Hi,

The version field is defined as:
version         [0]  EXPLICIT Version DEFAULT v1

The Version type is defined as:
Version  ::=  INTEGER  {  v1(0), v2(1), v3(2)  }

DEFAULT implies OPTIONAL, and if this field is absent, then it has to
be considered a version 1 certificate.

I saved your certificate (a VeriSign one, it seems) to a file, and
checked its signature:
  openssl verify -CAfile rootv1.pem rootv1.pem
which replied "Ok".
Do you have a better example of a "bad" certificate?
