i am making a mitm attack using proxy. The mitm works fine but the problem is chrome detects it. therefore, i have changed the code so it installs the certificate every time you enter a new website. However, the chrome steel says that the certificate authority is invalid. The error code chrome prints:
I used the following line to install the certificate:
powershell -c Import-Certificate -FilePath '{path}' -CertStoreLocation Cert:\LocalMachine\Root
I tryed to install the certificate to chrome manually as well but nothing changed.
I am searching for a way to either install the certificate proparlly or change the browser's sttings so it will ignore the error and let me in to the site. i have searched this on google but i couldn't find a wat to do so.

My local vagrant box is no longer reachable by chrome with the error
You cannot visit mysite.local right now because its certificate has
been revoked.
I have no particular interest in hardening that box, as all developed code goes via git to bare metal that has little in common with the vagrant. How can I tell Chrome to skip that check (ideally on all local and dev subdomains)?
When you see the message "Your connection is not private", click somewhere on the page and then type the following:
thisisunsafe
This will bypass the warning.
I am evaluating W3C pay Google examples by enabling the Chrome Extension from Google's example here: https://bobpay.xyz/ (Clicking "Install web payment app" on the bottom). This installs the W3C Pay Chrome extension.
I then use their demo here:
https://paymentrequest.show/demo/
I am able to submit a payment using the "Bobpay" extension, see below:
... however when it comes time to redirect to the Bob pay "Account Selector" web application (the front end of the Payment Handler), I get the following error in Chrome's Developer tools:
"Aborting payment handler window "https://bobpay.xyz/pay" because of navigation to an insecure url "chrome-extension://noojglkidnpfjbincgijbaiedldjfbhh/data/shared/tpc-check.html"
It's complaining that the redirection to the chrome-extension URL scheme is insecure.
I already took both Certs from bobpay.xyz and paymentrequest.show sites, and installed them to my System keychain. Then I trusted both SSL certs. This didn't help.
BTW, this works on Windows, but not on MacOS (Chrome on both).
Also: submitting a sample credit card payment outside of the Bobpay extension works fine (by using a locally stored Credit card option, and not the Bobpay extension) - returns tokenized card to be forwarded to payment processor.
This demo code also does not work on any other browsers, such as Firefox or Safari (unsupported on both).
In the Security panel of Chrome Developer tools, we can also see that the Chrome Extension for Bobpay is marked as "Unsecure":
I also installed the whole thing on Localhost, created a self signed SSL cert, added it to keychain, trusted it, and ran an https-server with that cert, but I get the same issue on https://localhost:8080/bobpay as well.
After verifying that the demo worked on another MacOS machine, I figured I introduced an issue trying to clone bobpay and deploy it on localhost under another name. The two payment handlers were somehow trampling over each other, when redirecting to the Frontend Handler page.
I ended up removing all Chrome files in ~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome, clearing all Chrome settings (reset to default), and re-installing Chrome. This cleaned out all extensions, cached data, and service workers under Dev Console --> Application. I am now able to proceed without errors.
All of a sudden I seem to have an issue with Google Chrome using localhost.
I'm trying to access any of my development sites (using Ampps) and I get the following error:-
Your connection is not private Attackers might be trying to steal your
information from website.dev (for example, passwords, messages
or credit cards). Learn more NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID
When I visit any of the dev sites it is redirecting from http://website.dev to https://website.dev automatically. I'm not having any issue in Safari or Firefox so I don't understand what is going on.
I've tried re-installing Google Chrome, resetting it to the factory default settings...
I think it could be an issue with Keychain Access --> Certificates but wouldn't that mean it wouldn't work in Firefox and Safari if that was the case?
I've spent a while trying to find a solution but so far nothing has worked so I would appreciate some suggestions on how I can fix this. I can't even proceed passed this warning as I don't get the proceed link (insecure) as shown below:-
Navigate to
chrome://flags/#allow-insecure-localhost
and set this to enabled.
After playing around, I came up with one kind of a solution.
First, lets talk about the problem: the cause of this error is that both of us used a .dev domain for our local development. If you go here you will find out that root .dev domain is owned by Google and applying HSTS in Chrome they enforce https-redirect for this domain. Since we use .dev domains, we get redirected to https version and at the same time we don't have any actual certificates installed. So, we see this annoying error. If you go to chrome://net-internals/#hsts you can check your .dev domain and you will actually find out that
static_sts_domain: dev
static_upgrade_mode: FORCE_HTTPS
static_sts_include_subdomains: true
which confirms that HSTS is enforced on *.dev indeed. The policy type is static and, as I understand, it's kind of hard-coded to https-redirect .dev domains.
So, there are at least 2 ways - get and set up an actual certificate somehow or just use another (not .dev) root domain in httpd-vhosts.conf for your local development (also don't forget to update /etc/hosts and launch apache again). I went another root domain route and it solved this issue.
This is really annoying to deal with, but mapping the local website to something other than .dev (I personally use .devo) does work and fixes the problem in chrome. Also, you can add an exception for the page in Mozilla Firefox and not deal with this at all. It's only a problem on Chrome 63+
Best solution is to not use .dev because it owned by Google.
Here you can find an updated list of all claimed TLDs : https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6761
To be safe, choose an unclaimed TLD like .test or .localhost. You can read a useful blog post here : https://iyware.com/dont-use-dev-for-development/
I got same bug, because the CRL file is out of date, and the solution is that update the crl file
you need to add remote site certificate to your local key store
To download certificate from remote site, you will require keytool, open gitbash as admin and run below command to generate the certificate
openssl s_client -showcerts -connect host:port
save the value of above command to from -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- to -----END CERTIFICATE----- to the .crt file.
to add certificate to your local key store, run below command
keytool -import -noprompt -trustcacerts -alias name_of_certificate -file "path_of_dot_crt_file" -keystore "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_192\jre\lib\security\cacerts" -storepass changeit
you can also add downloaded certificate to your browser.
In my case, in order to solve the issue so that I can "Proceed to unsafe",
I needed to go to:
chrome://net-internals/#sockets
then click: "Close idle sockets", "Flush socket pools"
Afterwards go to:
chrome://net-internals/#dns
Then click "Clear host cache"
If it still doesn't work and you are a mac user, try to repeat above after removing localhost certificates using Apple's Keychain Access tool
Here's the deal. We are trying to install some Chrome extensions (version 47+) via GPO. We're putting the ExtensionInstallForcelist under the user configuration, but it's not working. The registry entry shows up, so the GPO works, but Chrome doesn't seem to be reading it to perform the install.
There is a slight catch. We are running Websense Endpoint agent on our systems, which installs its own Chrome extension by adding a registry entry under the ExtensionInstallForcelist in HKLM.
When I look at the Chrome Policies, I see the ExtensionInstallForcelist enabled only for "Machine".
Does Chrome only accept one install list? Either HKLM or HKCU with HKLM being the preferred? At least that's the behavior that I'm seeing.
Any help or information would be appreciated. All of the information that I've found on Chrome Extensions and GPO only list the Machine policy and don't really cover the User policy.
Thank you.
We had the exact same issue as you, with the Websense Endpoint trumping any GPO User level ExtensionInstallForcelist settings we put in place for a custom Chrome Extension.
This was the party line I found from Chromium project regarding who wins in User vs Machine chrome policies:
"Correct. We do not merge policy values, we just use the value read from the highest-priority source."
(Taken from this person who had the same problem:
https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!msg/chrome/wygwLDak6ZQ/NKurhHpdCgAJ )
Observationally, the Machine level is apparently the higher priority source. As such, we moved all the Chrome extensions settings to the Computer Configuration level of the GPO instead, this worked and installed our custom extension and all settings, however, this in turn prevented the Websense Endpoint from making it's ExtensionInstallForcelist registry entries and stopped it loading correctly.
So we ended up adding the Websense Extension details to the machine level GPO ForceInstallList as well:
mkkjioebiampndpmidmadhpmgffdckhe;C:\Program Files\Websense\Websense Endpoint\dlpext.xml
This is obviously not the best approach, as we now need to manage/keep an eye the Websense endpoint deployments via GPO, but it got things working for the subset of machines we needed to install the Chrome extension on.

All my desktop browsers open this fine. Mobile Firefox opens this fine. Only when I tried with mobile Chrome did I get the error: err_cert_authority_invalid
I know very little about SSL, so I can't really make sense of the SSL report or why this error is coming up. If someone could ELI5, that would be ideal. :)
I just spent the morning dealing with this. The problem wasn't that I had a certificate missing. It was that I had an extra.
I started out with my ssl.conf containing my server key and three files provided by my SSL certificate authority:
# Server Certificate:
SSLCertificateFile /etc/pki/tls/certs/myserver.cer
# Server Private Key:
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/pki/tls/private/myserver.key
# Server Certificate Chain:
SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/pki/tls/certs/AddTrustExternalCARoot.pem
# Certificate Authority (CA):
SSLCACertificateFile /etc/pki/tls/certs/InCommonServerCA.pem
It worked fine on desktops, but Chrome on Android gave me err_cert_authority_invalid
A lot of headaches, searching and poor documentation later, I figured out that it was the Server Certificate Chain:
SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/pki/tls/certs/AddTrustExternalCARoot.pem
That was creating a second certificate chain which was incomplete. I commented out that line, leaving me with
# Server Certificate:
SSLCertificateFile /etc/pki/tls/certs/myserver.cer
# Server Private Key:
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/pki/tls/private/myserver.key
# Certificate Authority (CA):
SSLCACertificateFile /etc/pki/tls/certs/InCommonServerCA.pem
and now it's working on Android again. This was on Linux running Apache 2.2.
I had this same problem while hosting a web site via Parse and using a Comodo SSL cert resold by NameCheap.
You will receive two cert files inside of a zip folder:
www_yourdomain_com.ca-bundle
www_yourdomain_com.crt
You can only upload one file to Parse:
Parse SSL Cert Input Box
In terminal combine the two files using:
cat www_yourdomain_com.crt www_yourdomain_com.ca-bundle > www_yourdomain_com_combine.crt
Then upload to Parse. This should fix the issue with Android Chrome and Firefox browsers. You can verify that it worked by testing it at https://www.sslchecker.com/sslchecker
For those having this problem on IIS servers.
Explanation: sometimes certificates carry an URL of an intermediate certificate instead of the actual certificate. Desktop browsers can DOWNLOAD the missing intermediate certificate using this URL. But older mobile browsers are unable to do that. So they throw this warning.
You need to
1) make sure all intermediate certificates are served by the server
2) disable unneeded certification paths in IIS - Under "Trusted Root Certification Authorities", you need to "disable all purposes" for the certificate that triggers the download.
PS. my colleague has wrote a blog post with more detailed steps: https://www.jitbit.com/maxblog/21-errcertauthorityinvalid-on-android-and-iis/
The report from SSLabs says:
This server's certificate chain is incomplete. Grade capped to B.
....
Chain Issues Incomplete
Desktop browsers often have chain certificates cached from previous connections or download them from the URL specified in the certificate. Mobile browsers and other applications usually don't.
Fix your chain by including the missing certificates and everything should be right.
I hope i am not too late, this solution here worked for me, i am using COMODO SSL, the above solutions seem invalid over time, my website lifetanstic.co.ke
Instead of contacting Comodo Support and gain a CA bundle file You can do the following:
When You get your new SSL cert from Comodo (by mail) they have a zip file attached. You need to unzip the zip-file and open the following files in a text editor like notepad:
AddTrustExternalCARoot.crt
COMODORSAAddTrustCA.crt
COMODORSADomainValidationSecureServerCA.crt
Then copy the text of each ".crt" file and paste the texts above eachother in the "Certificate Authority Bundle (optional)" field.
After that just add the SSL cert as usual in the "Certificate" field and click at "Autofil by Certificate" button and hit "Install".
Inspired by this gist: https://gist.github.com/ipedrazas/6d6c31144636d586dcc3
I also had a problem with the chain and managed to solve using this guide https://gist.github.com/bradmontgomery/6487319
if you're like me who is using AWS and CloudFront, here's how to solve the issue. it's similar to what others have shared except you don't use your domain's crt file, just what comodo emailed you.
cat COMODORSADomainValidationSecureServerCA.crt COMODORSAAddTrustCA.crt AddTrustExternalCARoot.crt > ssl-bundle.crt
this worked for me and my site no longer displays the ssl warning on chrome in android.
A decent way to check whether there is an issue in your certificate chain is to use this website:
https://www.digicert.com/help/
Plug in your test URL and it will tell you what may be wrong. We had an issue with the same symptom as you, and our issue was diagnosed as being due to intermediate certificates.
SSL Certificate is not trusted
The certificate is not signed by a trusted authority (checking against
Mozilla's root store). If you bought the certificate from a trusted
authority, you probably just need to install one or more Intermediate
certificates. Contact your certificate provider for assistance doing
this for your server platform.
I solved my problem with this commands:
cat __mydomain_com.crt __mydomain_com.ca-bundle > __mydomain_com_combine.crt
and after:
cat __mydomain_com_combine.crt COMODORSADomainValidationSecureServerCA.crt
COMODORSAAddTrustCA.crt AddTrustExternalCARoot.crt > mydomain.pem
And in my domain nginx .conf I put on the server 443:
ssl_certificate ssl/mydomain.pem;
ssl_certificate_key ssl/mydomain.private.key;
I don't forget restart your "Nginx"
service nginx restart
I had the same probleme but the response made by Mike A helped me to figure it out:
I had a my certificate, an intermediate certificate (Gandi) , an other intermediate (UserTrustRSA) and finally the RootCA certificate (AddTrust).
So first i made a chain file with Gandi+UserTrustRSA+AddTrust and specified it with SSLCertificateChainFile. But it didn't worked.
So i tried MikeA answer by just putting AddTruct cert in a file and specified it with SSLCACertificateFile and removing SSLCertificateChainFile.But it didn't worked.
So finnaly i made a chain file with only Gandi+UserTrustRSA specified by SSLCertificateChainFile and the other file with only the RootCA specified by SSLCACertificateFile and it worked.
# Server Certificate:
SSLCertificateFile /etc/ssl/apache/myserver.cer
# Server Private Key:
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/ssl/apache/myserver.key
# Server Certificate Chain:
SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/ssl/apache/Gandi+UserTrustRSA.pem
# Certificate Authority (CA):
SSLCACertificateFile /etc/ssl/apache/AddTrust.pem
Seems logical when you read but hope it helps.
I guess you should install CA certificate form one if authority canter:
ssl_trusted_certificate ssl/SSL_CA_Bundle.pem;
Just do the following for Version 44.0.2403.155 dev-m
