Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(NSS :: CA Certificates Code, task)

Description

[Kathleen Wilson]

Attachment: TC TrustCenter Universal CA III root cert

This bug requests inclusion in the NSS root certificate store of the following
certificate, owned by TC TrustCenter.

Friendly name: TC TrustCenter Universal CA III

Certificate location: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=411063

SHA1 Fingerprint: 96:56:CD:7B:57:96:98:95:D0:E1:41:46:68:06:FB:B8:C6:11:06:87

Trust flags: Websites, Email, Code Signing

Test URL: https://testserver.universal-iii.trustcenter.de

This CA has been assessed in accordance with the Mozilla project guidelines,
and the certificate approved for inclusion in bug #507360.

The next steps are as follows:

1) A representative of the CA must confirm that all the data in this bug is
correct, and that the correct certificate(s) have been attached. They must also
specify what OS they would like to use to perform the verification below.

2) A Mozilla representative creates a test build of NSS with the new
certificate(s), and attaches nssckbi.dll to this bug. A representative of the
CA must download this, drop it into a copy of Firefox and/or Thunderbird on the
OS in question and confirm (by adding a comment here) that the certificate(s)
have been correctly imported and that websites work correctly.

3) The Mozilla representative checks the certificate(s) into the NSS store, and
marks the bug RESOLVED FIXED.

4) At some time after that, various Mozilla products will move to using a
version of NSS which contains the certificate. This process is mostly under the
control of the release drivers for those products.

Ooops!

"This CA has been assessed in accordance with the Mozilla project guidelines,
and the certificate approved for inclusion in bug #507360."

Should be

"This CA has been assessed in accordance with the Mozilla project guidelines,
and the certificate approved for inclusion in bug #436467."

Rolf, Thanks for confirming that the data in this bug is correct.

Root inclusions are usually grouped and done as a batch when there is
either a large enough set of changes or about every 3 months.

At some point in the next 3 months a test build will be provided and this bug
will be updated to request that you test it. Since you are cc'd on this bug,
you will get notification via email when that happens.

Current test builds (Mozilla experimental) for various platforms can be found
at
http://stage.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/tryserver-builds/[e-mail]-b725b0fd279e/

Please note the builds at above location will be automatically deleted after
two weeks, so please make copies if you need them.

Please test and confirm that your roots have been added correctly, with the
correct trust flags (use certificate manager, find your cert, click "view" to
see the trust flags).

(Please note, if you have asked for enabling EV, that's not yet done, and will be a separate step.)

Rolf, can you please check that all intermediate certificates are installed correctly on your test site?

I think they are missing.

Comment 7

[Kai Engert [:KaiE:]]

I made a new testbuild, now it includes the patch to enable roots for EV.

I've learned that tryserver builds are automatically deleted quickly, after 4 days.
I've mirrored the most important files here:

Here is my request to the CA, TC Trustcenter, according with first comment in
this bug, section (2):

Please download a test build from comment 10.

Please confirm that your root certificate(s) are correctly added to the NSS
root store.

In particular, please make sure that the certificate have the correct trust
flags. You can use Firefox preferences / advanced / encryption / certificates /
edit-trust to look at the trust flags.

Once you have confirmed, we are ready to add your certs to NSS.
