Two websites above ssl certificate was expired. But you can adjust your date-time to 02/02/2020 or before that time to access those sites normally
## Platform(s) Affected:
https:// api.happytools.dev
## Steps To Reproduce:
1. https://api.happytools.dev/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword and forgot password for user `api`
1. Go to https://maildev.happytools.dev to get reset password link and set new password for user `api` (I did not try to do that)
1. After changing password for user `api`, we can control wordpress cms and may upload plugins/themes contain backdoor or harmful scripts to this server
