From a4c6e57f4f5fa65cbdb8cc1c14ff5ca7c56766c3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Howells Date: Mon, 20 Jul 2015 21:16:32 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] X.509: Change recorded SKID & AKID to not include Subject or Issuer The key identifiers fabricated from an X.509 certificate are currently: (A) Concatenation of serial number and issuer (B) Concatenation of subject and subjectKeyID (SKID) When verifying one X.509 certificate with another, the AKID in the target can be used to match the authoritative certificate. The AKID can specify the match in one or both of two ways: (1) Compare authorityCertSerialNumber and authorityCertIssuer from the AKID to identifier (A) above. (2) Compare keyIdentifier from the AKID plus the issuer from the target certificate to identifier (B) above. When verifying a PKCS#7 message, the only available comparison is between the IssuerAndSerialNumber field and identifier (A) above. However, a subsequent patch adds CMS support. Whilst CMS still supports a match on IssuerAndSerialNumber as for PKCS#7, it also supports an alternative - which is the SubjectKeyIdentifier field. This is used to match to an X.509 certificate on the SKID alone. No subject information is available to be used. To this end change the fabrication of (B) above to be from the X.509 SKID alone. The AKID in keyIdentifier form then only matches on that and does not include the issuer.
