The default when you create self-signed certificate is 1 month (30 days)
To create a longer expiry use the days option.
-days arg Specifies the number of days to make a certificate valid for. The default is 30 days. Cannot be used with the -preserve_dates option.
One year expiry.
$ openssl req -x509 -sha256 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout myselfsigned.key -out mycert.pem
