Subject: [Servercert-wg] Voting Period Begins - Ballot SC-073: Compromised and 
Weak Keys
Purpose of Ballot SC-073
This ballot proposes updates to the Baseline Requirements for the Issuance and 
Management of Publicly-Trusted TLS Server Certificates related to weak and 
compromised private keys. These changes lie primarily in Section 6.1.1.3:
6.1.1.3(4) clarifies that, for the purpose of this requirement, CAs shall be 
made aware of compromised keys using their existing notification mechanism(s).
6.1.1.3(5) improves guidance for CAs around the detection of weak keys. Should 
this ballot pass, these changes become effective on November 15, 2024.
Notes:
This ballot builds on the extensive work done by SSL.com in creating ballot 
SC-59v2 Weak Key Guidance. SSL.com’s contributions are appreciated.
Thanks to Rob Stradling of Sectigo for the generation and publication of the 
set of Debian weak keys referenced in this ballot.
The Debian weak keys requirements have been discussed extensively, including in 
the following threads:
