How do I fix wget on an HTTP url not trusted errors in kali?
If you are using Debian or Ubuntu, install the ca-certificates
package:
$ sudo apt-get install ca-certificates
If you don't care about checking the validity of the certificate, use the --no-check-certificate
option:
$ wget --no-check-certificate https://download/url
Note: The second option is not recommended because of the possibility of a man-in-the-middle attack.
Per TFM for wget use the
--no-check-certificate
option.
"Don't check the server certificate against the available certificate authorities. Also don't require the URL host name to match the common name presented by the certificate."
