As a permitted CA, I don't need to do anything with the iodef record. That's not correct. For example, imagine the issue indicates Symantec, but it requests EV only (via a Symantec-defined issuer-parameter), and you receive a request a DV. What do you do then? Symantec has not defined any additional parameters, so this question is moot (for me). Similarly, if the Forum introduces issuer-parameters regarding the use of 3.2.2.4 validity methods, what then? The Forum has not defined any parameters yet, so this question is moot. For this simple case where there are no additional parameters and I find my identifier in an issue or issuewild record, I need not even view an iodef record. How do others interpret it? Your intent is probably to catch the error and alert the domain owner, so that they can fix it in case a non-authorized CA tries to issue a cert for the domain. While I can see the advantage of that, I'm not sure that this action was intended by the RFC or Gerv's ballot. How do others interpret it? -Rick From: Ryan Sleevi [mailto:[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>] Sent: Friday, March 17, 2017 10:26 AM To: Rick Andrews <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Cc: CA/Browser Forum Public Discussion List <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>; Gervase Markham <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Subject: Re: [cabfpub] Results on Ballot 187 - Make CAA Checking Mandatory Fail to issue.

To me, the word "process" means to take some kind of action, as we must do with issue and issuewild tags. From what others have said, if the iodef record isn't marked critical, I can ignore it, and if it is marked critical, I can ignore it as long as I recognize it as an iodef record. I wouldn't call that "processing" the record. That's not quite correct. If it's marked critical, you must still understand how to parse the syntax, and ensure it is something you actively understand, even if you do not report.
