NET::ERR_TLS_CERT_VALIDITY_TOO_LONG for certificates from own CAs

Hi


Starting with macOS 10.15.7 and 11.0.1 the TLS certificate checks have changed. According to https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211025 the restriction of a maximum cert validity restriction only affects public trusted CAs preinstalled with the OS. But with the above OS versions also certificates from company internal CAs (not preinstalled) are reject if they are longer valid. Safari and Google Chrome browser report the roor "NET::ERR_CERT_VALIDITY_TOO_LONG". Since these browser rely on the OS mechanisms for certificate checking this seems to be a bug in macOS for me.

How can I trust my certificates from the company internal CA again even if they are valid for e.g. 3 years?


Regards,

Ulf
