I have created a client certificate with the openssl ca command and noticed that a SSL code which I have broke when it parsed the cert data. The reason was that it expected a PrintableString tag 0x13 instead of the T61String (Teletex) tag 0x14 which openssl apparently inserted. The whole field tag was the subject common name 0x55 0x04 0x03 0x14 (!!) 0x(asciiLen) (ASCII data) Any clues why only this field had a 0x14 descriptor, while all others had the expected 0x13? Or is this a bug in openssl? Reference: ITU-T X.690 ISO/IEC 8824-1 : 1998 pp. 43 "Definition of restricted character string types".
