For the meaning of these actions, see the description of the
by cer-
tificate
method above.
A message will then be displayed, stating if the exception has been added
successfully and providing information on the result of the verification process.
If the by certificate method has been configured, you are informed whether
the certificate in question was issued by a trusted or not-trusted certification
authority (CA) from the corresponding list.
If the CA could not be found on this list, the certificate is implicitly forbidden.
If the inspection of a certificate results in an error or open issue, the depth of
the certificate is also stated in the corresponding error message. By depth is
meant the position the certificate takes within the certificate chain.
So, e. g.
depth = 0
means the certificate has been issued immediately for
the software in question, as is the case with self-signed certificates,
depth =
1
is for a certificate issued to certify a
depth 0
certificate and so on.
The newly added exception will be shown in a list displayed below.
