X509 parsing error, 'negative serial number' while pulling repository

Our server access internet through a proxy. When I try to run a pull command such as

sudo docker run -t -i ubuntu:14.04 /bin/bash

I get the below error:

Get https://index.docker.io/v1/repositories/ubuntu/images: tls: failed to parse
    certificate from server: x509: negative serial number

The wget command wget -S -d -O - https://get.docker.io yields the below output:

Please give me some directions on how I should go about this issue.

EDIT:

I ve now disabled the proxy for this IP segment but I still get the same error. The command: wget -S -d -O - https://get.docker.io gets the below output now:

It looks like the proxy in your company uses SSL interception to inspect SSL traffic, which means that you get a certificate signed by the proxy CA of your company instead of the original certificate. It also looks like that this proxy CA is not trusted by your system and thus the verification fails.

I would recommend that you contact your firewall administrator on how to deal with the problem. Either they will add an exception for the SSL inspection, or they will tell you which certificate you need to import as trusted in your system.

This should be fixed for any Docker compiled with Go 1.6+, see: https://github.com/golang/go/commit/a0ea93dea5f5741addc8c96b7ed037d0e359e33f.
