Request to add Digicert Sdn. Bhd. CA root certificates
The case is about a request to include CA certificates for Digicert Sdn. Bhd. in Mozilla products. The initial request (from Frank Hecker) was to add three root CA certificates—Digicert Class 1 Root CA, Digicert Class 2 Root CA, and PREMIERCA Root CA—and also mentioned intermediate CA certificates, though the discussion focused on the root certificates. Mozilla noted that the CA’s audit status was listed as unknown and asked for a contact email at Digicert Sdn. Bhd. The CA contact email was provided. Mozilla then stated that it had formalised a CA Certificate policy and that, because the request was very old, the original bug was closed and the CA would need to file a new bug report with the information required by the policy. The bug is resolved as WONTFIX.
