@capacitor-firebase/messaging - the Certification Authority (CA) for Apple Push Notification service (APNs) is changing

[klaurtar]

I received this email from Apple developer:

As we announced in October, the Certification Authority (CA) for Apple Push Notification service (APNs) is changing. APNs will update the server certificates in sandbox on January 20, 2025, and in production on February 24, 2025. To continue using APNs without interruption, you’ll need to update your application’s Trust Store to include the new server certificate: SHA-2 Root : USERTrust RSA Certification Authority certificate.

To ensure a smooth transition and avoid push notification delivery failures, please make sure that both old and new server certificates are included in the Trust Store before the cut-off date for each of your application servers that connect to sandbox and production. At this time, you don’t need to update the APNs SSL provider certificates issued to you by Apple.

I am currently on "@capacitor-firebase/messaging": "^6.1.0"

I just wanted to confirm that this is a change Firebase itself must respond to and not me personally for my app to be able to successfully send push notifications. Is any other action needed on my part like an upgrade of package versions or anything? Thanks!
