UnverifiedCommon certificate revocation mechanisms include certificate revocation lists (CRLs) and the Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP); browsers usually have built-in revocation checks or rapidly update root certificate lists, but system-level trust stores are updated less frequently, and many command-line tools do not perform real-time revocation queries by default.77% similarUnverifiedWhen a CA exits the business, if the CRL/OCSP services go offline early, clients will be unable to confirm certificate status, and some strict-mode browsers or systems may report errors directly.74% similarUnverifiedA custom certificate bundle specified via http.sslCAInfo requires tracking the certificate revocation list (CRL) or OCSP status oneself, and the configuration only applies to the current repository or globally to Git, without affecting other tools.71% similarUnverifiedTo respond to an intermediate certificate private key leak, the standard practice is for the CA to add the leaked certificate to a revocation list (CRL) or mark it revoked via OCSP, and for relying parties to update their trust stores.68% similarUnverifiedBrowsers and operating systems have built-in trusted root certificate lists, and only certificates issued by these root certificates or their subordinate intermediate CAs are considered valid.67% similar
