Hello,

anyone with good knowledge of ASN.1 out there? The point is, that in my
opinion the current encoding of TokenInfo.lastUpdate is wrong. It is of
type CHOICE and therefore EXPLICIT tagging has to be used. CHOICE is
always tagged EXPLICIT. Correct?

DEFINITIONS IMPLICIT TAGS ::=

TokenInfo ::= SEQUENCE {
        ...
        lastUpdate      [5] LastUpdate OPTIONAL
        ...
}

LastUpdate ::= CHOICE {
        generalizedTime         GeneralizedTime
        ...
}

First example is the kind of TokenInfo produced by OpenSC since r2466
[1]. Second one uses EXPLICIT tagging instead. See offset 2E and
onwards:

It would be nice, if someone could confirm or reject that issue.
