Old Let’s Encrypt Root Certificate Expiration workaround

The expiring Let’s Encrypt DST Root CA X3 can cause problems on old servers:

root@server:/etc# wget https://www.example.com/monitoring
--2021-09-30 21:34:39--  https://www.example.com/monitoring
Resolving www.example.com (www.example.com)... 93.184.216.34
Connecting to www.example.com (www.example.com)|93.184.216.34|:443... connected.
ERROR: The certificate of `www.example.com' is not trusted.

Because I could not find a complete solution, I backported the CSRF-Code from a newer relase.
