PKI — AuthorityProviderInfo - supplementary info desirable

Open Closed All
  • Key: PKI-22
  • Legacy Issue Number: 4481
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Fujitsu ( Stephen McConnell [X] (Inactive))
  • Summary:

    The AuthorityProviderInfo contains a set of information about the a
    provider.
    It is desirable that this be extended to include the public key of
    the provider and URLs to provider specific information.

    valuetype AuthorityProviderInfo

    { public string standardVersion; public string standardDescription; public string productVersion; public string productDescription; public string productVendor; public PKI::CertificateInfoList supportedCertificates; public PKI::CRLInfoList supportedCRLs; public PKI::CertificateRequestInfoList supportedCertRequestTypes; public PKI::CertificateRevocationInfoList supportedCertRevocationTypes; public PKI::KeyRecoveryInfoList supportedKeyRecoveryTypes; // proposed addition public PKI::Certificate publicKey; public string providerHomeURL; public string providerPublicKeyURL; }

    ;

    These additions enable a consistent mechanism to (a) access a CA or RA
    public
    key, (b) provide a hint to an out-of-band mechanisms through which public
    key
    verification can be enacted, and (c) provide access to provider information
    such as published certification policy, etc.

    If there are not objections - I'll raise this as an FTF issue.
