>From what I've read of the incident (I think it's the one referred
to), Comodo revoked the bogus mozilla.com cert and got their reseller
Certstar (who issued it) to start performing validation.  Security
common sense might suggest that they validate all certs previously
issued by Certstar and check the validation procedures of their other
resellers.  Do you know whether they did so?  The former seems a major
undertaking and commercially delicate.
