DGV-TC-087L8: Authority ContinuityGER-287: Downstream InvalidationVersion: 1.0.0
Downstream Invalidation on Revocation
Verifies that when an actor in the lineage chain is revoked, all downstream receipts that depend on that actor's authority are invalidated. The gate MUST DENY any action whose lineage includes a revoked actor.
Operational Purpose & Scope
When an actor in the lineage chain is revoked, all downstream receipts must be invalidated. The gate MUST DENY any action whose lineage includes a revoked actor.
Verification Context
- Target Scope:
dgv-verifier CLI execution - downstream invalidation test - Audit Strategy:
downstream_invalidation - Verification Metrics:
downstream_invalidatedlineage_blocked - Framework Origin:DGV L8: Authority Continuity
- Mandatory:Yes — must pass for certification
Governance Risk & Penalty
Downstream receipts that remain valid after an upstream revocation allow unauthorized execution through stale authority.
Expected Outcome
- gate_status:
"DENY"
