Summary
pypi-publish action revocation of CA in the chain that Sigstore uses in Trusted Publishing and Digital Attestations for PyPI
Details

Summary

The pypi-publish action versions before 1.14.2 used to bundle the emSign root CA trust store certificate through the certifi distribution. It has since been removed through the bundle and the new version no longer includes them.

Details

The certifi-provided TLS trust store is typically used by many projects in the Python ecosystem, including Sigstore that pypi-publish relies on for Trusted Publishing and Digital Attestations.
