--- abstract
This specification defines a new status mechanism according to {{StatusList}} to convey information about tokens after their issuance. The Identifier List links the status to a unique identifier in the referenced token, similar to the Certificate Revocation List {{RFC5280}} but secured by JOSE {{IANA.JOSE}} and COSE {{IANA.COSE}}.

Token formats secured by JOSE {{IANA.JOSE}} or COSE {{RFC9052}}, such as JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) {{RFC7519}}, CBOR Web Tokens (CWTs) {{RFC8392}} and ISO mdoc {{ISO.mdoc}}, have vast possible applications. Some of these applications can involve issuing a token whereby certain semantics about the token can change over time, which are important to be able to communicate to relying parties in an interoperable manner, such as whether the token is considered invalidated or suspended by its issuer.
This document defines a new status mechanism using the framework that is given by the Status List {{StatusList}}, thus registering a new mechanism in it's registry.
