As you may know, X.509 is a low level standard, so what is considered
malformed in one circumstance may be unproblematic in another.

Much more specific requirements are needed in order to say unanimous
pass or fail.

As for incomplete, that suggests to me going beyond a technical
requirement, ie. does the CN actually include all subject's middle
initials?

Malformed could probably go beyond technical as well.

Not a simple task to translate fairlytale requirements (if they are)
into something actually meaningful in the real world. Basically
someone else f-ed up and you have the delightful choice of cleaning
it all up and starting over, or cutting as many corners as possible
to work on what the project is actually about. You have my sympathy.
