Hello,
I need to force authentication on the device everytime a sign operation is requested from my PKCS#11 library. From the specification, I understood that there is a flag CKA_ALWAYS_AUTHENTICATE of the private key which should be set to TRUE. However, NSS does not request the value of this attribute anywhere so I have no way of telling it that in order to use the key, C_Login needs to be called with user type CKU_CONTEXT_SPECIFIC. I did some google research and found out that currently NSS does not support any of these features (but the posts were quite older). My question is; is the described behavior still unsupported? If yes, are there any possibilities to achieve at least similar effect?
Thanks,

M. Kurpel
