GlobalSign: IP in dnsName

RESOLVED FIXED GlobalSign nv-sa
AI Summary

GlobalSign issued certificates with invalid dnsNames containing IP addresses, ceasing this practice in 2016 without revoking the affected certificates. An incident report was requested due to their failure to respond to a problem report within the required timeframe. Following discussions, all identified certificates were eventually revoked, and GlobalSign has since updated their processes to ensure timely responses to future reports.
