According to https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6487#section-4.8:

A certificate-using system MUST reject the
certificate if it encounters a critical extension it does not
recognize

However, based on testing with a yet unassigned critical OID, it seems like rpstir2 does in fact accept certificates when there are unknown critical extensions. I do not expect this to be have any security impact, but it is part of the specs.

thanks

The critical extension has been checked more carefully in the new version, and the results will be printed in the log and stored in the database.
