Apple Blocks eMudhra Certificates; macOS Command-Line Tools Update Pending
Apple has blocked 12 digital certificates issued by eMudhra due to weak cryptographic keys, enhancing security across its devices. While most users are automatically protected in apps like Safari and Mail, some macOS command-line tools such as curl, git, Python, and OpenSSL may still accept these compromised certificates. Apple plans to release a future macOS software update to address this gap, ensuring command-line tools also block the affected certificates without requiring user intervention.
