      Same problem here.
      AddTrust External CA Root is well known to expire today.
      https://www.tbs-certificates.co.uk/FAQ/en/357.html

      I downloaded the needed Package by faking the date:
      disable ntp
      date 2005291212
      pkg update
      install package
      enable ntp

      even "pkg upgrade" and "pkg install ca_root_nss" didn't fix the problem.

      "openssl s_client -connect files01.netgate.com:443" results also in an certificate expired warning.

      Is there a new pgk server for pfsense?

      There is also another thread about that topic with a better name:

            @dennis_s Awesome!

            The issue seems to be that files00.netgate.com and files01.netgate.com are providing invalid certificate chain.

            However, SSL Labs and my Ubuntu Dekstop does not seem to care about provided chain and still find the correct validation path on it's own (Path #1).

            The server is however reporting Path #2 and pfSense box sticks to that - which fails.

              Ahh, I'm struggling with this since Morning (GMT +5:30). Thinking that I'm a newbie to pfsense and then I found this thread @dennis_s hope you guys resolve it soon.

                It work's again! :)

                No need to restart or update anything, they just remove the last erroneous cerificate from the provided chain.

                  It is a pity to increase this further!

                        https://acb.netgate.com/listaction=showbackups

                        SSL certificate problem: certificate has expired

                          While the packages list is resolved, I also have a big problem with the expired certificate.
                          DDNS not updating and webservers that are updated I cannot access because of certificate expiration.
