Advisory: ISIS 5 has a SSL certificate issued by a different GeoTrust root CA
Impact: This advisory may affect a production ISIS application running on older apache and/or custom web servers.
The following bulletin was posted on the isisdev-l list on 9/11/2006.
Hi all,
It has just come to my attention that even though we obtained the new SSL certificate for ISIS 5 from the same vendor (Equifax/GeoTrust), GeoTrust issued the certificate using a different CA.
This may cause connection problems if you are running older versions of Apache or a custom compiled web server. Older web servers may not have the correct root CA installed in its trusted CA store.
If you are experiencing connection problems involving SSL handshake/certificate trust, please follow the instruction at:
Equifax CA Certificate Installation Instruction
to download and install the correct CA cert on your web server.
