SHA-1 OCSP Signing

Purpose of Ballot


Weaknesses regarding the use of the SHA-1 hash algorithm for signatures have
been known for several years. While there is currently a prohibition on the
use of CA Private Keys to directly sign OCSP responses using SHA-1, Private
Keys corresponding to OCSP delegated responders may still be used to sign
OCSP responses using SHA-1. This ballot establishes a sunset date to
prohibit delegated OCSP signing with the SHA-1 hash algorithm.

 

The following motion has been proposed by Corey Bonnell of DigiCert and
endorsed by Ben Wilson of Mozilla and Bruce Morton of Entrust.


Motion Begins


This ballot modifies the "Baseline Requirements for the Issuance and
Management of Publicly-Trusted Certificates" ("Baseline Requirements"),
based on Version 1.8.0:
MODIFY the Baseline Requirements as specified in the following Redline:
