If the responder root CA is set to be trusted for OCSP signing then it can be
used to sign OCSP responses for any certificate (aka a global responder). This
comes under:
1. Matches a local configuration of OCSP signing authority for the
certificate in question
or alternatively:
Additional acceptance or rejection criteria may apply to either the
response itself or to the certificate used to validate the signature
on the response.
from RFC2560 et al.
If the -no_explicit flag is set or OCSP_NOEXPLICIT is set then this behaviour
is disabled.
Do I understand it correctly then that "a local configuration of OCSP
signing authority" here means that it is a deliberate choice inside
OpenSSL itself to look for the OCSPSigning flag in the extended key
usage of the root CA, although RFC 2560 does not say so?
