The issue with a certificate chain that was issued by an untrusted authority is that the trustworthiness and authenticity of the certificate cannot be established, as the issuing authority has not been deemed reliable by a trusted third party. This can lead to potential security risks, as attackers could potentially impersonate the entity using the certificate and carry out malicious activities such as phishing, man-in-the-middle attacks, or unauthorized access to sensitive information.
