    Description

      Description of problem:

          The kubelet-serving CSR not approved by the machine-approver automatically as the current kubelet-serving certificate signed by the expired/old csr-signer CA. The csr-signer rotate every month with default configuration that leaves the kubelet-serving CSR unapproved.

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

          4.12

       

      $ oc get secret csr-signer -o yaml | grep "tls.crt" | awk '{print $2}' | base64 -d | openssl x509 -noout -dates
      
      notBefore=Nov 20 00:11:34 2023 GMT
      notAfter=Dec 20 00:11:35 2023 GMT

      Actual results:

      kubelet-serving CSR not getting auto-approved, as a result after the current kubelet-serving certificate expiry, unable to run commands like `oc logs`, `oc rsh`, `oc exec` , `oc debug node` etc.    

      Expected results:

          kubelet-serving CSR should get auto-approved by machine-approver

      Additional info:

       As per the code[1],the current certificate must be signed by the current CA and not expired, then only the machine-approver will approve the kubelet-serving CSR.
      
      The csr-signer CA change causing it to fail.[2]
