Support Unknown Issuer Error

Open V-E-O opened this issue 12 years ago • 4 comments

wiki.mozilla.org uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because no issuer chain was provided. (Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer)

Another monitor firewall error, can you add support on that? Thanks.

Hi, can't reproduce the error:

  1. wiki.mozilla.org is verified by GeoTrust (buil into Firefox)
  2. ISSUER_UNKNOWN bypass is supported by SkipCertError please provides further information about your environment and steps to reproduce.

Hi Foundfou,

I noticed later ISSUER_UNKNOWN is supported, but on FF22, SkipCertError not working as in FF18. It's hard to reproduce for my computer is behind an ssl firewall.

The tampered cert's CA cert chain is removed, that make it unknown_issuer. For untrusted CA signed cert, this error is also displayed as sec_error_unknown_issuer. SkipCertError can bypass this error but tampered cert without CA.

Hi, could you check if the fix in #13 works for you ?
