We have tag 23 for representing hexadecimal strings as byte strings (which I think this is about) [1]. [1]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8949#name-expected-later-encoding-for However, this is for uppercase strings. About half of the hex strings I’m seeing are lowercase. I’m assuming here that makes a difference in the X.509 signature? I propose that we add a (1+1) tag for those two (e.g. 108 for ‘l’ as in lowercase). (No help with mixed case, but I haven’t seen those.)
