I've now raised this issue with the infrastructure team. The current hosting arrangements for bugs.python.org were put in place when the PSF didn't have any on-call system administrators of its own, but now that we do, it may be time to migrate that service to a location where we can switch to a more appropriate SSL certificate.

Just to relay Noah's response: it's actually not the hosting that prevents installation of a proper certificate, it's the limitation that the certificate we could deploy would include "python.org" as a server name, which is considered risky regardless of where the service is hosted. There are solutions to that as well, of course.

Regards, Martin
