Subject Alternative Name in CSR

Currently there is no way to create a CSR with a SAN. Google Chrome is now looking for a SAN instead of CN


Error: "Subject Alternative Name Missing" or NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID or "Your connection is not private"
During Transport Layer Security (TLS) connections, Chrome browser checks to make sure the connection to the site is using a valid, trusted server certificate.
https://support.google.com/chrome/a/answer/7391219?hl=en
For Chrome 58 and later, only the subjectAlternativeName extension, not commonName, is used to match the domain name and site certificate. The certificate subject alternative name can be a domain name or IP address. If the certificate doesn't have the correct subjectAlternativeName extension, users get a NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID error letting them know that the connection isn't private. If the certificate is missing a subjectAlternativeName extension, users see a warning in the Security panel in Chrome DevTools that lets them know the subject alternative name is missing.


Use Case:

Clients will get an error when going to a business website
Subject Alternative Name Missing
alarming them and may not continue to the website
