-------------------------------------- You may review the report below and at: https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid5729 -------------------------------------- Status: Verified Type: Technical Reported by: Rob Stradling <[email protected]> Date Reported: 2019-05-22 Verified by: Roman Danyliw.com (IESG) Section: 7.5.1 Original Text ------------- The client indicates to the server that it is ready for the challenge validation by sending an empty JSON body ("{}") carried in a POST request to the challenge URL (not the authorization URL). Corrected Text -------------- The client indicates to the server that it is ready for the challenge validation by sending a POST request to the challenge URL (not the authorization URL), where the body of the POST request is a JWS object whose JSON payload is a response object (see Section 8). For all challenge types defined in this document, the response object is the empty JSON object ("{}"). Notes ----- It's clear from other text in section 7.5.1 that the "empty JSON body" is interpreted by the ACME server as a "response object". (The first function of this erratum is to clarify this point). Section 8 says that "The definition of a challenge type includes...Contents of response objects", and section 7.5.1 notes that "the challenges in this document do not define any response fields, but future specifications might define them". (The second function of this erratum is to permit clients to send response objects that contain response fields). -------------------------------------- RFC8555 (draft-ietf-acme-acme-18) -------------------------------------- Title : Automatic Certificate Management Environment (ACME) Publication Date : March 2019 Author(s) : R.
