Description

I would like to add an additional attribute to the CSR (not the certificate) (e.g. a challenge password). It looks like the current API doesn't support custom attributes on the CSR itself, only for CertificateExtensions.

Is there a workaround on how to add the attribute manually?
Is this going to be supported for CSR anytime soon?
