Asking about RootCA program for Government of Korea's RootCA
This case is a request related to the inclusion of the Government of Korea’s Root Certification Authority (RootCA) in Mozilla’s trust environment. The reporter, Kim Sang Jun of the Korean local information Research& Development Institute, described the Government Certification Management Authority (gpki.go.kr) operated under the Ministry of Security and Public Administration (MOSPA) and stated that MOSPA designates multiple CAs and issues/manages government digital signature certificates. The reporter said that when using Firefox, the SSL certificate issued in this environment “can not be trusted,” and asked Mozilla to cooperate for registration of the RootCA certificate. The reporter referenced the Government of Korea’s RootCA URL (http://gcert.gpki.go.kr/...) and provided sample sites (https://www.gtsa.go.kr and https://www.gotp.go.kr). The bug was marked as a duplicate of bug 867002, and the current resolution is DUPLICATE.
