Re: High traffic on this list, and Mozilla root program involvement

All,

While I understand the desire to normally have one Bugzilla Bug per root cause 
per CA, I do not have the bandwidth to do this. 

So, I am going to create one bug per CA that I find in the recent m.d.s.policy 
posts, and list all of the problems pertaining to that CA in their bug.

Thanks to all of you for all of your efforts towards cleaning up the CA 
ecosystem. It has and will take a lot of work, but I greatly appreciate the 
forward momentum.

For those of you awaiting response from me to your emails, please be patient as 
I am going to work on this for a while. (my inbox is a mess, so if there is 
anything urgent please put URGENT at the beginning of the email subject)

Cheers,
Kathleen

That is a good point. Thank you for the suggestion.

I would like one bug per root cause, ideally, but as bugs can be more
easily duplicated against each other than split, err on the side of one
bug per issue if the root causes have not been determined with
sufficient clarity yet.

If CAs wish to file bugs about their own issues, they should do so here:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=NSS=CA%20Certificate%20Mis-Issuance

(We use the term "mis-issuance" broadly here.) Please include in the
initial comment at least a full copy of the original report from this
group, although you may elide details of certificates from other CAs.

I was thinking you should just have the Cas add them all for you.  Makes it
easier on you and demonstrates they are tracking and remediating these
issues.  If I were going to create a bug for these in Mozilla would you
prefer to see one bug per issue on one bug per CA. For example, should there
be a bug for all DigiCert issues or should there be one that describes too
long of serial number and another that says the field contains meta-data?

I'm not sure I follow. Do I want what added?

I will be filing any additional appropriate bugs when I get around to
triaging all the messages in this forum.

Subject: High traffic on this list, and Mozilla root program involvement

Hi everyone,

Wow, traffic on this group has exploded :-) Thank you to everyone who has
been bringing incidents to our attention.

Clearly, many of these items need official responses and action from
representatives of the Mozilla root program. I have been on holiday quite a
lot recently, and that includes this week, and any time I have had has been
fighting fires relating to my other responsibilities and requirements placed
on me. But please rest assured, all this has not been forgotten.

In the mean time, I would hope CAs would be picking up incidents relating to
themselves, doing investigations and publishing best-practice-style incident
reports here once those investigations were concluded. I probably need to
write a wiki page on this, but in brief best practice involves much more
than "we revoked the certificates concerned", it needs to say "this is how
this happened", and "this is what we've done/are doing to make sure it won't
happen again".
