Description

Steps to reproduce:

  • have existing internal CA
  • import external CA (in my case, signed by the internal CA but generated externally)
  • enter wrong private key for CA and save (this should fail, btw.)
  • open dialogue "user manager" -> "edit user"
  • create user certificate

The resulting user cert will be signed by the existing internal CA instead of failing.

Starting this process from the cert manager works as expected and fails with "The following input errors were detected:
openssl library returns: error:0B080074:x509 certificate routines:X509_check_private_key:key values mismatch".
