#682 Add new profile plug-in preserving subject name with its encoding included in certificate request

Closed: Fixed None Opened 10 years ago by awnuk.

Dogtag CA complies with standards by evaluating issuer and subject names in their canonical forms. Unfortunately most of the cryptographic libraries are validating certificates by processing encoded names instead of names in their canonical forms. This information has been confirmed with our crypto group. Lack of proper name processing by cryptographic libraries during certificate validation resulted in CA cross signing issue reported in ticket #448.

To solve this issue Dogtag CA has two options:

It can demand from cryptographic libraries to provide proper name processing.
It can develop its workaround, which will allow to preserve original name encoding.

Dogtag CA:

has no control over schedules and priorities of cryptographic libraries.
can develop workaround fitting well with in current profile framework
1. by providing new profile for CA cross signing enrollment
2. and by developing new profile plug-ins which will preserve name encoding provided by certificate request.

This ticket is designated to cover work associated with building new profile plug-in preserving subject name with its encoding included in CA cross signing certificate request.
