subscription-manager currently does not have a way to get credentials (username, password, activation keys, organization ID) in a secure way: the existing command line parameters can be easily spotted when running a process listing while 'subscription-manager register' runs. There is a D-Bus service, which is used by e.g. cockpit and Anaconda to interface with RHSM (at least for registration and common queries). Try to perform the registration using D-Bus, in a way very similar to the work done in convert2rhel [1] (with my help): - try to do a simple signal test to check whether the system bus works; inspired by the login in the dconf module - pass most of the options as registration options; for the few that are not part of the registration, execute 'subscription-manager' manually - add quirks for differently working (or not) registration options for the D-Bus Register*() methods depending on the version of RHEL - 'subscription-manager register' is used only in case the signal test is not working; silent fallback in case of D-Bus errors during the registration is not done on purpose to avoid silent fallback to a less secure registration [1] https://github.com/oamg/convert2rhel/pull/540/ |
