Sectigo: Temporary unavailability for subset of CRLs

RESOLVED FIXED Sectigo
AI Summary

On July 16, 2024, Sectigo experienced a temporary unavailability of 13 Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs) due to a change in their infrastructure aimed at decommissioning a deprecated CRL distribution system. This change inadvertently caused the affected CRLs to return a 504 Gateway Time-out error for approximately one hour. The issue was identified and resolved quickly, with the affected CRLs restored shortly after the problem was detected. Lessons learned included the need for better confirmation processes before decommissioning legacy systems.
