Clone SSL Cert Using New CSR
Greetings,
I have been looking for a way to clone an existing wildcard certificate using a new CSR. It can be done - see https://www.digicert.com/ssl-support/duplicate-ssl-certificates.htm
I have reviewed OpenSSL and "googled" but have not come up with an answer. Note that this is not a reissue - the cert properties are retained.
Thanks,
Rick

Clone or duplication of wildcard SSL certificate is permitted based on the tool that has been provided by the CA. As on your link that you provided, the CA is Digicert which they have set their issuer CA to allow that to happen. If your wildcard is public issued CA cert, then you might want to contact your vendor to see if they provide that function inside their portal.

Don't you have original certificate and private key combination? Or the option to export existing current certificate from where it is installed?
I guess you have created self signed certificate with openssl and I doubt you have created CRL. So even if you create a new certificate the first one will not be revoked.
I'm not that familiar with openssl, but I doubt that it has duplicate certificate option.
I think that some public CA stores (like digicert) have "certificate duplicate" options, but probably some are calling them "free reissue"
