Subject: [PATCH qemu-server master+stable-bookworm] check efi vars: promote message about missing MS 2023 certs to warning
Date: Tue, 21 Apr 2026 10:45:33 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260421084622.20641-1-f.ebner@proxmox.com> (raw)
The expiration date of the MS 2011 UEFI certificates is June 2026 and
is getting closer, so the message about missing MS 2023 certificates
deserves to be a warning.
