Summary

Fixes Fernet256 class to be compatible with cryptography>=50.0.0 and updates dependency constraints to support cryptography 49.x and later.

Problem

Cryptography 50.0.0 added a self._aes attribute to the Fernet class constructor. Since Fernet256 overrides __init__() without calling super().__init__(), it doesn't get this attribute.

This causes 1489 test failures in the eda-server test suite when using cryptography>=50.0.0:

AttributeError: 'Fernet256' object has no attribute '_aes'

The error occurs in any code path that uses Fernet256 for encryption/decryption (credentials, secrets, etc.).

Additionally, eda-server's dependency constraint cryptography>=46.0.7,<47 conflicts with django-ansible-base's requirement of cryptography>=49.0.0, preventing the use of supported cryptography versions.

Solution

This PR:

  • Imports algorithms from cryptography.hazmat.primitives.ciphers
  • Sets self._aes = algorithms.AES(self._encryption_key) in Fernet256.__init__()
  • Updates cryptography dependency to >=49.0.0 (from >=46.0.7,<47)
  • Updates pyopenssl dependency to >=26.4.0 (from >=26.0.0) for cryptography 49.x compatibility

Backward Compatibility

✅ This fix is backward compatible with cryptography < 50.0.0 because:

  • The _aes attribute wasn't used by Fernet's methods in older versions
  • Setting it doesn't break any existing functionality
  • No changes to the public API
  • Dependency updates align with django-ansible-base requirements (transitive dependency)

Testing

This fix resolves the 1489 test failures when running eda-server tests with cryptography==50.0.1.

…bility

Cryptography 50.0.0 requires Fernet subclasses to have a self._aes attribute.
This change adds the required attribute to maintain compatibility.

Same fix as applied in AWX: ansible/awx#16654

Walkthrough

Fernet256 now imports the cipher algorithms module and stores an algorithms.AES instance built from its parsed encryption key.

Changes

Fernet256 AES initialization

Layer / File(s) Summary
Initialize the AES cipher

The module imports algorithms. Fernet256.__init__ creates an algorithms.AES instance from the 32-byte encryption key.

Update cryptography to >=49.0.0 and pyOpenSSL to >=26.4.0 to align
with django-ansible-base requirements and ensure compatibility with
cryptography 49.x and later (including 50.x).

This resolves the dependency conflict where eda-server required
cryptography <47 while django-ansible-base requires >=49.0.0.
