[cisco-voip] VCS 8.2 won't accept Trusted CA Cert with expiration date of 40 years from now - shows it as expired Dec 31, 1969

Hah! Definitely sounds like a bug. Also that is a terrible security policy.

Customer provided me their root CA and intermediate CA (internal) to load on
the VCS-C

The intermediate cert (expires in 20 yr) is loaded fine, when loading the
root cert (expires in 40 yr) it says its already expired in 1969 !



Is there a limit on the length of a Cert or perhaps just a bug in code ?

Anyone run into this before ?

This is the longest I've seen someone sign a cert for.  Is this common to
use such a long duration ?

I have a TAC case open, still waiting to be contacted by them.



VCS 8.2.1 software



Intermediate Cert
