  Users attempting to access my blog get warning: Your connection isn’t private
  Attackers might be trying to steal your information from cameosandcarousels.com (for example, passwords, messages, or credit cards). I get similar result when I try to access my wordpress account for update. What’s happening? What should be done?

  NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID

  I am getting this same warning when I go into my own page as well as other wordpress people I follow.
  Here is the unsecure warning I get each time.

  Your connection is not fully secure
  This site uses an outdated security configuration, which may expose your information (for example, passwords, messages or credit cards) when it is sent to this site.
  NET::ERR_SSL_OBSOLETE_VERSION
  The connection used to load this site used TLS 1.0 or TLS 1.1, which are deprecated and will be disabled in the future. Once disabled, users will be prevented from loading this site. The server should enable TLS 1.2 or later.

  Proceed to natureschild122.wordpress.com (unsafe)
  How do I fix this?

  I went to BlueHost.com which powers my WordPress. The chat indicates that when I responded to WordPress notification of need to update plug-ins, my site incorporated something from CloudFlare CDN which caused the incompatibility problem. BlueHost corrected error and is in process of updating my site which should be accessible in 1 to 4 hours. Once again: I should have learned by now: Do Not Update any program that is working!

  I do not use a host as I am not in business. My blog is in WordPress. I also get this message when I visit a friends WordPress blog directly from my computer.
