Issue
The CRL Reason Code which appears in the published CRL using MS Windows is not the reason code which appears in the certificate. Reason code: "privilegeWithdrawn" shows up as "Unknown CRL Reason(9)".
RFC:
***
5.3.1 Reason Code
The reasonCode is a non-critical CRL entry extension that identifies the reason for the certificate revocation. CRL issuers are strongly encouraged to include meaningful reason codes in CRL entries. However, the reason code CRL entry extension SHOULD be absent instead of using the unspecified (0) reasonCode value.
id-ce-cRLReason OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { id-ce 21 }
-- reasonCode ::= { CRLReason }
CRLReason ::= ENUMERATED {
unspecified (0),
keyCompromise (1),
cACompromise (2),
affiliationChanged (3),
superseded (4),
cessationOfOperation (5),
certificateHold (6),
removeFromCRL (8),
privilegeWithdrawn (9),
aACompromise (10) }
