+
+credential-manager: Do online revocation checks only after
+ basic trust chain validation
+
+This avoids querying URLs of potentially untrusted certificates, e.g. if
+an attacker sends a specially crafted end-entity and intermediate CA
+certificate with a CDP that points to a server that completes the
+TCP handshake but then does not send any further data, which will block
+the fetcher thread (depending on the plugin) for as long as the default
+timeout for TCP.  Doing that multiple times will block all worker threads,
+leading to a DoS attack.
+
+The logging during the certificate verification obviously changes.
