mitm: Forwarder should be able to request certificates from an external CA

Open mattb-nn opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Forwarder should be able to interact with an external service (such as Hashicorp Vault) to request a certificate / send a certificate signing request.

This certificate / signing request could then be subject to the CA's validity / scope constraints, and sensitive key material kept away from user-facing services.

The sucessfully-generated / signed certificate would be cached by the Forwarder instance.

I agree that makes a lot of sense.
