Error checking signature: openpgp: key expired

[eric-viera]

What it says in the title happens when running terraform init, terraform tries to install version 1.21.0 and fails

[bceskavich]

I am seeing this as well on version 1.16.0.

[tacchino]

Saw this as well on latest Terraform release. Not a problem when I went back to 1.5.7

[beaugunderson]

also seeing this today on latest terraform; going to pin our hashicorp/setup-terraform@v2 workflow with this and report back:

  with:
    terraform_version: 1.5.7

[beaugunderson]

that worked 👍

[lleger]

Worked for me too.

It appears that the issue is coming from the fact terraform 1.5.x wasn't checking whether or not the PGP public key is expired (the issue was probably fixed here: https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/commit/1fe57d457d505b4220cafdfd769b0061cbbf6e53).

We can see the latest release of this provider has the PGP key expired by inspecting the key:

$ curl https://registry.terraform.io/v1/providers/cyrilgdn/postgresql/1.21.0/download/linux/amd64 | jq -r '.signing_keys.gpg_public_keys[0].ascii_armor' | gpg --show-keys -

Pinning our Terraform version to <= 1.5.7 worked for me as well.

Seeing this issue in 1.15

Workaround use terraform 1.5.7

Its a bug in TF not in this provider, issue can be closed.

I'm not sure I agree in the statement above. The key used to sign the releases of this provider is outdated and should be updated. So please do not close this issue.

The providers need to be updated with valid keys. The MySQL provider also uses expired keys, and I won't be surprised if all others (such as RabbitMQ) suffer from the same security issue.

Experiencing this error in Terraform 1.6.0

[enricojonas]

Same here - key needs to be updated...

[nikolay]

It is sad that for nearly a week, no one can get hold of @cyrilgdn and make him fix a bunch of major providers. I feel light forking and signing the forked provider with valid keys, as I personally don't like having to downgrade.

I couldn't find an email or some contact of sorts for the maintainer to ping him.

[denisraison]

Version 1.6.1 is out and should have reverted back to ignoring the expired keys. https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/releases/tag/v1.6.1

I've just installed and tested and it's working again :)

I think it would still be a good idea to update the provider with a valid key tho.

[cyrilgdn]

We'll update the key on the next release.
