Firefox Showing Insecure Connection

You can enable it to show an insecure connection icon in the address bar of Firefox browser. Divinity original sin 2 wiki. Use the following steps to enable this feature. Open Mozilla Firefox and type about:config in the.

Kaspersky, like most AV products these days, is performing a local MITM against your secure HTTP traffic. It does this in order to be able to scan payloads in HTTP transactions, be it in the request or the response.In order for this to be done correctly, Kaspersky has to generate its own root CA certificate, and generate spoofed certificates on the fly, feeding them to your browser. Kaspersky also has to install this CA into your operating system's Trusted Certificate store.The reason why it needs to install it into the OS certificate store is because this is where most software looks to validate that the Certificate Authority who has issued the certificate it has received is a valid, trusted Authority. If that authority is not there, boom, you get this error.FireFox is the only mainstream web browser that is paranoid. It refuses to trust your OS's cert store, precisely because its so easy to simply install a fake CA into it and start MITM'ing peoples connections. Instead, FireFox is distributed with a of all CAs that Mozilla trusts.What's cute about this is that it's not actually adding any security whatsoever. You can simply compile the open source package and, included in it is a utility called CertUtil that can transparently inject certificates, even root CAs, into FireFox's trusted cert store.

This does not require the user to accept it, nor does it even alert the user that this has happened. You can see how easy this is to do in a C# function I wrote.So what's happening here is that Kaspersky is not properly MITM'ing FireFox, so when FireFox gets fed certs issued by Kaspersky's CA, it's throwing all the alarms and screaming at you that you're under attack.

Yep, got this happening what seems to be with every browser restart on a comp here. What's 'working' so far is just going into the profile folder and deleting the two 'cert.db' files in there (while browser closed) and then loads np, until the next time of loading Firefox (Quantum - like someone else here stated, only started happening since updating to Quantum, though has happened on ONE occasion in the past, a long while back now, with same 'fix' but that worked after doing so just the once.).
