  • Added provisioner webhooks for augmenting template data and authorizing certificate requests before signing.
  • Added automatic migration of provisioners when enabling remote management.
  • Added experimental support for CRLs.
  • Add certificate renewal support on RA mode. The step ca renew command must use the flag --mtls=false to use the token renewal flow.
  • Added support for initializing remote management using step ca init.
  • Added support for renewing X.509 certificates on RAs.
  • Added support for using SCEP with keys in a KMS.
  • Added client support to set the dialer's local address with the environment variable STEP_CLIENT_ADDR.

  • Fixed ACME support with ejabberd.

Deprecated

  • The CLIs step-awskms-init, step-cloudkms-init, step-pkcs11-init, step-yubikey-init are deprecated. Now you can use step-kms-plugin in combination with step certificates create to initialize your PKI.

[0.22.1] - 2022-08-31

Fixed

  • Fixed signature algorithm on EC (root) + RSA (intermediate) PKIs.

[0.22.0] - 2022-08-26

Added

  • Added automatic configuration of Linked RAs.
  • Send provisioner configuration on Linked RAs.

Changed

  • Certificates signed by an issuer using an RSA key will be signed using the same algorithm used to sign the issuer certificate. The signature will no longer default to PKCS #1. For example, if the issuer certificate was signed using RSA-PSS with SHA-256, a new certificate will also be signed using RSA-PSS with SHA-256.
  • Support two latest versions of Go (1.18, 1.19).
  • Validate revocation serial number (either base 10 or prefixed with an appropriate base).
  • Sanitize TLS options.

  • Added support for the --context flag. It's now possible to start the CA with step-ca --context=abc to use the configuration from context abc. When a context has been configured and no configuration file is provided on startup, the configuration for the current context is used.
  • Added startup info logging and option to skip it (--quiet).
  • Added support for renaming the CA (Common Name).

Changed
