Your connection is not private / NET :: ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID; what can it be?


Recommended Posts

A question for you guys :cool:

 

My parents get the following message on their notebooks (two, each with Windows 10, 2004 update installed and ESET Internet Security 13.2.16.0) when they are trying to log on via their browser (I checked it both on Google Chrome and Edge):

I know that on Edge no extensions are used. For Chrome I'm not 100% sure.

The strange thing is... when I create a hotspot via my phone (different ISP) I get the same message.

ESET has been totally uninstalled, still with this same message.

When accessing www.rabobank.nl from an iPad (iPad OS 13.6 installed) on both Chrome and Safari the same message is shown.

 

When I go to www.rabobank.nl on my notebook, I can access the site. Not warnings and no messages. I also do run Win 10, 2004 update and ESET Internet Security 13.2.16.0). I have the same ISP for broadband as my parents.

 

What can this situation be? Is it ISP-related (in that case I should have the same issues as well I guess)?!

Might it be router-related (that's the only difference in setup between my parents and myself)?

I also think it's strange that the security certificate is somehow coming from - or the assumption is given: divafe.pass.bundesliga.com

 

When I click to continue a warning "Access denied" is shown and the whole page is not accessible.

It's a problem with the site. Looks like that sites security certificate is no good.

I've been to the site, checked the cert, seems fine to me.  What are you basing this diagnosis on?

It is to do with security certificates, in earlier versions of Chrome/Chromium/Edge a single certificate was allowed to cover all subdomains, in the latest versions it's far more picky to avoid cross site trust issues.

Lots of sites still don't have the new style certificates and if you trust the site it's probably ok to click through the error message using the advanced link on the error page (i.e. it's no less safe than it was before the change).

The key is for rabobank.nl - the user is going to rabobank.nl

No subdomains in play here...

 

Are you certain?

So is there a way to delete (from my parents computer) certificates relating to rabobank.nl (or maybe even all certificates) and then go to this site again and de new ones 'will be newly loaded in' or something?! (or am I saying something stupid here).

Like I said... on my computers is there no error whatsoever... and also I and running the latest versions of Chrome, Edge (and Brave).

 

But than again... why is this present on Windows PC as well as iPad (different OS'es, different browsers)?!

Same (WiFi-)network they're connecting, although on their Windows PC with my iPhone as hotspot on a different carrier the same error occurs (so I guess not network/ISP related than).

While his diagnosis is wrong, the sub domain is www.*
 

Which is still valid for this cert.

Your best bet is to actually go to the site despite the warnings and examine the cert info. Don’t enter any info.

That's not possible... going to the website (via Ignore) gives a new page with 'Access denied' and an error code. Nothing can be done there.... just a plain, simple html-website thingy.

almost sounds like it's being blocked by your ISP then or something.

Not specifically the ISP, because when I use my cell carrier (KPN), a different one than their ISP (Ziggo), I still get the same message on their notebooks.

So I think not ISP related (though cannot confirm 100%).

 

I haven't yet tried my notebook on their WiFi-network. Or my mum's and dad's notebook on my WiFi. Might be something to try....

 

EDIT:

I'll try to obtain the screenshots.... :)

oh, that's even more telling if you get the same issue on a cellphone that's not even on the same network.

 

their web dev must have broke or forgot to renew something. if that's the case there's not much you'll be able to do unless you know of a support email for them you can contact.

Well the thing is... on my notebooks at home (on my home wifi-network; different than my parents') this www.rabobank.nl site is working as it should be.

Also with Windows 10, May 2020 update & the same version of ESET Internet Security installed (as well as with Chrome and Edge).

 

So for some reason it looks like it's all machine related at my parents (both 2 notebooks of theirs & and iPad)... :wacko:

Have you tried incognito with ad blockers turned off?

Not showing any issues with going to that site..

Cert checks out fine.. Both FF (79) and Edge

It's possible that ESET's SSL filtering is causing the issue. Try disabling it by going to Settings--Advanced Setup--Web And Email--SSL/TLS and unchecking all options there. And finally restart WIndows.

Hello,

From the error message, it sounds like there was a URL on the bank's web page, divafe.pass.bundesliga.com, which was trying to serve up content for radobank.nl.  I cannot reproduce the error now, so I am guessing whatever occurred has since been fixed by the bank's IT department.  From looking at https://www.eset.com/nl/over/contact/, ESET's technical support can be contacted at +31 (0)184 647 730, so if the problem is still happening, I would suggest calling them for further assistance.

Regards,

Aryeh Goretsky

 

Turns out it was ISP related.

For some reason the modem hadn't been rebooted for 26x days and kinda 'hung' on something.

A reset fixed the issue and everything is working again as it should be. And rabobank.nl can be reached and visited again.

 

Thx for the help and replies!

    • Doogee and Ulefone regularly release phones with 10k-25k mAh batteries, but those are bricks. I don't understand how they could make it only weigh 220 grams with a battery that size.
    • Windows 10 quietly gets one more year of support and updates by Taras Buria Windows 10 reached its end of life at the end of 2025. Microsoft kicked off the Extended Security Updates program, aimed at giving regular consumers one more year of security-only updates. By doing so, Microsoft gave users more time and money to update their computers to a newer operating system or compatible hardware. Now, with the end of the Extended Security Updates program quickly approaching, Microsoft is making an important adjustment. Users discovered that the official support article for the program now lists a new end-of-support date: The Extended Security Updates program is not a new concept. It has been an official way for business consumers to continue receiving critical updates for unsupported Microsoft products for many years. However, all this time, it was a business-only, paid feature. With Windows 10, Microsoft brought ESU to regular consumers, allowing them to get security updates for Windows 10 past October 2025 essentially for free. When Windows 10 was approaching the end of support, many guessed that Microsoft might adjust its support timelines, and this is exactly what seems to be happening. Of course, Microsoft would love everyone to switch to new computers, such as its latest Surface devices, but in the days of ever-growing hardware prices, not everyone is lucky enough to have money for a new PC. Leaving hundreds of millions of customers with a Windows version that no longer receives security updates is a major risk that Microsoft is not willing to take. If you have a Windows 10 PC to enroll in the Extended Security Updates program, check out this guide to learn how to do so.
    • Sony announces Bungie layoffs that will affect "significant number of employees" by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Sony today announced that major layoffs are happening at its first-party studio Bungie, the developer that has spawned series like Halo, Destiny, and Marathon over the past decades. The news arrives just weeks after Bungie delivered the final update to Destiny 2, and it's that team being hit with the layoffs the most. CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment Hermen Hulst revealed the staff reduction today, calling it "painful news." "Over the past several months, together with Bungie leadership, we reviewed the studio’s long-term direction, development priorities, resource needs, and role within our broader portfolio strategy," said Hulst, explaining the decision. "We explored multiple alternatives before concluding that a reduction was necessary to align the studio’s resources with its current priorities and long-term goals." The layoffs will be hitting "a significant number of employees" across most of the Destiny franchise development team. It doesn't look like Sony is planning to continue the series following Destiny 2's sunsetting update. The studio is said to be in early stages of looking at other projects to pivot to, but it's said that keeping the size of the team at current levels is no longer feasible. "We know this decision has a profound impact on the people affected, their families, friends, and teammates," said Bungie leadership in a separate message on social media. "While these changes are necessary to best position the studio now and for the future, that does not lessen the difficulty of this moment or the impact it has on those affected." At the same time, "some" of the Marathon development team are also affected by the layoffs. The recently released multiplayer-only extraction shooter title hasn't seen a big boom of players either, but the company is reportedly hoping that the live service experience will pick up players with future updates.
    • Microsoft adds reusable skills and finance data connectors to Copilot in Excel by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft is giving Copilot in Excel a collection of new features aimed squarely at finance teams. The update introduces reusable instructions for common tasks, connections to services such as FactSet and Morningstar, and a better way to review what Copilot intends to do before it starts changing a workbook. The most interesting addition is 'Skills' finally coming to Copilot in Excel. Skills let companies teach Copilot how to handle a recurring process, so employees do not need to write the same detailed prompt every month. Users can create skills that can specify the steps Copilot should follow, along with the required layout, formulas, and formatting. Microsoft says users can create their own skills by saving a SKILL.md file in OneDrive. The file is written using Markdown and tells Copilot when and how to perform the task. Once it is available, a user can select the skill in the Copilot pane or mention it in a prompt using the @ symbol. There is also a library of prebuilt finance skills for customers who do not want to create their own. Microsoft plans to let developers distribute additional skills through the Microsoft Marketplace and the Microsoft 365 Admin Center, with LSEG, Ramp, Rogo, samaya.ai, Velixo, and Vena among the first partners involved. The company says that it is also expanding the external data that Copilot can access from inside Excel. New connectors are being added for CB Insights, Daloopa, FactSet, Morningstar, PitchBook, and S&P Global data through technology developed by Kensho. There is a catch, however. Accessing these services may require a separate subscription from the relevant data provider, so a Microsoft 365 Copilot licence will not necessarily unlock all of them. FactSet is also only available in preview for now, with general availability planned for July. Microsoft is also trying to make Copilot’s workbook edits easier to inspect. Users can switch to a planning mode that shows which sheets, cell ranges, formulas, and assumptions Copilot intends to work with before it begins making changes. Once the work is complete, the Show Changes pane can distinguish edits made by Copilot from those made by human collaborators. The update continues Microsoft’s push to turn Excel Copilot from a chatbot into an agent that can carry out longer tasks. The company previously added an Agent Mode capable of planning and completing multi-step Excel work. Microsoft also recently acquired financial AI startup Fintool, another indication that finance is becoming a key target for its Excel AI strategy. Prebuilt skills, personalization, workbook rules, external connectors, planning mode, and Copilot attribution in Show Changes are generally available to Microsoft 365 Copilot customers using Excel on the web, Windows, and macOS. Custom skills are initially available to Microsoft 365 Insiders on Windows and Mac starting today. Microsoft plans to make them generally available across Windows, Mac, and the web over the next month. Partner-built skills are expected during the third quarter of the year. Availability may still differ depending on region and licensing.
