IE CRL check FAIL…

March 2nd, 2011 2 comments

Just follow the steps below:

 

1. IE setting for CRL checking of the server certificate is enabled

 

2. Set the hostnames of servers hosting the CRL and /or OCSP to 127.0.0.1 in your hosts file

 

3. Execute [certutil.exe -urlcache * delete] to remove all cached CRLs

 

4. Start your browser and tell it to HTTPS:// to the site

 

5. It will take some time trying to check the CRL/OCSP from the non-existing server

 

6. After that you are on the site without any warnings! Not really what I expected?!

 

Firefox gives the same results and only Google Chrome gives us a warning…

What if the same happens with Code Signing? Interesting case we have!
