DigiCert: Undisclosed CAs - Federated Trust CA-1
This case concerns DigiCert CA certificates that were not disclosed in the Common CA Database (CCADB) as expected. DigiCert said it became aware of the issue while reviewing and updating AIA information for DigiCert Federated ID CA-1 on 9/10/2018, and it referenced that Rob Stradling pointed out the issuing certificate was not yet disclosed on 10/9/2018. DigiCert revoked the relevant certificates at the same time, concluding the issuing CAs were never added to production and that the impact of revocation was negligible. DigiCert also stated it was investigating whether a SHA2 version of the certificate exists and would revoke it if discovered. In subsequent updates, DigiCert reported uploading additional intermediate CA certificates to CCADB and provided Censys.io links for the ICAs it had uploaded, noting that the last 14 listed were revoked on 25-October-2018. The bug was marked RESOLVED with resolution FIXED.
