The signature field is computed over the DER-encoded value of certReq Notes ----- The original text conflicts with the following text block (just several lines later). " The fields of POPOSigningKeyInput have the following meaning: sender contains an authenticated identity that has been previously established for the subject. publicKeyMAC contains a computed value that uses a shared secret between the CA/RA and the certificate requestor. publicKey contains a copy of the public key from the certificate template. This MUST be exactly the same value as is contained in the certificate template." Instructions: ------------- This erratum is currently posted as "Reported".
