Description Mark J. Cox 2007-09-25 08:12:30 UTC
New revocations performed while a CRL is being generated
could potentially cause revoked certificates at the upper
end of the serial number range to not appear on the CRL.

In subsequent CRLs, those missing certificates could again
appear on the CRL.

Comment 2 Mark J. Cox 2007-09-25 08:15:51 UTC
CVSS base score 3.6:

AccessVector: Network
AccessComplexity: High (you have no way of making a particular certificate
become unrevoked, just chance)
Authentication: Single (you need an otherwise valid but revoked certificate)
ConfImpact: Partial
AvailImpact: None
IntegImpact: Partial
