The IESG has received a request from the Public Notary Transparency WG (trans) to consider the following document: - 'Certificate Transparency Version 2.0' <draft-ietf-trans-rfc6962-bis-39.txt> as Experimental RFC
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the [email protected] mailing lists by 2021-06-18. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to [email protected] instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document describes version 2.0 of the Certificate Transparency (CT) protocol for publicly logging the existence of Transport Layer Security (TLS) server certificates as they are issued or observed, in a manner that allows anyone to audit certification authority (CA) activity and notice the issuance of suspect certificates as well as to audit the certificate logs themselves. The intent is that eventually clients would refuse to honor certificates that do not appear in a log, effectively forcing CAs to add all issued certificates to the logs. This document obsoletes RFC 6962. It also specifies a new TLS extension that is used to send various CT log artifacts. Logs are network services that implement the protocol operations for submissions and queries that are defined in this document. [RFC Editor: please update 'RFCXXXX' to refer to this document, once its RFC number is known, through the document.] The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-trans-rfc6962-bis/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. _______________________________________________ Trans mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/trans
