http://blog.mozilla.com/security/2011/09/02/diginotar-removal-follow-up/ says "DigiNotar issues certificates as part of the Dutch government’s PKIoverheid (PKIgovernment) program. These certificates are issued from a different DigiNotar-controlled intermediate, and chain up to the Dutch government CA (Staat der Nederlanden). The Dutch government’s Computer Emergency Response Team (GovCERT) indicated that these certificates are issued independently of DigiNotar’s other processes and that, in their assessment, these had not been compromised. The Dutch government therefore requested that we exempt these certificates from the removal of trust, which we agreed to do in our initial security update early this week.
The Dutch government has since audited DigiNotar’s performance and rescinded this assessment. We are now removing the exemption for these certificates, meaning that all DigiNotar certificates will be untrusted by Mozilla products." -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/838322 Title: DigiNotar patch erroneously blocks one of the two Staat der Nederlanden roots Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Fix Released Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “xulrunner-1.9.2” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “firefox” source package in Lucid: In Progress Status in “xulrunner-1.9.2” source package in Lucid: In Progress Status in “firefox” source package in Maverick: In Progress Status in “xulrunner-1.9.2” source package in Maverick: In Progress Status in “firefox” source package in Natty: In Progress Status in “xulrunner-1.9.2” source package in Natty: Invalid Status in “firefox” source package in Oneiric: Triaged Status in “xulrunner-1.9.2” source package in Oneiric: Invalid Bug description: The fix for bug #837557 unfortunately had a small regression for users of Staat der Nederlanden sites.
