Description (last modified by greiner)
Background
Starting with Chrome 41 SHA-1 is considered insecure by Google who has deprecated SHA-1 in Chrome and now considers certificates that use SHA-1 "secure, but with minor errors". If we will create a new SHA-1 certificate next year this would degrade to "affirmatively insecure".
What to change
Replace the existing certificates in the certificate chain with ones that use SHA-2 for eyeo.com, www.eyeo.com, intraforum.adblockplus.org, issues.adblockplus.org and any other domain that's not covered by the adblockplus.org certificate.

Mozilla published and update to its roadmap for phasing out SHA-1 certificates. Any such certificates that have "valid before" date be after 2016-01-01 or "valid after" date be after 2017-01-01 (or even 2016-07-01) will be considered "untrusted".
I just noticed that this issue also affects eyeo.com which makes our company look a bit untrustworthy to regular people who visit our homepage.
