self signed certificate in certificate chain error in 1.0.0-rc4

[rudyflores]

Describe the bug
A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

I receive the following error:

request to https://example?pretty=true failed, reason: self signed certificate in certificate chain

this was not appearing on previous versions of the kubernetes client, I also noticed it on 0.20.0 but had to upgrade due to vulnerability issues with request, is there a way to get rid of this error? I am logging into my cluster and generating a token just fine which used to work.

** Client Version **
e.g. 0.12.0

v1.0.0-rc4

** Server Version **
e.g. 1.19.1

v1.26.6

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

run any request with kubernetes client, e.g:

await this.kc.readNamespace({
          name: this.kubeConfig.namespace,
          pretty: "true",
});

Expected behavior
A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.

I should be able to make calls without errors about self-signed certs in cert chain.

Re-opened this issue because I never got an answer whether this will be addressed or not, this makes the kubernetes client completely unusable on my environment.

Closing this in favor of the original issue, next time you can use the /reopen command, or you can set the lifecycle to frozen to prevent it from being auto-closed.
