I vaguely remember reading something about leaking your private network setup if you used Let’s Encrypt to generate your certificates.
Because of this when I installed my reverse proxy with caddy to handle my selfhosted home network I configured it to generate the certificates locally.
But this comes with the issue of the annoying warnings of the browsers plus being unable to connect to those devices/services which can’t ignore it.
Am I being too paranoid? Is there any real concern about generating the certificates with Let’s Encrypt for addresses which I don’t intend to have outside my private network?
I don’t see why you couldn’t just get a wildcard certificate that doesn’t include any hostnames, if you handle your traffic on a single Caddy reverse proxy anyways.
Yeah, solution is just to get a wildcard cert.

Ah, got it!
I’ll look into it, AFAIK caddy autogenerates all certs for each site, so probably I’ll have to manually create and import the wildcard one.
