"Trusted for TLS" means the store includes the root with the server-authentication trust bit (Mozilla "Websites", Apple serverAuth, Microsoft Server Authentication EKU). Microsoft "NotBefore" means only certificates issued before a cutoff date are still trusted. "Constrained" means the store applies extra restrictions.

Intermediate CAs issued by this root

The CCADB lists 10 intermediate CA certificates signed directly by e-Szigno TLS Root CA 2023: 7 currently valid, 3 expired and 0 revoked (revoked includes those whose parent was revoked).

Showing 10 of 10: valid certificates first, newest first. Each name links to its crt.sh entry by SHA-256; an arrow marks a cross-certificate for another root on this site.

Cross-signed versions

1 certificate(s) in the CCADB have the same subject and public key as e-Szigno TLS Root CA 2023 but a different issuer. A server can send one of them so that clients which trust the issuing root, but not e-Szigno TLS Root CA 2023, can still build a chain.

CRL and OCSP addresses

In the root certificate

e-Szigno TLS Root CA 2023 itself contains no CRL Distribution Points and no OCSP (Authority Information Access) extension. That is normal for a root: clients trust it directly and do not check its own revocation status.

Full CRL this CA publishes (CCADB)

  • http://crl.e-szigno.hu/tlsrootca2023.crl

Used by the intermediates it issued

Addresses found in the CRL Distribution Points and OCSP fields of the 7 valid intermediates signed by e-Szigno TLS Root CA 2023; the number in brackets is how many of them use each address.

  • CRL: http://tlsrootca2023-crl.e-szigno.hu/tlsrootca2023.crl (7)
  • OCSP: http://tlsrootca2023-ocsp.e-szigno.hu (7)

What happens when it expires

e-Szigno TLS Root CA 2023 is valid until 2038-07-17, about 11.7 years after this data snapshot (2026-11-10). From that day, browsers and operating systems that check trust-anchor expiry stop accepting chains that end at this root, so any certificate that can only chain to it fails validation. Android is a known exception: it does not enforce the expiry date of trust anchors.

Check whether your device trusts it

Each platform keeps its own root store. The commands below look up e-Szigno TLS Root CA 2023 by common name (e-Szigno TLS Root CA 2023) or fingerprint. The store status in each heading comes from the CCADB snapshot; your device can differ if it is out of date or managed by an administrator.

macOS (Apple store: Not included)

Search the system roots keychain by common name. -Z prints the SHA-256 hash, which must match the fingerprint on the last line.

security find-certificate -a -c "e-Szigno TLS Root CA 2023" -Z \
  /System/Library/Keychains/SystemRootCertificates.keychain | grep "SHA-256"
# SHA-256 hash: B49141502D00663D740F2E7EC340C52800962666121A36D09CF7DD2B90384FB4

Windows (Microsoft store: Included · Trusted for TLS)

Windows identifies roots by SHA-1 thumbprint. It installs third-party roots on demand through Automatic Root Certificates Update, so "not found" can also mean the root has not been needed yet; certutil -generateSSTFromWU roots.sst downloads Microsoft's full list.

Linux (ca-certificates follows Mozilla: Included · Trusted for TLS)

Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora and RHEL build their ca-certificates package from Mozilla's root store. Use trust list on p11-kit systems, or search the PEM bundle on Debian and Ubuntu.

# Fedora / RHEL / Arch (p11-kit)
trust list --filter=ca-anchors | grep -iF -A2 "e-Szigno TLS Root CA 2023"
# Debian / Ubuntu (ca-certificates)
openssl crl2pkcs7 -nocrl -certfile /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt \
  | openssl pkcs7 -print_certs -noout | grep -iF "e-Szigno TLS Root CA 2023"

Java

Java ships its own cacerts keystore; JDK 9 and later accept -cacerts and the default store password is changeit. Search for the SHA-256 fingerprint in colon form.

keytool -list -cacerts -storepass changeit | grep -i "B4:91:41:50:2D:00:66:3D:74:0F:2E:7E:C3:40:C5:28:00:96:26:66:12:1A:36:D0:9C:F7:DD:2B:90:38:4F:B4"

Android

Android's system store is maintained by Google separately from the four CCADB stores above. Open Settings → Security & privacy → More security settings → Encryption & credentials → Trusted credentials → System (menu names vary by vendor and version) and look for Microsec Ltd. → e-Szigno TLS Root CA 2023.

Which root does my site chain to?

List the chain your server sends and compare the last issuer with this root; the fingerprint check confirms a local copy.
