6 sq-key-attest-certifications - Attests to third-party certifications
7 allowing for their distribution
8
9 To prevent certificate flooding attacks, modern key servers prevent un‐
10 controlled distribution of third-party certifications on certificates.
11 To make the key holder the sovereign over the information over what in‐
12 formation is distributed with the certificate, the key holder needs to
13 explicitly attest to third-party certifications.
14
15 After the attestation has been created, the certificate has to be dis‐
16 tributed, e.g. by uploading it to a keyserver.
