expiration warning Proxy-CA after renew

After we renew the Proxy CA cert on every day the admin receive an email with an expiration warning of the old certificate. 
We can download the right certificate from the UTM for the clients (http_proxy_signing_ca.cer).

Reboot not helps.

It is only a cosmetical bug? How can we resolve this?

 

Thanks Heiko

  • I also have this issue. My certificate was issued 2014 and is supposedly valid to 1/01/2038. I came across this thread while looking to solve the issue as I first received the warning  06/22/2017 and I figured I had better get it solved:

    1 certificate(s) will expire within the next 30 days:

    Proxy CA

     --

    System Uptime      : 1 day 12 hours 43 minutes

    System Load        : 1.09

    System Version     : Sophos UTM 9.501-5

    Please refer to the manual for detailed instructions.

    It sounds like maybe I don't have to because it is a cosmetic bug?

  • Generated in 2012 with 8.3, but I see that the behavior has changed - interesting!

  • Try to create a new one...

    Guess your certificate has been created with 6.x or 7.x. Things changed since...

  • Yes, we are talking about the Proxy CA and it is valid for three years from time of creation.

     

    I have the same behaviour on several machines (getting expiration warnings after having recreated the CA).

     

    I belive it's cosmetical but a bug.

     

    BR,

  • Just to be clear, guys, we're talking about the Proxy CA ("Signing CA") downloaded from the 'HTTPS CAs' tab in 'Web Filtering >> Filtering Options' - right?

    I can't believe that doesn't show 2038...

    Cheers - Bob

  • Mine is in 30 days, I don't think it will matter i my case since i don't do any SSL MITM/intercepting in the webproxy. I do only use HTTPS URL Filtering

  • Thanks Kenneth,

    many thanks for your answer.

    if it is a cosmetical bug only, it's not a big problem. The CA expiration time will be in about 14 days. Question is, what really will happens. The Proxy will works fine after this date or not.

  • Definitely a bug, i have the same issue on several UTMs

  • Hi Bob,

    thank you for reply and your answer. Expiration after the renewal is in 2020. Because the customer didn't have a Support contract, we cannot open a Service request. Had called to Sophos Germany already. I think, we have to wait.

    Kind regards Heiko
