ABP SSL Certificate Expired 4/6/2016 ?!?!

Post by Cyber7 »

I'm showing that the certificate used by ABP for updates over SSL expired yesterday :!: . Normal operation is not impeded, but ESET yields a warning. The cert was issued for these domains:

DNS Name=easylist-downloads.adblockplus.org
DNS Name=easylist-msie.adblockplus.org
DNS Name=notification.adblockplus.org

We are in the process of updating a bunch of certificates, whilst at the same time changing some parts of the hierachy and thus which certificates cover which domains / subjects. Unfortunately client / user-agent software may have some trouble with cached certificates due to these measures, i.e. when an expired multi-domain certificate is replaced with a set of distict ones. (The issue linked by mapx above was not cache-related but human error though.)
