This document defines a set of new Certificate Signing Request
attributes for use with the Enrollment over Secure Transport (EST)
protocol.  These attributes provide disambiguation of the existing
overloaded uses for the challengePassword attribute defined in "PKCS
#9: Selected Object Classes and Attribute Types Version 2.0" (RFC
2985).  Uses include the original certificate revocation password,
common authentication password uses, and EST-defined linking of
transport security identity.

This is now a Proposed Standard.

STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the 
standardization state and status of this protocol.  Distribution of this 
memo is unlimited.
