All,

China Financial Certification Authority (CFCA) has filed Bugzilla Bug #1229288 to request that an EV Policy OID be added for their root certificate that is currently included and currently enabled for EV treatment.

As per Bugzilla Bug #926029, this root cert was included in Firefox 38, and given EV treatment in Firefox 40.

Details may be found here

Root Certificate Name: CFCA EV ROOT
O From Issuer Field: China Financial Certification Authority
Trust Bits: Websites
EV Policy OID(s): 2.16.156.112554.3

In their effort to switch from their internal EV OID to the one recommended by the CA/Browser forum, CFCA has requested to add the following new EV Policy OID to the "CFCA EV Root" cert.

New EV Policy OID: 2.23.140.1.1

I view this change as administrative, reasonable, and in the interest of the Mozilla community; and it does not change permissions or trustworthiness.

Therefore, unless anyone raises a concern about this change, I will proceed with filing the bug to make the code change happen.

Kathleen
