SHA-1 certificate expiration

End of Life date

Per product (some products expired January 27, 2020)

Details

ESET has obtained replacement certificates to sign binaries of its Windows products because ESET’s SHA-1 code signing certificates are expiring in a short time.

Operating systems or ESET products without SHA-2 support might stop working.

See the following page for details on how to resolve it: SHA-2 required compatibility

ESET product issue

Legacy products startup issue

End of Life date

February 7, 2020

Details

ESET has identified that our kernel has a problem with verification of the timestamp of an already expired certificate (expired by 7th Feb 2020). This method fails and our modules in older, legacy versions, are declared as untrusted and therefore are not loaded. This mechanism ensures that no untrusted library is loaded.

As a result, the affected versions fail to load modules (HIPS, Update, Device Control, Web and Email protection) and are not functional, therefore the protection is not functional.
