Description
Observed on the 16 February 2012 snapshot, i386 nanobsd version, running on a Soekris net4801.
Go to System -> Cert Manager -> Certificates.
Set Method: Create a Certificate Signing Request.
Notice the default Key Length is 2048 bits.
Now create a CSR that is invalid. A quick 'n' easy way to do this is to immediately click "Save".
Now notice that the Key Length has decreased to 512 bits for no apparent reason.
I tried something similar to create an internal CA and I didn't see this bug; in other words, the Key Length correctly remained at 2048 bits even after my inputs were rejected.
