MD5-Signed Certificate Warning with OpenVPN on iOS
As of version 1.2.8 of the OpenVPN app on iOS, OpenVPN issues the following warning: > WARN TLS: received certificate signed with MD5. > Please inform your admin to upgrade to a > stronger algori...
FYI, I documented the steps to required to replace the certificates here. Unfortunately it the steps are written for users of Windows, but it also uses mostly cross-platform OpenSource tools and explains what's going on so I think it should be pretty translatable if you don't have access to any Windows boxes.
Just posting this so you have at least one go-forward path.

johngm - do you have this issue under your controls? Just a few days are left ... Windows OpenVPN has already changed to OpenSSL 1.1 breaking toe compatibility. While almost all Netgear routers/Nighthawk/Orbi require an update, the Orbi Pro is coming from your Business Unit. The community is seriously concerned about the silence from regarding the "consumer" units - but also ref. the Orbi Pro. Thank you!
Does anyone at Netgear have the timeline to fixing the Openvpn MD5 issue. This has casued me severe issues as my people can no longer gain access to vital information via the VPN client that Netgear provided. There was ample warning from Openvpn to change certs. This is crazy that a company like Netgear can not provided a resolution before the deadline. I have always purchased Netgear equipment but I assure you this will be the last purchase for me from NETGEAR. I guess the customer no longer matters to Netgear !!! I hope future sales show Netgear the people dont care or require Netgear prodcuts for equipment. Disgusted !!!
