Dear All!

We have used the last week to address all the issues:

* all the certificates with problems (CN, validty) have been replaced with our 
customers

* the field for the business Category has been changed to only accept the valid 
strings

* to avoid problems with replacmenet certificates that had the same serial 
number in the subject, we have implemented a longer serial number in the 
dedicated field, that fulfills the 20 Bits of Entropy requirement and is 
completely random

To prevent future problems with values in the certficate fields, we have 
implemented another layer of cross checks after the issuing of the certificate. 
Until now, the checks performed by the agent have been verified by a second 
agent, who wasn't involved in the process until then. We will now perform 
another check after each certificate hast been issued and before it is sent to 
the customer. This check includes: used domains and values in cn / Subject 
Alternativ Name, key length, business category, general integrity of als values 
in the Subject, validity period and lenght of the serial number. We hope to 
avoid issues as found in this thread and I would like to thank everybody for 
pointing them out.

Regards,
Christoph Klein
