Verification

Finding	Evidence
#8 (deploy pipeline skips tests)	`deploy.yml:37` uses `mvn --batch-mode clean verify -Powasp`
#9 (Jackson hardening)	`SecurityConfig.java` exists and `JacksonConfig.java` enforces `FAIL_ON_UNKNOWN_PROPERTIES`
#10 (Oracle hardcoding)	`init.sql` uses `&MONITOR_APP_USER` parameterization
#11 (Docker port exposure)	All services use `${VAR_BIND_HOST:-127.0.0.1}` pattern
#12 (Kafka plaintext)	`docker-compose.secure.yml` provides SASL_SSL overlay with preflight/smoke scripts
#13 (duplicate dependency)	Removed from pom.xml (line 98-103 diff shows removal)
#14 (secret protection)	`.gitignore` properly excludes secret files

All security findings from #8-#14 are adequately addressed.

Pull request overview

Promotes the accumulated security-hardening work from develop to main, focusing on Kafka secure-mode rollout controls (SASL_SSL/TLS), tighter Docker runtime exposure defaults, and a formal readiness report for findings #8–#14.

Changes:

Added Kafka secure-mode overlay (docker-compose.secure.yml), Spring Kafka client security properties, and operational scripts (preflight/enable/smoke) to support SASL_SSL rollout.
Reduced accidental runtime exposure by binding docker-compose published ports to localhost by default and expanding .gitignore rules for secret materials.
Added/updated readiness and operations documentation, plus Oracle init.sql parameterization and a pom cleanup (duplicate security dependency removal).

+      KAFKA_INTER_BROKER_LISTENER_NAME: SASL_SSL
+      KAFKA_SASL_ENABLED_MECHANISMS: SCRAM-SHA-512
+      KAFKA_SASL_MECHANISM_INTER_BROKER_PROTOCOL: SCRAM-SHA-512
+      KAFKA_SSL_CLIENT_AUTH: required


In the secure overlay the broker sets KAFKA_SSL_CLIENT_AUTH: required, but neither kafka-connect nor backend are configured with client keystores/certs (only truststores). With required, TLS handshakes will fail unless you also provision and configure client keystores, or change this to none/requested for SASL/SCRAM-only auth.

Suggested change

KAFKA_SSL_CLIENT_AUTH: required

KAFKA_SSL_CLIENT_AUTH: none

+      KAFKA_LISTENERS: SASL_SSL://0.0.0.0:29092,SASL_SSL_HOST://0.0.0.0:9092

+      KAFKA_INTER_BROKER_LISTENER_NAME: SASL_SSL
+      KAFKA_SASL_ENABLED_MECHANISMS: SCRAM-SHA-512


The base docker-compose.yml Kafka healthcheck uses kafka-topics --bootstrap-server localhost:9092 --list (PLAINTEXT). With this overlay, 9092 becomes SASL_SSL, so the inherited healthcheck will likely fail and keep kafka unhealthy (blocking kafka-connect which depends on service_healthy). Consider overriding the healthcheck here with a TLS/SASL-aware check (or a simple port-open check) for secure mode.

+      sasl.mechanism: ${KAFKA_SASL_MECHANISM:}
+      sasl.jaas.config: ${KAFKA_SASL_JAAS_CONFIG:}


security.protocol defaults to PLAINTEXT here. The PR description’s production condition says to remove PLAINTEXT listener usage from production runtime configuration; to enforce that, consider overriding this in the prod profile to default to SASL_SSL (or fail fast by omitting a default) so production can’t silently run in PLAINTEXT if env vars are missing.

+      ssl.truststore.password: ${KAFKA_SSL_TRUSTSTORE_PASSWORD:}
+      ssl.endpoint.identification.algorithm: ${KAFKA_SSL_ENDPOINT_IDENTIFICATION_ALGORITHM:HTTPS}


ssl.endpoint.identification.algorithm defaults to HTTPS, which enforces hostname verification. With the current kafka-generate-secrets.sh self-signed cert (CN=monitor-kafka, no SANs), clients connecting to kafka / localhost will likely fail hostname verification. Either generate certificates with appropriate SANs (preferred) or document/override this default for the local secure overlay.

Suggested change

ssl.endpoint.identification.algorithm: ${KAFKA_SSL_ENDPOINT_IDENTIFICATION_ALGORITHM:HTTPS}

# Default to disabled for local self-signed/no-SAN certificates; set to HTTPS in environments with SAN-valid certs.

ssl.endpoint.identification.algorithm: ${KAFKA_SSL_ENDPOINT_IDENTIFICATION_ALGORITHM:}

The generated broker certificate does not include Subject Alternative Names (SAN). Modern Java TLS stacks typically require SAN for hostname verification, and your compose advertises kafka / localhost. Update the keytool -genkeypair invocation to include SANs for kafka, localhost, and 127.0.0.1 (or make SANs configurable) so SASL_SSL works with hostname verification enabled.

The step counters are inconsistent (Step 1/4 … Step 3/4, then Step 4/5 / Step 5/5). This is minor but confusing when operators follow the output; make the numbering consistent.

The Spanish text contains mojibake/encoding artifacts (e.g., **�la plataforma...** should use ¿), and is missing accents (e.g., está). Since this line was modified, please correct the punctuation/accents so the bilingual doc renders correctly.

The Spanish bullets added here are missing accents (evaluacion, catalogo) and mix English (readiness) into Spanish. Please correct accents and consider a consistent Spanish term (e.g., preparación/alistamiento) so this section reads cleanly.

+## 4) Verify secure mode
+- Kafka broker listener map includes `SASL_SSL`
+- Backend starts with `KAFKA_SECURITY_PROTOCOL=SASL_SSL`
+- Debezium connect worker starts with SASL settings
+


The quickstart doesn’t mention hostname verification constraints. With the current secret generation (self-signed cert without SANs) and ssl.endpoint.identification.algorithm=HTTPS default, secure mode may fail with hostname/handshake errors unless cert SANs are added or endpoint identification is overridden. Please add a note here (or adjust the scripts) so the documented flow works end-to-end.

fix(security): stabilize kafka secure bootstrap readiness

careb36 · 2026-04-02T19:05:52Z

Security evidence update (post phase9):

Merged phase9 fix into develop via fix(security): stabilize kafka secure bootstrap readiness #45 (secure bootstrap/readiness stabilization).
Re-ran secure automation end-to-end with:
- ./scripts/kafka-enable-secure-mode.sh
- ./scripts/kafka-secure-smoke.sh
Result:
- Kafka reached healthy state under SASL_SSL overlay.
- Backend and Kafka Connect started with secure env.
- Secure smoke output: PASS.

Key fixes validated:

cp-kafka zk preflight false-negative resolved via ZOOKEEPER_SASL_ENABLED=false when broker JAAS is present.
Broker certificate SANs now include kafka/localhost/monitor-kafka, fixing controller TLS hostname verification failures.
Preflight now enforces broker SCRAM + JAAS/admin artifact prerequisites.
