ca-certificates update


A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

  • Ubuntu 14.04 ESM
  • Ubuntu 12.04 ESM
Summary


An expired certificate was removed from ca-certificates.

Software Description

  • ca-certificates - Common CA certificates
Details


USN-4377-1 updated ca-certificates. This update provides the corresponding update for Ubuntu 12.04 ESM and Ubuntu 14.04 ESM.

Original advisory details:

The ca-certificates package contained an expired CA certificate that caused connectivity issues. This update removes the "AddTrust External Root" CA.

In addition, on Ubuntu 12.04 ESM and Ubuntu 14.04 ESM, this update refreshes the included certificates to those contained in the 20190110 package.

Update instructions


The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions:

Ubuntu 14.04 ESM
ca-certificates - 20190110~14.04.1~esm1
Ubuntu 12.04 ESM
ca-certificates - 20190110~12.04.1

To update your system, please follow these instructions: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Security/Upgrades.

In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
