- josephcsible 6y agoIf you're rotating a self-signed certificate, then how do you suppose that clients securely trust it? Or if you just mean replacing it when it expires, then this could instead be tied to the underlying public key alone, which can be reused.
- pornel 6y agoIf your clients support "rotating" self-signed certs just like that, it's a huge MITM vulnerability and makes HTTPS as secure as a TSA checkpoint.
