I personally could go either way with this, it’s up to the chairs what they 
want to do.

 

1.      It’s clear that Bruce had endorsers, the email just had an error and 
failed to disclose them properly.  The Bylaws state that a ballot requires two 
endorsers to proceed, but DOES NOT have a requirement that they be stated in 
the ballot email.  That’s just a tradition to clearly document the endorsers.  
This could be considered a “repairable” error, since it’s clear what was 
intended and I don’t think it materially or adversely affected the voting 
process.
2.      In order to avoid all doubt and make sure the endorsers are documented 
correctly, the ballot could be re-run.

 

I don’t have a strong preference.

Apologies for not spotting this sooner. Can you please confirm if this is the

If this is the only email that was sent to start the discussion period, I'm 
afraid it is not compliant with the Bylaws because when the official discussion 
period started, the ballot did not include two endorsers. Instead, it seems 
that it went straight to voting, per

another pair of eyes to confirm this.

Subject: [Cscwg-public] Voting Period begins - Ballot CSC-22: High Risk 
Requirements Update

 

Purpose of the Ballot

This ballot updates the “Baseline Requirements for the Issuance and Management 
of Publicly‐Trusted Code Signing Certificates“ version 3.4 in order to clarify 
language regarding Signing Service and signing requests. The main goals of this 
ballot are to:

1.      Remove references to High Risk Certificate Request, since the CSBRs do 
not provide any actions for a high risk application.
2.      Remove references to High Risk Region of Concern, since the CSBR 
appendix has never been populated.
3.      Remove rules for a Takeover Attack to require the Subscriber to 
generate keys in a crypto device, since crypto device key generation is now a 
baseline requirement for all code signing certificates.
4.      Remove option to transfer private key which has been generated in 
software.
5.      Cleanup to remove Subscriber key generation option which expired 
effective 1 June 2023.
6.      Cleanup to remove “any other method” to verify the Subscriber key was 
generated in a crypto device, since this option expired 1 June 2023.

The following motion has been proposed by Bruce Morton of Entrust and endorsed 
by Tim Hollebeek of DigiCert and Ian McMillan of Microsoft.
