If you are among the users who are getting errors while updating or upgrading in Kali Linux then your worries are over. I had the same issue and have found a solution.
The errors occurs when performing any of the following commands:
#apt-get update
#apt-get upgrade
#apt-get dist-upgrade
and even if you try --fix-missing parameter with above commands it does not help!
One of the error looks like:
W: A error occurred during the signature verification. The repository is not updated and the previous index files will be used. GPG error: http://security.kali.org kali/updates Release: The following signatures were invalid: KEYEXPIRED 1425567400 KEYEXPIRED 1425567400 KEYEXPIRED 1425567400
