openssl-encrypt has no owner verification on key revocation — any client can revoke any key

Summary

The revoke_key method in openssl_encrypt_server/modules/keyserver/service.py at lines 195-270 accepts a client_id parameter but never verifies that the requesting client is the same as key.owner_client_id.

Impact

Any authenticated client can revoke any other client's key, as long as they provide a valid revocation signature. While the signature requirement mitigates this somewhat (you need the private key to sign), the lack of ownership check is a defense-in-depth gap.

Recommended Fix

• Add an ownership check: verify client_id == key.owner_client_id before allowing revocation
• Return 403 Forbidden if the requesting client does not own the key

Fix

Fixed in commit 05e45f3 on branch releases/1.4.x — added documentation that ML-DSA signature verification IS the cryptographic ownership check; added info-level logging on successful verification.
