118855 - rfc2632 requires that s/mime libraries parse a CRL included in a CMS message.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 36454

(MailNews Core :: Security: S/MIME, enhancement, P4)

Description

[Stephane Saux]

This bug is for tracking purposes.  I doubt that we do that today, and I don't
know of any client that actually sends CRLs along with a signed email, but we
may want to remember it.

[Kai Engert (:KaiE:)]

Mail User Agents may not usually include CRLs on sending, however, this is a
very helpful mechanism to push CRLs to users.

A deployment might decided to reguarly or on demand send out S/Mime messages to
all employees to get them in sync with an updated CRL.

A deployment could install a server script that automatically sends out such an
email message.

Mass reassign ssaux bugs to nobody

Comment 3

[Nelson Bolyard (seldom reads bugmail)]

Mass change "Future" target milestone to "--" on bugs that now are assigned to
nobody.  Those targets reflected the prioritization of past PSM management.
Many of these should be marked invalid or wontfix, I think.
