4.5.6.1 Status Checking
Just as it’s generally unwise
to trust the data in a revoked certificate, because it may or may not
be valid, it’s unwise to trust the data in a suspended certificate.
This is another reason that a potential
user should verify a certificate’s validity by status checking.
As mentioned previously, this entails
checking against the CRL or OCSP (or any other mechanism used by the
CA to validate its digital certificates). If it is temporarily impossible
to check the validity, the user must make an informed choice about whether
to accept the risk of using a certificate whose authenticity cannot
be verified.
