No, it means that the SSL certificate has expired - they only have a
limited validity and these default certificates are generated at
install time with a 365 day life.

Create a new certificate. 

If you don't use https (which is probably likely if you didn't know
about certificate lifetimes), then you can ignore the warning (although
it will never stop telling you about it). The warning is issued by
/etc/cron.daily/certwatch and you can put 'NOCERTWATCH=yes' in
/etc/sysconfig/httpd to disable the warnings.
