Enhanced Security Services Update: Adding CertID Algorithm Agility

Overview

RFC 5035, “Enhanced Security Services Update: Adding CertID Algorithm Agility”, is a Proposed Standard document published in August 2007 by J. Schaad. It updates RFC 2634. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.

Abstract

In the original Enhanced Security Services for S/MIME document (RFC 2634), a structure for cryptographically linking the certificate to be used in validation with the signature was introduced; this structure was hardwired to use SHA-1. This document allows for the structure to have algorithm agility and defines a new attribute for this purpose. [STANDARDS-TRACK]

Abstract as published in the RFC, via rfc-editor.org.

What “Proposed Standard” means
