## Credential ID Unsigned ## {#sctn-credentialIdSecurity}

The [=credential ID=] is not signed.
The [=credential ID=] accompanying an [=authentication assertion=] is not signed.
This is not a problem because all that would happen if an [=authenticator=] returns
the wrong [=credential ID=], or if an attacker intercepts and manipulates the [=credential ID=], is that the [=[WRP]=] would not look up the correct
[=credential public key=] with which to verify the returned signed [=authenticator data=]
