Remarks
Gets the issuerUniqueID value from the certificate. The issuer unique identifier is present in the certificate to handle the possibility of reuse of issuer names over time. RFC 3280 recommends that names not be reused and that conforming certificates not make use of unique identifiers. Applications conforming to that profile should be capable of parsing unique identifiers and making comparisons.
The ASN.1 definition for this is:
issuerUniqueID [1] IMPLICIT UniqueIdentifier OPTIONAL
UniqueIdentifier ::= BIT STRING
