From dd37f6f12cc14cc4710289746b112eb0fed3b0b7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matt Caswell Date: Fri, 19 Jan 2018 14:34:56 +0000 Subject: Don't allow an empty Subject when creating a Certificate Misconfiguration (e.g. an empty policy section in the config file) can lead to an empty Subject. Since certificates should have unique Subjects this should not be allowed.
