SSL error, invalid certificate when Linode bucket has . 'dot'

Due to the SSL certificate is pointing to only the endpoint and it is not a wildcard certificate, SSL is invalid.

Without using dot, DNS resolution for cloudflare CDN fails.

Creating a bucket with dot "images.app.com" has certificate SSL invalid.

do you guys have any suggestion or Linode team might need to solve it?

Yes, the certificates for our Object Storage endpoints are only good for one domain level. The dots in your bucket name is leading to each part being read as a subdomain. So your options would be to use a different bucket name without dots or to set up a custom domain with your own SSL Certificate.

To help you do that, I'll link you to our official guide and a great Community Site post about it:

Configure a Custom Domain (with a TLS/SSL Certificate)

How to use custom domain for object storage

Hopefully one of those solutions works for you.
