Is WikiTree [Plus] no longer secure?

Question

I was trying to add an update I made for this month's Sourcerers Challenge and got the following message:

Your connection is not private

Attackers might be trying to steal your information from wikitree.sdms.si (for example, passwords, messages, or credit cards). Learn more

NET::ERR_CERT_DATE_INVALID

Then when I clicked on Learn more I was told....

This server could not prove that it is wikitree.sdms.si; its security certificate expired yesterday. This may be caused by a misconfiguration or an attacker intercepting your connection. Your computer's clock is currently set to Monday, June 24, 2019. Does that look right? If not, you should correct your system's clock and then refresh this page.

Proceed to wikitree.sdms.si (unsafe)

Has anyone else received this message and is WikiTree aware of a security problem?

Comments

It's working again. The check must have cleared. <grin>

Answer 1

Certificate didn't renew automatically. It is updated now. It may take a day to update on some browser.

Answer 2

Make sure it's https.// and not http.//

Answer 3

Looks like the server hosting wikitree+ is not defaulting to HTTPS. I don't know if this is a mistake, or if it never did.

Answer 4

Have a look at this post:
