RFC 3279: ECDSA and ECDH keyUsage Text
I'm a little confused by the keyUsage paragraphs (3.2.5) in RFC 3279.
It seems like the current text on applies to CAs and CRL issuers. I
believe the text needs to be modified as follows to address end entities:
replace (before the list of digitalSignature, nonRepudiation, and
keyAgreement) "If the keyUsage extension is present in a CA or CRL
issuer certificate" with "If the keyUsage extension is present in an end
entity certificate."
and
replace (before the list of digitalSignature, nonRepudiation,
keyAgreement, keyCertSign, and cRLSign) "If the keyUsage extension is
present in a CA certificate" with "If the keyUsage extension is present
in a CA or CRL issuer certificate."
I think this was just a cut and paste error. Sorry for the spam if
somebody else already caught this.
