The der::OptionalVersion() function succesfully parses a Version field with a version number that is out of range. The only compatible version numbers that we support are v1 to v3. I think der::OptionalVersion() should check the version number retrieved and then fail fast?

Technically a v4 or v5 certificate could be valid. In fact, I heard ITU or somebody is already working on x509 v5. So, the only out of range values are negative, which are checked for. There IS a bug though: OptionalVersion should NOT except an explicit value of v1 (0x00) because that is the default value.
Summary: Test failure for insanity::pkixder OptionalVersionInvalid → wrong test results for OptionalVersionInvalid and OptionalVersionV1 tests in pkixder_tests.cpp
I accidentally a patch for this.
