Should we be creating CA incidents for repeats? I wasn’t sure if this was

CAs directly add audit information to intermediate certificate records 
in the CCADB, so there is no dependency on the Mozilla side for this.


https://wiki.mozilla.org/CA/Email_templates#Outdated_Audit_Statements_for_Intermediate_Certificates
"This email is automatically sent by the CCADB on the first Tuesday of 
each month to CAs who have outdated audit statements in their 
intermediate cert records. An audit statement is determined to be 
outdated when its Audit Period End Date is older than 1 year + 3 months."


Last year I filed https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1549861 
regarding Camerfirma not providing updated audit statements for their 
subCAs.


This year Camerfirma received one notice for the outdated audit 
statement for an intermediate cert, before they fixed it.


I didn't post the "Summary of April 2020 Outdated Audit Statements for 
Intermediate Certs" here in m.d.s.p, because it was empty. But perhaps I 
should post those empty summaries as well.


Anyways, my preference is to file a CA incident bug whenever a CA 
receives more than one of these "Outdated Audit Statements for 
Intermediate Certs" reminders for consecutive months.

I believe that all of the questions/concerns have been resolved, so I 
will open up the survey now, and prepare to send the email to the CAs 
about it.

GRCA: Out-of-date CPS provided in CCADB

2020-05-07 Thread Matt Palmer via dev-security-policy
In trying to validate the problem reporting e-mail address for
https://crt.sh/?id=657220608, I grovelled through the CCADB CSV-o'-Doom
(freshly downloaded for that "new CSV" smell ), and the CPS link
therein refers to http://grca.nat.gov.tw/download/GPKI_CP_eng_v1.7.pdf
which, at the time of writing, is dated "January 31, 2013".

It also has no Section 1.5.2 (at all), and Section 1.4, "Contact Details",
does not have any contact details in it, but merely refers the interested
reader to http://grca.nat.gov.tw/, which... is in (I assume) Chinese, which
I sadly cannot read.

This all makes it rather difficult to report a key compromise, and I'd
really appreciate it if (a) GRCA could fix this up ASAP, and (b) other CAs
could cast an eye over their CPSes to make sure they're not six years
out-of-date.

Filtering on problem reporting e-mail addresses

2020-05-07 Thread Matt Palmer via dev-security-policy
This has happened twice now, with two different CAs, so I'm going to raise
it as a general issue.

I've had one CA reject e-mails because the HELO name wasn't to their liking
(which I was able to fix).  The other, which has just started happening now,
is utterly inscrutible -- "550 Administrative prohibition - envelope
blocked".  Given that the envelope sender and recipient hasn't changed from
the numerous other problem reports I've sent over the past month or so, I'm
really at a loss as to how to proceed.

Questions that arise in my mind:

1. To what extent is it reasonable for a CA to reject properly-formed
e-mails to the CPS-published e-mail address for certificate problem
reporting?

2. What is a reasonable response from a problem reporter to a rejected
problem report e-mail?

3. In what ways are the required timelines for revocation impacted by the
rejection of a properly-formed certificate problem report?
