NETLOCK: SSL certificates with OU field
NETLOCK identified that multiple SSL certificates issued after September 1, 2022, contained an Organizational Unit (OU) field, which is not compliant with current requirements. Upon discovering this issue, NETLOCK modified its internal processes to prevent the issuance of certificates with the OU field and notified affected customers about the need to revoke their certificates. The revocation and reissuance of compliant certificates were scheduled to occur between March 1 and March 16, 2023. The issue was disclosed in Bugzilla on March 3, 2023, and all affected certificates were renewed by the defined deadline. NETLOCK has since updated its internal policies and established new linting processes to ensure compliance.
