Thanks Erwann,
I appreciate your point regarding the cost of a signing operation. I plan
to take action on this. Pointing out RFC 5280 in regards to what status it
will return when it fails to download a fresh CRL helped a lot. I now see
that revoked is not "a" correct response according to the l
Bonjour,
The problem with signing with a default certificate is that the response
certainly won’t be accepted by the client (see RFC6960 section 4.2.2.2, this
responder certificate doesn’t follow criteria 1 and 2, and certainly not
criteria 3), so you’re performing a signature knowing it will b
Thanks for chiming in Erwann. This OCSP service is CRL based. The software
I am using has a "default signing certificate". I also have #X CA specific
signing certificates for each CA in our lab PKI. It chooses to use the
default signing certificate for all unknown issuers (like if someone

Bonsoir,
The OCSP responder can respond « unknown » if it doesn’t know the status of the
requested certificate. « Unknown » can generally not be used when the issuer is
not known, because such a response is signed, and if the responder doesn’t know
about the issuer, it can’t choose its own cert
Hi Walter,
I agree with your addition regarding the fact that it is not saying the
cert is good, it's saying unknown. However, my understanding of the RFC is
that unknown should be returned when the OCSP service does not know about
the certificate issuer. I'm not sure that's the case.
