Hi Alexander,

Excellent observation. The paChecksum2 value follows the freshness token.

typedef struct PKAuthenticator {
    union {
      ASN1uint16_t bit_mask;
      ASN1octet_t o[1];
    };
    ASN1uint32_t cusec;
    KERB_TIME client_time;
    ASN1uint32_t nonce;
#   define paChecksum_present 0x80
    ASN1octetstring_t paChecksum;
#   define freshnessToken_present 0x40
    ASN1octetstring_t freshnessToken;
#   define paChecksum2_present 0x20
    PAChecksum2 paChecksum2;
} PKAuthenticator;

I will follow up and request any needed documentation updates.

Thank you for pointing this out.

There is one problem, though. RFC 8070 extends PKAuthenticator as well,
by adding freshnessToken right after paChecksum:
https://nam06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdatatracker.ietf.org%2Fdoc%2Fhtml%2Frfc8070%23section-4&data=05%7C02%7Cjeffm%40microsoft.com%7C75804f24abbf48a96f0808dd34092de8%7C72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7C1%7C0%7C638723936688618220%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C60000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=dtoz5g3bC9SnELDgbuWB%2FA06xUX9GdczE1v7BhdFGIo%3D&reserved=0<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8070#section-4>

PKAuthenticator ::= SEQUENCE {
      cusec        [0] INTEGER (0..999999),
      ctime        [1] KerberosTime,
                -- cusec and ctime are used as in [RFC4120], for
                -- replay prevention.
      nonce        [2] INTEGER (0..4294967295),
                -- Chosen randomly;  this nonce does not need to
                -- match with the nonce in the KDC-REQ-BODY.
      paChecksum   [3] OCTET STRING OPTIONAL,
                -- MUST be present.
                -- Contains the SHA1 checksum, performed over
                -- KDC-REQ-BODY.
      ...,
      freshnessToken     [4] OCTET STRING OPTIONAL,
                -- PA_AS_FRESHNESS padata value as received from the
                -- KDC. MUST be present if sent by KDC
      ...
   }

Can you please expand on whether paChecksum2 is added after or before
the freshnessToken? e.g. does paChecksum2 has index [5] or [4]?

If it is indeed paChecksum2 [5], then a reference to RFC 8070 is missing
in the MS-PKCA 2.2.3.

I think MS-PKCA would need an update about this detail as MS-PKCA 3.1.5
explicitly states:

PKCA SHOULD<14> support the PKINIT Freshness Extension [RFC8070].

so MS-PKCA 2.2.3 would need to refer to RFC8070, not just to RFC4556.
