Umbrella Intelligent Proxy SSL Decryption 516 Upstream Certificate CN Mismatch

I started getting the dreaded 516 Upstream CN Mismatch error this afternoon for a few users. It is odd because on the page itself, there is no SSL error. Checking the certificate itself, the CN matches fine. I re-installed the Umbrella root CA just in case, but still get the error. 

 

The connection is "secure" according to the browser:

Found this help article https://support.umbrella.com/hc/en-us/articles/16794331853588-How-do-I-resolve-the-error-516-Upstrea... and the SAN matches as well:

I did turn intelligent proxy and ssl decryption off for a short while ~5 hours ago or so trying to diagnose a website issue, but other than that didn't make any changes. Am I missing something obvious here? I did re-download the root CA since re-enabling ssl decryption and imported it on the machine I'm testing on (and took the above screenshots from) and imported to the trusted root CA store, but I think the cert was the same.

The issue seems to have fixed itself once again which is super frustrating as I'd rather know what went wrong so I could fix it but the problem seems to be resolved.

It may be beneficial to reach out to Cisco Umbrella support, especially if you have already followed the article on the 516 error https://umbrella.cisco.com/support

Thanks. Unfortunately, I'm leasing the system from AT&T which has been an absolute nightmare. As such, Cisco/Meraki just sends me their way and they have been abysmal when trying to get help hence I try to fix things myself first, then come here if I can't. 

 

At any rate, it fixed itself which is frustrating but at least it's fixed. 

 

Thanks for the reply.
