At ~11:02 AEDT on the 8th of March 2023, Squiz internal monitoring generated SSL alerts for some Australia/New Zealand customers using clients.squiz.net subdomains. Impacted customers may have received an SSL error message upon accessing their site or upon performing a search.
The Squiz Technical Engineering team renewed the expired certificates used by Squiz Edge to communicate with web servers, followed by a restart of Openresty service, promoting recovery at ~11:30 AEDT on the 8th of March 2023.
SSL certificates for some Squiz Edge customers using clients.squiz.net subdomains had expired.
To prevent future recurrences, the Squiz Technical Engineering team will examine and update the procedures and processes involved with these internal certificate renewals.
