Hey folks, I just released Auto Encrypt Localhost* v8.4.0 with better async support and updated dependencies.

https://www.npmjs.com/package/@small-tech/auto-encrypt-localhost

  • My pure JavaScript module (no mkcert, certutil, etc., required) that automatically provisions and installs locally-trusted TLS certificates for Node.js https servers.

(There seems to be an issue with tests failing on macOS, will debug that tomorrow and likely post a patch release.)

Quick update: the failing tests were apparently because I had my VPN on on macOS (that was creating an additional IPv4 interface that was getting picked up by the tests that check that your server is accessible via a valid TLS certificate from all available local IPs).

So no patch necessary :)

Great, it looks like whatever they changed in Chrome no longer trusts Kitten’s¹ local certificate authority (installed and trusted by the system trust store, as you’d do in a spit enterprise).

Applies to previously trusted and working certificates too.

(The directly related module is Auto Encrypt Localhost²)

Going to look into it today and see if I can’t find a workaround.

FFS…

Right, well, first the good news: It doesn’t look like anything has changed in how Chrom(ium) handles certificates installed in the system trust store.

Now the bad news: I have no idea why the certificate authority that was previously trusted on my main development machine is now showing up as untrusted. Could a Fedora Silverblue update have broken it? Will keep looking into it.

🤔
