Mozilla, Microsoft drop root Certificate Authority • The Register

Updated Mozilla and Microsoft have taken action against a certificate authority accused of having close ties to a US military contractor that allegedly paid software developers to embed data-harvesting malware in mobile apps.

The CA, TrustCor, denies this, but has not responded to direct questions at time of publication.

After a lengthy discussion between staff at Mozilla and Apple, security researchers and the CA itself, Mozilla program manager Kathleen Wilson said the org's concerns were "substantiated" enough to set a distrust date of November 30 for TrustCor's root certificates.?

The back and forth took place on Mozilla's dev-security-policy (MDSP) mailing list, and you can read the full discussion there. Microsoft didn't participate in the conversation; instead, TrustCor executive Rachel McPherson claimed that Microsoft had set a distrust date of November 1 for her company's certs.?

Weather Update – December 5, 2022

|

Nice to start out the day. ☀

Rain ☔ and clouds ☁️ for Tuesday into Wednesday. Then hopefully better for the second half of the week. So far so good, I’d like to get up to the Adirondacks later this week. Days are getting short as we approach the first day of winter, but so far fairly mild. Regular season is done up north, and there is not much snow up there. So it might be nice to get away for a few days, though I need cell service come Friday so I can check if I have jury duty for the following week — so I can let my employer know, plan future days off, and figure out when I can get my truck inspected.
