Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/57.0.2987.98 Safari/537.36 Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Open https://www.airtime.pro/ - cert is valid There is certificate: Valid from November 25, 2015 to November 25, 2017 Signature Algorithm: sha256WithRSAEncryption Issuer: StartCom Class 2 Primary Intermediate Server CA 2. Open https://demo.superdesk.org/ - NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID There is certificate: Valid from December 13, 2015 to December 13, 2017 Signature Algorithm: sha256WithRSAEncryption Issuer: StartCom Class 2 Primary Intermediate Server CA What is the expected behavior? What went wrong? Hi, after chrome upgrade to 57 I found that some (not all) startcom certificates are not valid. I don't see the difference between valid and not valid certificates (see steps for reproducing) that is understandable to me. At same time I didn't have any issue with 56 version. All certs are issued before Oct-2016 and based on sha256 hash. Did this work before? Yes 56 Chrome version: 57.0.2987.98 Channel: stable OS Version: 10.0 Flash Version:

Correct, trust in StartCom and WoSign certificates is in the process of being removed. Chrome 58 removes a substantially larger number of these, and Chrome 59 will continue this process, due to the issues noted in that post.

But both valid and invalid certs are based on same issuer. There is no any difference except two weeks shift in valid from date. That's understandable.

The difference is that they're issued for different domains. All certificates from these issuers will eventually be distrusted. The priority of distrust is that certificates for the largest sites are being distrusted last, in order to allow sufficient time to replace or find alternative certificates. www.airtime.pro's certificate will be distrusted in a future release.
