Just to be clear, the relationship should more like... AS issues public key to clients, or client sends public key to AS. The authorities job is NOT to give the client the public key, but to sign the public key for authenticity. It's bad practice to accept the full cert (pub key+signature) from an authority. If an authority is creating your public key, they are also creating your private key.... bad.

I suggest a separate key/signature for each service. -- Jim Manico @Manicode Secure Coding Education +1 (808) 652-3805 > On Nov 3, 2016, at 8:41 AM, Justin Richer <[email protected]> wrote: > > I agree that the client_id is unlikely to be found inside the certificate > itself.
