Ambarish, >Steve, > This is the same argument as a CA issuing a cert to a >subordinate, who issues incorrect certificates with it - e.g. >issues a certificate for the domain www.amazon.com to say BN. > >Either a CA controls/audits subordinate CAs, or has enough >reason to trust them, or the value of that hierarchy is >pretty useless. > >I don't think logos in certificates affect this either way. No, the argument is not the same. We have the nameConstraints extension as a technical means of preventing a CA and subordinate CAs from issuing certs with names outside of a well defined range. We do not have a means to enforce similar controls re logos. That's the whole point of my concern. Steve
