haproxy job from haproxy/11.15.0

The HAProxy server can be used to terminate SSL in front of the Routers. Each HAProxy instance should point to multiple Routers.

Github source: 52f491b or master branch

Properties¶

`ha_proxy`¶

Default
false
additional_unrestricted_volumes¶

Map of Additional Unrestricted volumes to added so HA Proxy to give the ability to load external volumes under BPM. These will need to be provided in a Map based on bpm unrestricted volume spec

always_allow_body_http10¶

Always allow a body to be sent when using HTTP/1.0. By default HAProxy denies GET/HEAD/DELETE requests with a body when using HTTP/1.0 due to potential request smuggling attacks. See https://github.com/haproxy/haproxy/commit/e136bd12a32970bc90d862d5fe09ea1952b62974
Default
false
backend_ca_file¶

Optional SSL CA certificate chain (PEM file) concatenated together for backend SSL servers, only used when one of the backend_ssl options is set to verify

backend_config¶

A block of raw HAProxy config that will be added to the default HTTP + routed HTTP backend definitions

backend_crt¶

Provides client certificate to backend server to do mutual ssl. Note this only configures the client cert for HTTP backends configured via the backend_servers property or through BOSH links. It is not used with backend servers configured via routed_backend_servers or TCP backends

  -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
  ******
  -----END CERTIFICATE-----
  -----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----
  ******
  -----END PRIVATE KEY-----
backend_health_fall¶

Number of consecutive unsuccessful health checks required before the server is considered unhealthy from a healthy state. The default value of 3 matches the default if the parameter is undefined. This parameter will be ignored if ha_proxy.backend_use_http_health is false.
Default
3
backend_health_rise¶

Number of consecutive successful health checks required before the server is considered healthy from an unhealthy state. The default value of 2 matches the default if the parameter is undefined. This parameter will be ignored if ha_proxy.backend_use_http_health is false.

Default
false
backend_port¶

Listening port for Router
Default

Default
""
block_all¶

Optionally block all incoming traffic to http(s). Use in conjunction with whitelist.
Default
false
buffer_size_bytes¶

Buffer size to use for requests, any requests larger than this (large cookies or query strings) will result in a gateway error

For example, 2 is if it cannot get the issuer certificate, 10 if the certificate has expired and 18 if the certificate is self-signed. The keyword ‘all’ will ignore all possible errors. Note that the errors will be ignored on both the certificate and the CA verification. See the openssl verify documentation [https://www.openssl.org/docs/manmaster/man3/X509_STORE_CTX_get_error.html] for a full list of all error codes and their meanings. See https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/master/include/openssl/x509_vfy.h.in#L206 for a mapping of error codes to symbols.

The following fields are optional: - ‘alpn’ (a optional array of strings). If both HTTP/2 and HTTP/1.1 are expected to be supported, both versions can be advertised, in order of preference - ‘client_ca_file’ (replaces ha_proxy.client_ca_file) - ‘verify’ (allowed values: [none|optional|required]) - ‘ssl_ciphers’ (overrides ha_proxy.ssl_ciphers) - ‘ssl_ciphersuites’ (overrides ha_proxy.ssl_ciphersuites) - ‘ssl_min_version’ (allowed values: [SSLv3 | TLSv1.0 | TLSv1.1 | TLSv1.2 | TLSv1.3]) - ‘ssl_max_version’ (allowed values: [SSLv3 | TLSv1.0 | TLSv1.1 | TLSv1.2 | TLSv1.3]) - ‘client_revocation_list’ (replaces ha_proxy.client_revocation_list) - ‘snifilter’ (either a string or an array of strings) The global option ha_proxy.client_cert has to be set to ‘true’, if there are crt_list entries with mutual auth configuration (‘client_ca_file’, ‘client_revocation_list’ and ‘verify’!=‘none’) To avoid confusing configurations, it’s not allowed to specify ‘client_ca_file’ and ‘client_revocation_list’ both globally AND in crt_list entries.

disable_backend_http2_websockets¶

Forward websockets to the backend servers using HTTP/1.1, never HTTP/2. Does not apply to custom routed_backend_servers. Works around https://github.com/cloudfoundry/routing-release/issues/230. Overrides backend_match_http_protocol for websockets.
Default
false
disable_domain_fronting¶

Must be one of true, false, or “mtls_only” If set to true, it will prevent clients from setting a host header different from the SNI value for HTTPS and WSS (secured websockets) connections. This is called domain fronting and is mostly used by CDNs. If domain fronting is disabled, such requests will result in a 421 Misdirected Request error. If set to “mtls_only”, the host header will only be checked against the SNI for mtls connections Example curl -H “Host: bob.com” https://alice.com <– This will result in a 421 Misdirected Request
Default
false
disable_http¶

Disable port 80 traffic
Default
false
disable_monit_health_check_http¶

The HAProxy health check endpoint returns a healthy status if at least one backend server is responding. By default when enable_health_check_http: true, Bosh will consider the HAProxy VM unhealthy if the HAProxy health check returns an unhealthy status. In some cases this might not be desired, for example when deploying HAProxy before deploying the backend servers. To prevent Bosh from considering the HAProxy VM unhealthy when all backend servers are unhealthy set disable_monit_health_check_http: true. Note that this flag is ignored unless enable_health_check_http: true.
Default
false
disable_tcp_accept_proxy¶

Disables the PROXY protocol on tcp backends. Only applies if ha_proxy.accept_proxy is enabled.

Default
0
drain_timeout¶

Time in seconds after SIGUSR1 signal is sent in the drain script until monit stops the processes
Default
30
enable_4443¶

Enables port 4443 for backwards compatibility with WSS-based apps using the old CF haproxy. If true you must provide a valid SSL config via ssl_pem or crt_list
Default
false
enable_health_check_http¶

Optionally enable http health-check on haproxy_ip:8080/health. It shows 200 OK if >0 backend servers are up. If used with ext_crt_list_timeout you should make sure that the deployment canary_watch_time and update_watch_time are configured to wait at least the number of seconds defined by ext_crt_list_timeout.
Default
false
enable_http2¶

Enables ingress (frontend) and egress (backend) HTTP/2 ALPN negotiation. Egress (backend) HTTP protocol version may be overridden by ha_proxy.backend_ssl, ha_proxy.disable_backend_http2_websockets and ha_proxy.backend_match_http_protocol.
Default
false
ext_crt_list¶

A flag denoting the use of additional certificates from external sources. If set to true the contents of an external crt-list file located at ha_proxy.ext_crt_list_file are added to the crt-list described by the ha_proxy.crt_list property. Please be aware that reloading external certificates does only work if haproxy is started in daemon mode. So this feature does not work if “haproxy.syslog_server” is set to “stdout”. If using this feature but not using internal certs, you should set ha_proxy.crt_list to be an empty array
Default
false
ext_crt_list_file¶

The location from which to load additional external certificates list
Default
/var/vcap/jobs/haproxy/config/ssl/ext/crt-list
ext_crt_list_policy¶

What to do if the external certificates list located at ha_proxy.ext_crt_list_file does not appear within the time denoted by ha_proxy.ext_crt_list_timeout. Set to either ‘fail’ (HAproxy will not start) or ‘continue’ (HAproxy will start without external certificates)
Default
fail
ext_crt_list_timeout¶

Timeout (in seconds) to wait for the external certificates list located at ha_proxy.ext_crt_list_file to appear during HAproxy startup
Default
60
forwarded_client_cert¶

This option lets you decide how to handle the X-Forwarded-Client-Cert (XFCC) http header on any https frontend. On http frontends the always_forward_only option is active by default and can’t be changed. On https frontends your options are:

always_forward_only: Least secure option. Always forward the X-Forwarded-Client-Cert header in the request, regardless of whether the client connection is mTLS. The following headers will also be forwarded if they are present in the original request: X-SSL-Client, X-SSL-Client-Session-ID, X-SSL-Client-Verify, X-SSL-Client-Subject-DN, X-SSL-Client-Subject-CN, X-SSL-Client-Issuer-DN, X-SSL-Client-NotBefore, X-SSL-Client-NotAfter. Use this value when your load balancer is forwarding the client certificate and requests are not forwarded to HAProxy over mTLS. In the case where the connection between load balancer and HAProxy is mTLS, the client certificate received by HAProxy in the mTLS handshake will not be forwarded.

forward_only: Secure version of always_forward_only. Forward the X-Forwarded-Client-Cert header received from the client only when the client connection is mTLS. The following headers will also be forwarded for mTLS connections if they are present in the original request: X-SSL-Client, X-SSL-Client-Session-ID, X-SSL-Client-Verify, X-SSL-Client-Subject-DN, X-SSL-Client-Subject-CN, X-SSL-Client-Issuer-DN, X-SSL-Client-NotBefore, X-SSL-Client-NotAfter. If the client connection does not use mTLS, these X-Forwarded-Client-Cert and X-SSL-Client-* headers will be removed if they are present. In the case where the connection between load balancer and HAProxy is mTLS, the client certificate received by HAProxy in the mTLS handshake will not be forwarded.

sanitize_set: Most secure option. Strip any instances of XFCC headers from the client request.

When the client connection is mTLS, the following headers will be overwritten in the request

X-Forwarded-Client-Cert: Contains the client certificate in binary DER format (Base64 encoded). Backends should use this header to authenticate incoming requests.

X-SSL-Client: Contains the number 1 if the request was made using a client certificate, 0 otherwise. For easy checks on the backend.

X-SSL-Client-Session-ID: The SSL session ID of the client connection. Useful for debugging purposes.

X-SSL-Client-Verify: Contains the number 0 if the client certificate verification was successful. Otherwise it contains the appropriate OpenSSL return code (see https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/master/include/openssl/x509_vfy.h.in#L206)

X-SSL-Client-Subject-DN: Contains the base64-encoded subject distinguished name of the client certificate

X-SSL-Client-Subject-CN: Contains the base64-encoded subject common name of the client certificate

X-SSL-Client-Issuer-DN: Contains the base64-encoded issuer distinguished name of the client certificate

X-SSL-Client-NotBefore: Contains the start date of the client certificate in YYMMDDhhmmss[Z] format.

X-SSL-Client-NotAfter: Contains the expiration date of the client certificate in YYMMDDhhmmss[Z] format.

forward_only_if_route_service: This option is useful to support Mutual TLS with CF Route Services. When the client connection is not mTLS, the X-Forwarded-Client-Cert and X-SSL-Client-* headers will be removed UNLESS there is an X-Cf-Proxy-Signature header. When the client connection is mTLS, the following headers will be overwritten in the request

X-Forwarded-Client-Cert: Contains the client certificate in binary DER format (Base64 encoded). Backends should use this header to authenticate incoming requests.

X-SSL-Client: Contains the number 1 if the request was made using a client certificate, 0 otherwise. For easy checks on the backend.

X-SSL-Client-Session-ID: The SSL session ID of the client connection. Useful for debugging purposes.

X-SSL-Client-Verify: Contains the number 0 if the client certificate verification was successful. Otherwise it contains the appropriate OpenSSL return code (see https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/master/include/openssl/x509_vfy.h.in#L206)

X-SSL-Client-Subject-DN: Contains the base64-encoded subject distinguished name of the client certificate

X-SSL-Client-Subject-CN: Contains the base64-encoded subject common name of the client certificate

X-SSL-Client-Issuer-DN: Contains the base64-encoded issuer distinguished name of the client certificate

X-SSL-Client-NotBefore: Contains the start date of the client certificate in YYMMDDhhmmss[Z] format.

X-SSL-Client-NotAfter: Contains the expiration date of the client certificate in YYMMDDhhmmss[Z] format.

This option is only secure if Gorouter is deployed behind Haproxy to validate that X-Cf-Proxy-Signature is coming from a route service.

hsts_preload¶

This enables the preload flag for HSTS
Default
false
http_request_deny_conditions¶

List of conditions to block http requests. Each condition consists of multiple rules combined with the AND operator. Setting the negate flag to true will negate the acl condition.
Example
http_request_deny_conditions:
- condition:
  - acl_name: block_host
    acl_rule: hdr_beg(host) -i login
  - acl_name: block_reset_password_url
    acl_rule: path_beg,url_dec -m beg -i /reset_password
  - acl_name: whitelist_ips
    acl_rule: src 5.22.5.11 5.22.5.12
    negate: true
https_redirect_all¶

If this is set to ‘true’, a https redirect rule for all http calls will be put in the config file
Default
false
https_redirect_domains¶

For each domain in this array, a HTTPS redirect rule will be put in the config file. Redirect will be applied for all subdomains
Default
[]
internal_only_domains¶

Array of domains for internal-only apps/services (not hostnames for the apps/services)
Default
[]
keepalive_timeout¶

Default
6
legacy_xfcc_header_mapping¶
Default
false
log_format¶

Default
raw
log_level¶

Log level
Default
info
log_max_length¶

Optional maximum line length. Log lines larger than this value will be truncated before being sent.
Default
1024
lua_scripts¶

A list of LUA scripts that HA Proxy should load. These will need to be provided by other boshreleases, as none are supplied in haproxy_boshrelease. Specify each script with the full path to the script (likely /var/vcap/packages/something/something/darkside.lua)

Inside these scripts, any variable set is visible from any thread. This is the easiest and recommended way to load Lua programs but it will not scale well if a lot of Lua calls are performed, as only one thread may be running on the global state at a time. A program loaded this way will always see 0 in the “core.thread” variable. This directive can be used multiple times.
Default
[]
lua_scripts_per_thread¶

A list of LUA scripts that HA Proxy should load per thread. These will need to be provided by other boshreleases, as none are supplied in haproxy_boshrelease. Specify each script with the full path to the script (likely /var/vcap/packages/something/something/darkside.lua).

Inside these scripts, any global variable has a thread-local visibility so that each thread could see a different value. As such it is strongly recommended not to use global variables in programs loaded this way. An independent copy is loaded and initialized for each thread, everything is done sequentially and in the thread’s numeric order from 1 to nbthread. If some operations need to be performed only once, the program should check the “core.thread” variable to figure what thread is being initialized. Programs loaded this way will run concurrently on all threads and will be highly scalable. This is the recommended way to load simple functions that register sample-fetches, converters, actions or services once it is certain the program doesn’t depend on global variables. For the sake of simplicity, the directive is available even if only one thread is used and even if threads are disabled (in which case it will be equivalent to lua_scripts).
Default

Default
30
raw_config¶

ssl_ciphersuites¶

List of TLSv1.3 Ciphers that are passed to HAProxy, requires at least openssl version 1.1.1
Example
TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256:TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384:TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256
ssl_pem¶

Array of private keys and certificates used for TLS handshakes with downstream clients. Each element in the array is an object containing fields ‘cert_chain’ and ‘private_key’, each of which supports a PEM block. Each element can also be a single string containing the cert chain and the private key.
Example
ssl_pem:
- cert_chain: |+
    -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
    -----END CERTIFICATE-----
    -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
    -----END CERTIFICATE-----
  private_key: |+
    -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
    -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
- |+
  -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
  -----END CERTIFICATE-----
  -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
  -----END CERTIFICATE-----
  -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
  -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
stats_bind¶

Define listening address and port for the stats frontend. If multithreading is enabled (ha_proxy.threads > 1) multiple stat pages are available - one for each thread. You can see the stat page for each thread on a separate port - starting at the defined port number.
Default
'*:9000'
stats_enable¶

If true, haproxy will enable a socket for stats. You can see the stats on haproxy_ip:9000/haproxy_stats. If multithreading is enabled (ha_proxy.threads > 1) haproxy will create a separate socket and stat page for each thread. Each stat page is reachable on a different port ranging from 9000 to 9000 + ha_proxy.threads - 1.
Default
false
stats_password¶

Password to authenticate haproxy stats

stats_uri¶

URI used to access the stats UI.
Default
haproxy_stats
stats_user¶

User name to authenticate haproxy stats

strict_sni¶

Optional setting to decide whether the SSL/TLS negotiation is allowed only if the client provided an SNI which strict match a certificate. If set to true, the default certificate is not used
Default
false
syslog_server¶

An IPv4 address optionally followed by a colon and a UDP port. It can also be an IPv6 address or filesystem path to a UNIX domain socket.
Default
stdout
tcp¶

List of mappings to perform tcp-based proxying on. See example for mapping datastructure and keys
Default
[]
Example
tcp:
- backend_port: 80
  backend_servers:
  - 10.20.10.10
  - 10.20.10.11
  backend_servers_local:
  - 10.20.10.10
  backend_ssl: verify
  backend_verifyhost: example.com
  balance: roundrobin
  health_check_http: 4444
  name: wss
  port: 4443
  ssl: true
tcp_backend_config¶

A block of raw HAProxy config that will be added to the CF TCP Router + Generic TCP backend definitions

tcp_link_check_port¶

Optional port for tcp_backend health checks. Will use ha_proxy.tcp_link_port if not set.

tcp_link_health_check_http¶

Optional port for http health check when using the tcp_backend link.

tcp_link_port¶

Port haproxy should listen on when using the tcp_backend link

tcp_routing¶
port_range¶

A range of ports for haproxy to listen on to enable CF TCP Routing. Used only if ‘tcp_router’ link is present.
Default
1024-1123
trusted_domain_cidrs¶

Space separated trusted cidr blocks for internal_only_domains. You may alternatively provide a base64-encoded gzipped HAProxy cidr file, with each CIDR on a new line.
Default
0.0.0.0/32
trusted_stats_cidrs¶

Trusted ip range that can access the stats UI
Default
0.0.0.0/32
v4v6¶

Boolean, disabled by default. Enables binding to all IPv4 and IPv6 interfaces. Only applies if ha_proxy.binding_ip is set to ::.
Default
false
websocket_timeout¶

Timeout (in floating point seconds) used on websocket/tunnel traffic, when both ends of the conversation have become inactive
Default
3600
