Hello Denison, or anyone else affected,

Accepted adsys into jammy-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/adsys/0.16.3~22.04 in
a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
jammy to verification-done-jammy. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-jammy. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  Adsys 0.16.3 introduces dependency bumps, and updates to the privilege
  policy manager to support the newer Polkit versions (>= 124) and their
  new syntax for defining system admins.

  It also adds fixes and improvements for certificate autoenrollment,
  specifically for multiple domains AD environments (i.e. parent.com and
  child.parent.com). Those fixes involve the refinement of some LDAP
  queries that were targeting the wrong domain and allowing the default
  behavior of getting the templates for a specific certificate authority
  to be overridden through changes in the cepces configuration file.

  We also fixed an issue with the parsing of (very) large policies, so
  we can now support even bigger files.

  Since the behavior updates mentioned only impact policy managers
  locked under a Pro subscription, this should not impact interim
  releases.

  [Test Plan]

  - For interim releases:
      Requirements:
        - Windows Server VM with Active Directory services (AD DS) configured;

      1) Configure DCONF policies in the AD controller;
      2) Configure a (very) large GPO (around 400kb);
      3) Enroll the Ubuntu machine on the domain;
      4) Install adsys 0.16.3;
      5) Ensure that a user from the enrolled domain can authenticate and that 
         adsys was able to parse and apply the policies correctly.

  - For LTS releases:
      Requirements:
        - Multiple domains environment (i.e. root.com and child.root.com)
        - Windows Server VM with Active Directory services (AD DS), on root.com.
        - Windows Server VM with Active Directory services (AD DS), Active
          Directory Certificate Services (AD CS) and a CEPCES server configured,
          on child.root.com.

      1) Configure privilege policies in the child AD controller;
      2) Enable the certificate autoenrollment policy in the child AD 
controller;
      3) Configure a (very) large GPO (around 400kb);
      4) Enroll the Ubuntu machine on the child domain;
      5) Install adsys 0.16.3;
      6) Ensure that adsys was able to parse all the relevant policies;
      7) Ensure that a user from the enrolled domain can authenticate and that 
the
         privilege policy was applied correctly;
      8) Ensure that the machine is enrolled to the correct certificate 
authority;

  [Where problems could occur]

  Since all of adsys external dependencies are vendored, there is no
  risk of incompatibility with other packages in the Ubuntu release.
  Unless an internal bug within one of them affects adsys (this would
  likely have been spotted in CI), bumping their version should not
  cause issues.

  If adsys fails to parse a large policy file, it won't be applied. If
  the policy was enforced on the domain controller, authentication will
  be denied. This is already the case in the current archive version, so
  there's no risk of regression here.

  The changes focused at the Privilege and Certificate managers are
  locked under a Pro subscription, so they have no impact on interim
  releases.

  As for LTS releases, there are two fail points:

  If adsys fails to apply the privilege escalation policy and the policy
  is enforced by the AD controller, then authentication will be
  prevented for users that require this GPO. If the policy is not
  enforced, then authentication will proceed as normal and polkit will
  use the system default values for system administrators.

  If adsys fails to fetch the certificate authorities or enroll the
  machine to a certificate template, authentication will still be
  allowed but the machine won't have access to the certificate benefits.
