Hi Everyone,

I've been through RFC 5280 and 6125 looking for a treatment of the
subject matter, but I could not find it. I would expect it to show up
somewhere, like KU or EKU, but the bits appear to be missing.

How do we differentiate authentic servers from proxies performing TLS
interception?

Thanks in advance.
