Dimitris,
I’ve got a question as to the intent of the following line from
section 8.7:
“Effective 2025-03-15, the CA SHOULD use a Linting process to verify
the technical accuracy of Certificates within the selected sample set.”
Is the intent here that the CA should re-lint the selected sample set,
even if they were originally linted during the issuance process (as
pre-issuance, post-issuance, or both)?
Yes, as this may include a new version of the Linting software. Please
let me know you have any suggested language to make this a bit more clear.
Thanks,
Dimitris.
Regards,
Martijn

SC-75 v2 Pre-sign linting
Summary
There have been numerous compliance incidents publicly disclosed by
CAs in which they failed to comply with the technical requirements
described in standards associated with the issuance and management of
publicly-trusted TLS Certificates. However, the industry has developed
open-source tools, linters, that are free to use and can help CAs
avoid certificate misissuance. Using such linters before issuing a
precertificate from a Publicly-Trusted CA (pre-issuance linting) can
prevent the mis-issuance in a wide variety of cases.
The following motion has been proposed by Dimitris Zacharopoulos of
HARICA and endorsed by Corey Bonnell of Digicert and Ben Wilson of
Mozilla.
