[openssl-dev] [openssl.org #3687] openssl-0.9.8j: attribute "signingTime": unable to print attribute

[Ulrich Windl via RT]

Hello!

I found this problem in SUSE's SLES 11 SP3 with openssl-0.9.8j-0.68.1 and a certificate sign request created by Symantecs PGP Desktop 10.2.1:
It seems the CSR contains an attribute signing time that openssl does not understand:

        Attributes:
            signingTime              :unable to print attribute
        Requested Extensions:
            1.3.6.1.4.1.3401.8.1.1:
150203113156Z   .

I guess the above means 2015-02-03_11:31:56 UTC.  Would be nice if openssl could know about that. Here's the (dummy) CSR for reference:
