[Bug] Microsoft Edge on Mac OS X reports certificate as ERR_CERT_REVOKED

Copper Contributor

  • The certificate is still valid.
  • The certificate's root is NOT installed on the system.
  • The URL looks like: https://****.home.lan:8443

While it shouldn't be trusted, it shouldn't be reported as revoked I believe, and still allow me to continue to the website.

Hi,
is your CA an offline one?
if it it isn't an offline one, you need to install the root certificate. also provide a way like OCSP for programs to get the CRL.
the certificate's date doesn't mean anything. because the CA can revoke it at any time. I'm sure you know this

@KristofMattei Thanks for sharing this, and welcome to the MS Edge Insiders community. For some initial troubleshooting; does this also happen on other Chromium-based browsers, and/or other channels in Microsoft Edge? And if it doesn't happen in other places, can you please submit detailed feedback and diagnostics through the browser?

@Deleted So couple of things:

1) Weirdly enough this did not happen in Safari (when I opened this thread). It does now, why, I don't know..., maybe I accepted it even before)

2) The error still stands, but I managed to trace it down. 

 

The issue is that the certificate was valid for longer than 825 days. Since this is all in my local network I did 10 years and Mac OS X does not like that. 

 

Now, I don't know whether Edge/Chrome go THROUGH the same engine, or whether they have a different engine with the same rules, but at the moment I am error free and I will need to renew the certificate in 824 days! 

 

Feature request: is there a certificate validator somewhere for local certificates? Like something that goes over it line by line and says what's wrong? The error that I got was really non-descriptive, in fact, it was even wrong.

 

Thanks for checking in. 

@KristofMattei Glad to hear it worked out! And yes, we'll make a note of this.
