Hello

i read in the news (but not here on m.d.s.p) that a few days ago Globalsign 
revoked one of their intermediary roots and then un-revoked it (well, the 
revocation is accidental, but it was still a properly announced revocation, via 
signed CRL and OCSP).

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2016/10/15/globalsign_incident_report/

They rolled back the revocation, but i thought that the BRs explicitly forbid 
that a suspended/revoked certificate be un-suspended/un-revoked.

https://www.globalsign.com/en/customer-revocation-error/

is this revival/un-revocation of an intermediary CA allowed by the BRs?

(p.s. can we call this revived certificate a zombie? :) )





(off-topic note: sigh, was intending not to post here again because news relay 
servers that strip DKIM signatures will generate a lot of DMARC failure reports 
for rejected messages. oh well.)
