On: Lavabit SSL Cert Revoked

[ihsw]

It would be interesting to see it be re-instated at the behest of the FBI.

[bcoates → ihsw]

They'd have to go after GoDaddy to do that:

  $ curl http://crl.godaddy.com/gds1-64.crl | 
  > openssl crl -text -noout -inform DER | 
  > grep -A 6 2771FD5D73A8BB
    Serial Number: 2771FD5D73A8BB
        Revocation Date: Oct  3 22:57:44 2013 GMT
        CRL entry extensions:
            X509v3 CRL Reason Code:
                Key Compromise
            Invalidity Date:
                Feb 16 07:00:00 2012 GMT

[jevinskie → ihsw]

It would be pointless, everyone knows by now that it is burned.

[recursive → jevinskie]

Perhaps there is some automated robot that uses it that doesn't follow the news headlines.

Hopefully if such a robot really cares about security, it is checking for revoked certificates. Although this is admittedly a pain to set up.
