All extensions disabled due to expiration of intermediate signing cert

I’ll still keep using Firefox since I recognize the importance of browser diversity and the hazards of a Chrome monoculture (that and vertical tabs), but, yikes.

Still, this type of oversight seems all too common even in large companies. I remember several cases from Fortune 500 companies in the past few years alone. What would be a good way to automate checking for them? Has anyone developed a tool designed specifically to avoid certificate expiry disasters?

LetsEncrypt renewal is supposed to be automated. [1]

I know of a company that hosted blogs for thousands of customers. They used LetsEncrypt, but the CTO considered automatic renewals a possible security risk, so they did it manually. Problem is, the expiration happened in a weekend and they "forgot" to update the certificates before that. Suffice to say that the next Monday wasn't pleasant. They automated after that.

Just curious, are you talking about Webflow? Because I had to hunt down and make sure our Let's Encrypt auto renewal was working until I realized the certificate was served by them. They wait until the last 12 hours to renew the certificate. I have no idea what type of rationalization would lead to that decision.
