Why do I get invalid server certificate errors?

I am getting 5 errors in iTunes v.12.7.3.46:

1.iTunes can’t verify the identity of the server “xp.apple.com”.

The certificate for this server is invalid.

2. iTunes can’t verify the identity of the server “p10-buy.itunes.apple.com”.

The certificate for this server is invalid.

3. iTunes can’t verify the identity of the server “play.itunes.apple.com”.

The certificate for this server is invalid.

4. iTunes can’t verify the identity of the server “itunes.apple.com”.

The certificate for this server is invalid.

5. iTunes can’t verify the identity of the server “client-api.itunes.apple.com”.

The certificate for this server is invalid.

Is there a solution?Thanks

Hello technology today,

Thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities and asking about iTunes errors you are receiving. It looks like you are having trouble trying to buy something with the second error. These errors can be caused by third-party security. I recommend trying the troubleshooting provided in the following help article: Resolve issues between iTunes and third-party security software

Even if you do not have security software, there is a section in the article to help you check your connectivity and host files. Thanks and have a wonderful day.

The problem resolved itself somehow in the next 1-2 hours. I don't know what the cause was.
