Hi everyone,

It is about the step the public Certificate Authorities (CAs) are
shifting to a stricter, single-purpose EKU policy. I tried to look
around, but I didn't find anything about whether this topic has
already come up in the Flink community discussions.

https://news.apache.org/foundation/entry/the-public-ca-clientauth-eku-sunset-what-apache-software-deployers-need-to-know

Briefly, the public CAs will no longer issue multi-purpose
certificates,those that currently can be used for both clientAuth and
serverAuth simultaneously, and the browsers will not accept them
either in the future.

This obviously only affects users who use public CA certificates. It
can actually be worked around by using self-signed certificates for
internal security if needed.

Do you think there will be any changes related to this in Flink?

Best,
Gyula
