I’m getting the message too. Happens regularly on another small forum I’m on. In case anyone is apprehensive, it’s safe to ignore the security warning and continue to the forum. It’s definitely annoying though, and hopefully the admins get an updated certificate soon! 8-)

Is Gadianton on this problem?

The SCMC, the SeN Coven, Mar-a-Lago, or the St. Petersburg Hacker Collective might exploit this vulnerability. Let's be safe and mail in our early ballots!!!!

Nope. As far as I know (I’m not an expert) the connection is still encrypted with the certificate, that certificate just needs to be renewed.

This may not get fixed for a couple of days. There is no security risk. Just the date is invalid, the session still gets encrypted as dd said.

Good luck with safari and chrome. If you download a non-deep state browser like Firefox, you can click through the warning once and never see it again.

I don't know if you guys can see what I can see but this looks like more than an out of date certificate. Hope everything is ok.

Whoa! You’re right that’s freaky. No clue what I’m looking at there. Looks like maybe it messed with the icons.
