What is the CP/CPS certificate profile bug?

GoDaddy has determined that a number of SSL certificates were issued incorrectly and is re-issuing them. The incorrectly issued certificates were revoked on October 21, 2026. Once these certificates were revoked, visitors to your website may see security warnings, and your site may become inaccessible until a new certificate is installed. You may need to take action right away to ensure your newly re-issued certificate is installed. Here's how to check.

  1. Go to your GoDaddy product page.
  2. Select Manage All next to SSL Certificates.
  3. In the list of SSL certificates, select the first one. If you need to take action, one of three messages appears in the header, as in this example:
    ssl certificate alert message
  4. Depending on the message, take the action described below.
