#CommonName
I've been Emily Obscure'Lastnamewithanapostrophe for a long time I am not giving that up.

Currently caught between hyphenating and making my current last name a middle name and making everyone refer to me with full name but Emily Obscure'Lastnamewithanapostrophe-CommonName is tempting...

CVE-2026-117548 - 389-ds-base: 389-ds-base: null pointer dereference via modifydn using an attribute's schema alias name causes denial of service
A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in 389-ds-base.

Well, it's not a #commonname but I call it the 'ouch, my bum' thistle. Dwarf thistle, Cirsium acaule. @wildflowerhour.bsky.social @bsbibotany.bsky.social #wildflowerhour

Feverfew is a slightly quirky #CommonName. An archeolophyte that was, unsurprisingly, introduced centuries ago as a medibical herb. Here growing as a #PavementPlant on the Ribble - #WildflowerHour

My prize for weird #CommonName: Hemp Agrimony (Eupatorium cannabinum, #DaisyFamily). Not related to Hemp or Agrimony (tho the leaves look a bit illegal) and not used to cure bad eyes, which 'Agrimony' stems from. Looks wacky too, like a surgical pink Big Bird @bsbibotany.bsky.social #wildflowerhour

So, how about Hybrid Monkeyflower for a quirky #CommonName?
Erythranthe x robertsii.
An invasive, cultivated hybrid involving two non-native species that is particularly common in upland habitats, & aldo the lowlands in NW Britain. Milldale, Peak District.

An exciting discovery for me this week - growing in between my raspberries, a lovely patch of self-seeded Strawberry Clover.

Not a quirky #commonname but perfectly descriptive - I love these swollen pink orbs, and very happy to find they seem to like my heavy clay soil. 🩷

Just when I think I understand, a new curve ball comes my way. There's nothing wrong with the commonName on the certificate! Why are you complaining?

決済サービスの話。会員番号から生成するバーコードで決済だと危なすぎるから、決済ごとに作るQRを鍵情報で確認しつつそれで支払うようにする。あとサーバ系が今のままだとDNSプロキシをすげ替えられうるのでファームウェア更新。サーバ証明書からsubjecyAltNamegaarebaかcommonNameの、dNSNameとサーバのFQDNを照らし合わせる。あと、「このメールアドレスは登録済みです」って言っちゃうとパスワードリストをクリーニングされるよ。

lol the NHL API changing a field from “name” to “commonName” unexpectedly is just silly

• provenance text The critical chronological log tracing historical transaction owners, confiscations, and migratory vectors of the text.
• commonName varchar(255) Standardized uniform titles used to isolate historical legal declarations (e.g., "The Donation of Baldwin I").

Today's question of the day: Why do vendors think they can just make arbitrary changes to long-ratified standards? Found out today apparently PAN-OS doesn't support more than 30 characters in the CommonName field when it generates CSRs for TLS Inspection. Less than half the allowed standard...

Chrome, certificates and missing_subjectAltNames

Chrome, certificates and missing_subjectAltNames
Google has been actively trying to ensure certificate security especially in the last months. Sometimes this created quite some buzz in the IT World, e.g. when Symantecs policies came into the focus. Current version 58 of Google Chrome has again adjusted the certificate policy. Certificates provide two ways to store hostnames: CommonName and SubjectAltName (SAN). RFC 2818 specified in 2000 that CommonName should be deprecated, which Chrome now complies to. Other browsers are currently still accepting the CommonName, which is mostly used by selfsigned certificates, as in our case :/ Users who wanted to access our internal sites encountered error messages and were forced to use quick and dirty workarounds, such as using a Windows registry „hack“: Open a cmd-Shell as Administrator and enter: reg add HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREPoliciesGoogleChrome /v EnableCommonNameFallbackForLocalAnchors /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f which reactivates the fallback to CommonName As this is just a temporary „solution“, you should issue an RFC 2818 conform certificate. This can be realized by using a complete and compliant certificate signing request (CSR). You can either use a specially designed *.conf File for this or simply adapt the following shell command: openssl req -new-key endpoint.com.key -sha256 -nodes  -subj '/C=US/ST=New York/L=New York/O=End Point/OU=Hosting Team/CN=www.endpoint.com/          emailAddress=administrative-not-existent-address@our-awesome-domain.com/ […]

Intriguing as it is, this evite for the "Kris has a BIG D*CK!!!" party in Alameda, Calif., was surely intended for someone else. #commonname

I haven't been involved in editing that article or in discussions over its title, but it may be that reliable sources primarily refer to her killing as a murder. (See the "COMMONNAME" mention in the red box, which refers to en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikiped...)

"Assassination of" titles are usually determined by sources overwhelmingly using the term (aka the "COMMONNAME" policy mentioned in the red box), with added guidance from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikiped...

Is there a single other game page on Wikipedia that uses the "COMMONNAME" policy? No one calls it "Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII", but that's the page name.

My 2¢:
Google became an Instituição de Pagamento (IP) in Brazil to operate within Open Finance. Likely, regulations require IPs to have an ICP-Brasil certificate. While IP operations might not depend on it, ICP-Brasil issued the certificate with commonName = google.com. The damage is done.
A Brazilian CA trusted only by Microsoft has issued a certificate for google.com | Hacker News
