595013 - Enable Code Signing Trust Bit for DigiCert's three Roots in NSS

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(NSS :: CA Certificates Code, task)

Description

[Kathleen Wilson]

This bug requests that the code signing trust bit be enabled by default in the NSS root certificate store for the following three certificates, owned by DigiCert.

Friendly name: DigiCert Assured ID Root CA
SHA1 Fingerprint: 05:63:B8:63:0D:62:D7:5A:BB:C8:AB:1E:4B:DF:B5:A8:99:B2:4D:43
Trust flags: Websites, Email, Code Signing
Test URL: https://catest.digicert-assured-id-ca-1.digicert.com/

Friendly name: DigiCert Global Root CA
SHA1 Fingerprint: A8:98:5D:3A:65:E5:E5:C4:B2:D7:D6:6D:40:C6:DD:2F:B1:9C:54:36
Trust flags: Websites, Email, Code Signing
Test URL: https://catest.digicert-global-ca-1.digicert.com/

Friendly name: DigiCert High Assurance EV Root CA
SHA1 Fingerprint: 5F:B7:EE:06:33:E2:59:DB:AD:OC:4C:9A:E6:D3:8F:1A:61:C7:DC:25
Trust flags: Websites, Email, Code Signing

This CA has been assessed in accordance with the Mozilla project guidelines,
and the change has been approved in bug #515425.

The next steps are as follows:

1) A representative of the CA must confirm that all the data in this bug is
correct. 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 changes, 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 certificates have been correctly updated.

3) The Mozilla representative checks the changes 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 changes. This process is mostly under the control of the release drivers for those products.

Jeremy, Please see step #1 above.

We updated our test URLs:

For CAs:

https://ev-root.digicert.com/info
https://global-root.digicert.com/info
https://assured-id-root.digicert.com/info

For End users:

https://ev-root.digicert.com
https://global-root.digicert.com
https://assured-id-root.digicert.com

We'd like to use Windows 7 as the test OS.

Jeremy, Thanks for confirming that the data in this bug is correct, and for providing the updated test URLs.

Root inclusions/updates 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.)

I have confirmed that this patch changes just the code signing trust bit on 
3 certs, and that those 3 certs have the SHA1 fingerprints given in this bug.
