Fix: Net ERR_CERT_WEAK_SIGNATURE_ALGORITHM – Google Chrome

Fix: Net ERR_CERT_WEAK_SIGNATURE_ALGORITHM – Google Chrome

You may receive a warning message in Google Chrome while trying to browse to an HTTPS website that has a weak installed SSL certificate. This error usually happens when a stand alone certificate is issue to a website on a trusted domain (usually local intranet domains).





 

Your connection is not private

Attackers might be trying to steal your information from (for example, passwords, messages, or credit cards). NET::ERR_CERT_WEAK_SIGNATURE_ALGORITHM

 

To bypass the Google Chrome message, Disable the SSL Scan Option in your Anti-Virus software.

Bitdefender ssl scan option disable

 

You can still proceed to the website by clicking Advanced in the Google Chrome window prompt, however it is highly recommended the website administrator update the SSL certificate installed on the website and make it fully trusted with your domain name suffix.

I had the same problem, and I had already disabled the SSL setting in Bitfender. I solved it by authorizing the proxy in the settings part of Bitfender. It seems to be working for now. Hope that helps.

You get the error because you're behind a firewall, and the firewall has a self signed certificate. Chrome wants you to have a better certificate. HI'll bet most comments have been made by people behind a company firewall with a self signed certificate installed.
Good job Chrome for seeing the weak ass security.

I was able to fix this issue by disabling the scan SSL option in the bit defender antivirus software on a the customer's computer. a similar function in another antivirus software is likely the cause of the issues.
