def authority_key_identifier
  ext = find_extension("authorityKeyIdentifier")
  return nil if ext.nil?

  aki_asn1 = ASN1.decode(ext.value_der)
  if ext.critical? || aki_asn1.tag_class != :UNIVERSAL || aki_asn1.tag != ASN1::SEQUENCE
    raise ASN1::ASN1Error, "invalid extension"
  end

  key_id = aki_asn1.value.find do |v|
    v.tag_class == :CONTEXT_SPECIFIC && v.tag == 0
  end

  key_id.nil? ? nil : key_id.value
end
