Don’t aircraft manufacturers audit their suppliers? The parts should not have been accepted without the safety certificates, right?

The accusation is that the unauthorized manufacturer created fake security certificates.

No one should be surprised here. It's just like the CDC and FDA "overseeing" the Jim Jones Jab from Pfizer and ModeRNA.
