Reported by: Corey Bonnell <corey.bonnell@digicert.com>

Section: 6

Original Text
-------------
Certificate  ::=  SEQUENCE  {
           tbsCertificate       TBSCertificate,
           signatureAlgorithm   AlgorithmIdentifier,
           signatureValue       BIT STRING  }

...


For the Certificate structure, the signature value is
   wrapped in the "signatureValue" BIT STRING field.

Corrected Text
--------------
Certificate  ::=  SEQUENCE  {
           tbsCertificate       TBSCertificate,
           signatureAlgorithm   AlgorithmIdentifier,
           signature            BIT STRING  }

...

For the Certificate structure, the signature value is
   wrapped in the "signature" BIT STRING field.

Notes
-----
There is no field with the name "signatureValue" in the Certificate SEQUENCE. It is instead named "signature" according to the ASN.1 module in RFC 5280 A.1 as well as the ASN.1 module in section 14 of RFC 5912.
