An administrator provided Valid Until period is ignored and cross-certificate is issued with the default expiry date
When issuing a cross-certificate, the administrator updated the default certificate expiry period (for example, changed the year from default 2016 to 2009) before clicking on 'Issue Certificate' button.  A certificate is issued, however, the expiration date on the certificate remains 2016 (instead of 2009).
