https://askubuntu.com/questions/497923/fake-usertrust-com-certificates-in-chrome which links to https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2011/03/iranian-hackers-obtain-fraudulent-https March 23, 2011 On March 15th, an HTTPS/TLS Certificate Authority (CA) was tricked into issuing fraudulent certificates that posed a dire risk to Internet security. As to why they're marked as expired - maybe to make sure those certs can't be used even if your clock is off by years? i dunno...
