What did you do?
Generated a CA and used it to issue a server certificate using main.go shared @ https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1415181 ; installed the root CA in Firefox by navigating to it; tried to visit an HTTPS website using the server certificate.
What did you expect to see?
Connections going through.
What did you see instead?
Firefox erroring out with SEC_ERROR_BAD_DER.
Based on Firefox's feedback, the problem is in the following snippet:
if (len(template.PermittedDNSDomains) > 0 || len(template.ExcludedDNSDomains) > 0) &&
!oidInExtensions(oidExtensionNameConstraints, template.ExtraExtensions) {
ret[n].Id = oidExtensionNameConstraints
ret[n].Critical = template.PermittedDNSDomainsCritical
var out nameConstraints
out.Permitted = make([]generalSubtree, len(template.PermittedDNSDomains))
for i, permitted := range template.PermittedDNSDomains {
out.Permitted[i] = generalSubtree{Name: permitted}
}
out.Excluded = make([]generalSubtree, len(template.ExcludedDNSDomains))
for i, excluded := range template.ExcludedDNSDomains {
out.Excluded[i] = generalSubtree{Name: excluded}
}
ret[n].Value, err = asn1.Marshal(out)
if err != nil {
return
}
n++
}
If ExcludedDNSDomains is empty, the DER shouldn't contain a second empty sequence.
out.Excluded should be nil instead of []generalSubtree{}.
Apparently Mozilla's strict DER checking rejects the certificate chain as a result.
I will update this ticket once confirmed.
