I just ran across an LE certificate that has dozens of weird Common Names and dozens of weird Subject Alternate Names and the website in question is listed as one of the SAN domains. Just wondering if this is normal for a certificate? I thought that certificates were supposed to be “owned” by a sin…

[image] mushu: Does this mean a single company “owns” every one of those domains? I think not… There are exact 100 domain names. That may be created by a hosting company. So 50 - 100 customers share the hosting and the certificate.
