I interpreted it as: A rquester sends an unsigned request. The OCSP
responder does not want to act on this request, since it is unsigned.
Therefore it answers with sigRequired, advising the requester to
re-issue the request but this time signed.
An unauthorized request sounds sensible to me. It can also be used if
the responder bases its decision not to serve the request on other data
(i.e. the request is unsigned).
