Summary
Netlify has introduced an enhancement in its platform to address the issue of mishandling certificate chains in TLS certificates management. The new feature ensures that TLS certificates are correctly configured and secure, preventing connection failures due to incomplete certificate chains. By actively guarding against cases where the CA chain matches the leaf certificate precisely, Netlify aims to save website administrators from the hassle and risks associated with misconfigured TLS certificates.
