DigiCert is the CA issuing the signing certificate for Secure Execution host key documents. This certificate is used for the verification of the host key document validity. Recently, DigiCert has changed the root CA certificate used for issuance of the signing certificates.
As genprotimg is checking the CA serial, the verification of the chain of trust will fail. As a workaround, it is possible to disable certificate verification, but this is not recommended because it makes it easier to provide a fake host key document.
Since the previously issued host key documents are expiring in April 2022, it is necessary to fix genprotimg to accept the newly issued host key documents.
