Hi Eric, Allowing CA certificates with the digitalSignature key usage flag enabled defeats the purpose of the new Kconfig. Please update the above definition to exclude the digitalSignature key usage flag and modify the code accordingly. thanks, Mimi > With this series applied, CA enforcement is in place whenever > IMA_KEYRINGS_PERMIT_SIGNED_BY_BUILTIN_OR_SECONDARY is enabled.
