test: renew the expired localhost cert fixture - #40488
Conversation
test/js/node/http/fixtures/openssl_localhost.crt expired on 2026-08-25 12:32 UTC, failing test-http-should-accept-custom-certs-when-provided on every platform. Regenerated the CA and leaf with a 100-year validity. No-Verification-Needed: test fixture only

LGTM — straightforward test-fixture regeneration for an expired cert.
What was reviewed:
- Verified the new leaf validates against the new CA (
openssl verify→ OK) and the private key's public half matches the cert. - Confirmed SAN still includes
DNS:localhostand validity now runs to 2126. - Checked both consumers (
test-http-should-accept-custom-certs-when-provided.ts,test-http-should-error-with-faulty-args.ts) — they only load key/cert/ca with no assertions on cert contents, and the key remains unencrypted so the existingpassphraseoption stays a no-op.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
This PR replaces three test fixture files under test/js/node/http/fixtures/: openssl_localhost.crt, openssl_localhost.key, and openssl_localhost_ca.pem. The previous leaf cert expired 2026-08-25, breaking two parallel HTTPS tests with CERT_HAS_EXPIRED. The new CA and leaf are regenerated with ~100-year validity (Not After: 2126-08-01).
Security risks
None. These are self-signed test fixtures used only by two local HTTPS tests that spin up a server on port: 0 and connect to localhost. No production code, no auth/crypto logic, no trust store changes.
Level of scrutiny
Low. This is a mechanical fixture refresh with no source changes. I verified with openssl that (1) the leaf chains to the CA, (2) the private key matches the leaf's public key, and (3) the SAN retains DNS:localhost (plus a new 127.0.0.1 IP SAN, harmless). Grep confirms only two tests reference these fixtures, and neither asserts on certificate metadata (subject, issuer, key size), so the switch from a 3072-bit mkcert CA to a 2048-bit "bun test CA" is inert.
Other factors
The new key, like the old one, is an unencrypted PKCS#8 blob, so the passphrase: "123123123" in both tests remains an ignored option — no behavioral change there. No prior review comments on the PR.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The renewed test certificate is not valid until 17:44:05 UTC on August 25, 2026, so the affected test can still fail with CERT_NOT_YET_VALID before then; merge should wait for that gap to be removed or explicitly accept the delay. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 3 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)

Remove the certificate validity gap.
If the test runs between 2026-08-25 12:32 UTC and 2026-08-25 17:44:05 UTC, rejectUnauthorized: true still rejects this certificate with CERT_NOT_YET_VALID. Line 4 sets notBefore to 2026-08-25 17:44:05Z. Set notBefore no later than the old expiry, or land the fixture after 17:44:05 UTC.
