From: "MartinBosslet (Martin Bosslet)" Date: 2013-03-28T09:08:24+09:00 Subject: [ruby-core:53786] [ruby-trunk - Bug #8178][Assigned] OpenSSL::PKCS7::SignerInfo Issue #8178 has been updated by MartinBosslet (Martin Bosslet). Category set to ext Status changed from Open to Assigned Assignee set to MartinBosslet (Martin Bosslet) Target version set to current: 2.1.0 ---------------------------------------- Bug #8178: OpenSSL::PKCS7::SignerInfo https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/8178#change-37979 Author: Jacob640 (Joseph Coyle) Status: Assigned Priority: Normal Assignee: MartinBosslet (Martin Bosslet) Category: ext Target version: current: 2.1.0 ruby -v: ruby 2.1.0dev (2013-03-28 trunk 39971) [x86_64-darwin11.4.2] The instance method OpenSSL::PKCS7::SignerInfo.name does not return the signing certificate name but the X509 name of the signer's issuer. This is because SignerInfo.name is actually an alias of SignerInfo.issuer. This appears to be a mistake particularly because OpenSSL::PKCS7::RecepientInfo doesn't have a corresponding name method. Perhaps OpenSSL::PKCS7::SignerInfo.name should be considered for removal since the method name is misleading. -- http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
