Feature Overview (aka. Goal Summary)
An elevator pitch (value statement) that describes the Feature in a clear, concise way. Complete during New status.
As an OpenShift Administrator, I need to ensure that I rotate signing keys for self-managed Openshift Azure Entra Workload ID enabled clusters to comply with PCI-DSS v4 (see #8 on life cycle management) and NIST (see PCI “Tokenization Product Security Guidelines”) rules.
Goals (aka. expected user outcomes)
The observable functionality that the user now has as a result of receiving this feature. Include the anticipated primary user type/persona and which existing features, if any, will be expanded. Complete during New status.
When creating a self-managed Openshift cluster on Azure using Azure Entra Workload ID, a dedicated OIDC endpoint is created. This endpoint exposes a document located at .well-known/openid_configuration which contains key jwks_uri, that points itself to JSON Web Key Sets.
Regular key rotations are an important part of PCI-DSS v4 and NIST rules. To ensure PCI-DSS V4 requirements, a mechanism is needed to seamlessly rotate signing keys. Currently, we can only have one signing/private key present in the OpenShift cluster; however, JWKS supports multiple public keys.
This feature will be split into 2 phases:
- Phase 1: document the feature.
- Phase 2 (post Phase 1): automate as much as we can of the feature to be informed by what's possible based on what we do in Phase 1 – this will be in a future OCPSTRAT (TBD).
Requirements (aka. Acceptance Criteria):
A list of specific needs or objectives that a feature must deliver in order to be considered complete. Be sure to include nonfunctional requirements such as security, reliability, performance, maintainability, scalability, usability, etc. Initial completion during Refinement status.

Anyone reviewing this Feature needs to know which deployment configurations that the Feature will apply to (or not) once it's been completed. Describe specific needs (or indicate N/A) for each of the following deployment scenarios. For specific configurations that are out-of-scope for a given release, ensure you provide the OCPSTRAT (for the future to be supported configuration) as well.
Deployment considerations | List applicable specific needs (N/A = not applicable) |
Self-managed, managed, or both | Self-managed |
Classic (standalone cluster) | Classic |
Hosted control planes | |
Multi node, Compact (three node), or Single node (SNO), or all | All |
Connected / Restricted Network | All |
Architectures, e.g. x86_x64, ARM (aarch64), IBM Power (ppc64le), and IBM Z (s390x) | x86_x64, ARM (aarch64) |
Operator compatibility | |
Backport needed (list applicable versions) | TBD (Affects OpenShift 4.14+) |
UI need (e.g. OpenShift Console, dynamic plugin, OCM) | |
Other (please specify) |
Use Cases (Optional):
Include use case diagrams, main success scenarios, alternative flow scenarios. Initial completion during Refinement status.
