Hi Michael,

Do you use DBM or DBI? Only the DBI module can handle expired certificates. We determine on the fly the state of the certificate. The DBM never implemented such a behaviour.

I did a quick look into the sources, and it seems, that expired
certificates are that, which have a status of EXPIRED_CERTIFICATE
in the database. But how and when is this status updated ?

Only DBI, the status in the database is always VALID. If you load the certificate from the database then we determine on the fly whether it is expired or valid. An extra state in the database is not required.
