • src/clj/puppetlabs/services/request_handler/request_handler_service.clj:30 logs: setting is deprecated and will be ignored in favor of authorization.allow-header-cert-info.
  • src/clj/puppetlabs/services/request_handler/request_handler_service.clj:31 instructs users to remove the old setting.

Proposed OpenVox Server 9 Change

  • Remove support for reading master.allow-header-cert-info.
  • Remove related warning path once old key is rejected.
  • Keep only authorization.allow-header-cert-info.

Compatibility / Risk

  • Medium risk for installations still carrying the old master key.
  • Migration is straightforward and already documented in warning text.

Implementation Notes

  • Validate config at startup and fail fast (or hard-warn) if old key is present.
  • Update sample configs/docs to remove old key references.

Acceptance Criteria

  • master.allow-header-cert-info is no longer honored.
  • Server behavior is controlled only by authorization.allow-header-cert-info.
  • No stale warning text about this migration remains once removal is complete.

Suggested Tests

  • Config validation tests for old key presence.
  • Request-handler tests verifying only authorization namespace key controls behavior.
