Behavioral Changes

Extended Key Usage Enforced for Peer Connections

Due to an issue in earlier versions of EJBCA, outgoing peer connections would accept server certificates having an Extended Key Usage (EKU) extension, but without the Server Authentication value.

The EKU certificate extension is now enforced. This affects only systems with incorrectly configured EKU certificate extensions. Systems with correctly configured EKU certificate extensions will not require any changes.
