When ALV returns FAIL for either "Standard Audit ALV Found Cert" or "BR Audit ALV Found Cert" for one of your CA's intermediate certificate records in the CCADB, do the following:
* Check the corresponding audit statement to make sure the SHA-256 fingerprint of the certificate is correctly listed.
* If the SHA-256 fingerprint is listed in the audit statement, then make sure that it meets the [https://www.ccadb.org/policy#51-audit-statement-content format specifications], such as no colons, no spaces, no line feeds.
** For existing audit statements (e.g. audit statements issued in 2019) add a comment to the "Standard Audit ALV Comments" or "BR Audit ALV Comments" fields indicating that the cert's fingerprint is there
* If you do not agree with the ALV results, add comments to the "Standard Audit ALV Comments" or "BR Audit
ALV Comments" fields.
