feat: add standalone quorum list server deploy - #747
Conversation
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughTerraform now provisions optional standalone quorum list server hosts and public access resources. Generated inventory includes the hosts, and Ansible deploys and health-checks the Docker service. Documentation describes configuration and verification. Terraform provider lock entries are updated. ChangesQuorum list server deployment
Terraform provider lock updates
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to This PR adds a public quorum service but sends its DashCore RPC credentials over cleartext HTTP and has a valid bind-host configuration that can fail deployment health checks; the API authorization model is also not explicitly established. Merge should wait for encrypted backend transport and correction or explicit acceptance of these risks. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Inline comments:
In `@ansible/deploy.yml`:
- Around line 377-385: Update the “Set up quorum list servers” play for hosts
quorum_list_servers to set gather_facts to false, use strategy free, and add the
dashmate_deploy tag alongside the existing tags.
In `@ansible/roles/quorum_list_server/defaults/main.yml`:
- Around line 13-14: Guard the quorum_list_server_rpc_host lookup for an empty
seed_nodes group before indexing its first element, or validate that at least
one seed host exists before rendering the RPC settings. Preserve the existing
host and private_ip resolution when seed_nodes is non-empty, and ensure the
invalid zero-seed configuration reaches a clear validation failure instead of
failing during lookup.
- Around line 14-16: Update quorum_list_server_rpc_url to use HTTPS instead of
HTTP while preserving the existing host and port interpolation; keep the RPC
credentials and endpoint targeting unchanged.
Apply the same fix in `@docs/quorum-list-server.md` around lines 49 - 57: The
documentation repeats the same insecure RPC transport configuration.
In `@ansible/roles/quorum_list_server/tasks/main.yml`:
- Around line 42-50: Update the “Wait for quorum-list-server health endpoint”
URI to probe the configured quorum_list_server_host instead of always using
127.0.0.1, while mapping 0.0.0.0 to a reachable local probe address. Preserve
the existing port, health path, status check, retries, and delay.
In `@docs/quorum-list-server.md`:
- Around line 35-39: Update every documented hostname in the quorum deployment
guide, including the certificate, Route53 CNAME, and verification examples, to
use the configured main_domain value in the quorums.<network>.<main_domain>
pattern. Retain networks.dash.org only when clearly labeled as the explicit
default-domain example, and ensure the devnet example follows the same
substitution.
In `@terraform/aws/.terraform.lock.hcl`:
- Around line 5-6: Validate the existing Terraform workspace with the locked
hashicorp/aws provider before merging. If terraform plan fails decoding the
aws_iam_role state, revert the provider from version 5.100.0 or select a version
with a confirmed fix, then regenerate the lock entry while preserving the ~>
5.21 constraint.
In `@terraform/aws/main.tf`:
- Around line 347-352: Remove the plaintext HTTP listener block associated with
the quorum list server, including its port-80 forwarding configuration. Ensure
API traffic is not publicly forwarded over HTTP; retain only an HTTPS listener
or implement an HTTP-to-HTTPS redirect if that path is required.
In `@terraform/aws/variables.tf`:
- Around line 49-52: Pass var.quorum_list_server_port through the
Terraform-generated Ansible inventory or role variables so the
quorum_list_server role binds to the same port configured for the ELB and
security group, rather than relying on its 8080 default. Update the inventory
generation path and preserve the existing variable value for all deployments.

🔒 Security & Privacy | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift
Sensitive Data Exposure (CWE-319): Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information
Reachability: Internal · Exploitability: Difficult
Do not send Dash Core RPC credentials over cleartext HTTP.
quorum_list_server_rpc_url uses http://, while ansible/roles/quorum_list_server/templates/config.toml.j2:9-11 sends quorum_list_server_rpc_user and quorum_list_server_rpc_password through that connection. Private addressing and security-group restrictions limit reachability, but they do not provide transport confidentiality. An attacker who observes or compromises a VPC path can recover and reuse these credentials. Use authenticated encrypted transport for this hop, or avoid sending credentials over cleartext HTTP.
Verify that every deployed hop carrying these credentials is authenticated and encrypted. The public ELB HTTPS listener does not protect this separate seed RPC connection.

Summary
quorums.<network>.<main_domain>Route53 recordmainnet,testnet,devnet, orregtest) independently of the Terraform workspace nameGeneric devnet model
Terraform workspaces retain their specific
devnet-<name>identity for resources and hostnames. The quorum-list-server receives onlydevnet, which selects the standard Platform devnet parameters. There are no named-devnet branches or aliases in the implementation.Deployment validation
The infrastructure path was previously validated on
devnet-moutaiusing one ARM64 quorum-list-server host:terraform validateInService/healthreturned 200llmq_devnet_platform(type107)The rollout used a targeted Terraform plan because the full workspace plan contained unrelated pre-existing security-group drift; that drift was not applied. A focused follow-up plan contained exactly 0 creates, 1 in-place ELB update (remove listener 80), and 0 destroys.
The subsequent generic naming cleanup was validated with focused diff/static checks only; no deployment or end-to-end test was run for that cleanup.
Dependency / merge order
The currently published
dashpay/quorum-list-server:latestimage does not yet support Platform devnets. Merge and release dashpay/quorum-list-server#12 first, then pin this PR to the released multi-architecture image before merge. The current Moutai validation host uses a locally built ARM64 image from the pre-release source patch.Summary by CodeRabbit
