IdenTrust: Failure to disclose Unconstrained intermediate within 7 days
IdenTrust reported that it failed to disclose an Intermediate CA certificate to CCADB within one week of certificate creation, as required by Section 5.3.2 of the Mozilla Policy. The issue was identified after Mozilla prompted IdenTrust, and IdenTrust stated that it realized it had not disclosed an Intermediate CA certificate issued on 2/28/19 within the required timeframe. IdenTrust explained that its disclosure procedures were triggered by actual issuance of end-entity certificates rather than also within 7 days of intermediate certificate generation. IdenTrust also described that an attempted replacement disclosure on 3/27/19 caused de-listing of the original intermediate certificate, which led it to recognize that both intermediate certificates needed to be listed as separate CCADB records. As remediation, IdenTrust stated it had disclosed to CCADB all intermediate certificates within scope of Mozilla Policy section 1.1 and said it would include CCADB disclosure in upfront planning with a target disclosure date set prior to intermediate generation, enforced by procedural controls. The bug was marked RESOLVED with resolution FIXED, and a later comment indicated remediation was complete.
