In a new support bulletin released today, Pulse Secure explains that "multiple functionalities/features fail for End-Users with a Certificate error." Thus, it allows Windows to consider a file signed even after a certificate becomes invalid. The benefit to timestamps is that it proves that an executable was signed before a certificate expired or revoked. When signing an executable, developers can use an optional time-stamping server that adds an authoritative timestamp to a signature, proving when a file was signed by the certificate. If a signed executable or DLL is modified somehow, the operating system will no longer consider the program signed and result in warnings or other errors. Bug verifying signed files behind the outageĪ code-signing certificate allows developers to digitally sign program's executables so that Windows and end-users can verify that they have not been tampered with by a third party. This issue affects users globally and is caused by an expired code-signing certificate and a bug in the Pulse Secure software that is not properly verifying that executables are signed.
