RE: [pkcs11] Groups - Profile Objects Proposal Draft 2 uploaded

[Daniel Minder <Daniel.Minder@utimaco.com>]

Bob, all,

 

Thanks for the proposal. Two things I’ve noticed:

 

In the header file, CKP_VENDOR should probably be CKP_VENDOR_DEFINED (cf. first page of proposal)

 

In the profile objects overview a paragraph similar to a statement for hardware feature objects might be useful:

“When searching for objects using C_FindObjectsInit and C_FindObjects, profile objects are not returned unless the CKA_CLASS attribute in the template has the value CKO_PROFILE. This protects applications written to previous versions of Cryptoki from finding objects that they do not understand.”

 

Best regards,

Daniel
