Hi l10ns.

Have anyone figured out, how to show the new HTTPS error page and all of
its variations? It is now for localization in
browser/chrome/overrides/netError.dtd. I have tried all pages on
badssl.com, but still getting the current error page, not this new one.
I am a bit struggling with the translation, so I would like to see it in
action.

Also is it going to replace the all present HTTPS error pages, or is it
a new one and both versions will be in use in release?

Cheers,

Set the browser.security.newcerterrorpage.enabled and restart browser.
https://self-signed.badssl.com/

I see that it doesn't apply to page load errors (no exceptions), like
https://pinning-test.badssl.com/, https://revoked.badssl.com/ and
https://dh480.badssl.com/.

As already pointed out, the new version is behind a pref, and it's
supposed to replace the existing one.

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1477310 is tracking
enabling the new error pages by default in Nightly.
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1463693 is the tracking bug.

Let me know if you can't reach specific strings, and I'll try to look into it.

Had same issue on Firefox 72.02 Not Chrome

Using Selenium C#

This worked for me:

if (driverName == "firefox")
{
// Initialize the Firefox driver
FirefoxOptions options = new FirefoxOptions();

options.AddAdditionalCapability("acceptInsecureCerts", true, true);
options.AddAdditionalCapability("acceptUntrustedCerts", true, true);
//options.Profile.AcceptUntrustedCertificates = true; <-- Does not work

return new FirefoxDriver(options);
}

Also had to do this on Firefox about:config

1. Type “about:config” in Firefox Search
2. Search for “security.enterprise_roots.enabled” and set value to True
3. Search for “security.ssl.enable_ocsp_stapling” and set value to False
