SSL certificate problem: unhandled critical extension
The Cloudflare SSL tools at https://github.com/cloudflare/cfssl might help. Here's what it shows for one of the example Snake Oil certs:
-
Private CA management
I've used this in the past and it worked great. https://github.com/cloudflare/cfssl
- Linux Certificate Authority root stores have a too simple view of 'trust'
- Creating an internal Certificate Authority in 2022 that is accepted by modern web browsers.

How to create users in Kubernetes
The first step is to create the source key that represents our user. This key is created using a tool like openssl but another popular tool to use is cfssl, created by Cloudflare. Some folks think cfssl is easier to use, and it definitely looks easier to script. But for this example we will use openssl. You can also choose to create the key using a number of different algorithms. For this example we will use ED25519.
