Most likely the problem is that the certificate returned depends
on the name provided via Server Name Indication (SNI). That is,
that the server block in the upstream server configuration is not
the default one, and the default one returns a different
certificate.

Usage of Server Name Indication for upstream SSL connections isn't
enabled by default, and this isn't switched on in your
configuration. Try

proxy_ssl_server_name on;

to see if it helps. See http://nginx.org/r/proxy_ssl_server_name
for details.

You may also try the following patch to provide somewhat better
debug logging when checking upstream server SSL certificates:

# HG changeset patch
# User Maxim Dounin <mdounin@mdounin.ru>

SSL: added verify callback to ngx_ssl_trusted_certificate().

This ensures that certificate verification is properly logged to debug
log during upstream server certificate verification. This should help
with debugging various certificate issues.
