Mremoteng: Access to https with self-signed certificates not working

[MaRRiK74]

As the title says. Using https links that use selfsigned certs are impossible to open.
The option to 'continue' is missing.

Need to handle the NSSError event thrown by the Gecko browser. Default should be to prompt the user whether they would like to continue.

Not entirely sure how to get the IE browser working yet.

[sparerd]

The IE browsers inability to prompt to continue was introduced in commit a1beff7 that was meant to fix another bug. Trying to find that ticket..

Here is the related bug report for commit a1beff7: MR-706

This may require us to add a connection-specific option for toggling error suppression.

The geckofx documentation isn't that great. Going to need to play around with this for awhile. No guarantees this will make it into 1.75

There is a workaround listed in #259

Any news or schedule on this? @kmscode

I'm trying to pitch this software for my company and we're running into this same issue which is a major problem if we were to use it.

From #259:

Allow embed Firefox(GeckoFx) to access SSL w/invalid certs in Remote Connection HTTPS

Manual fix to use your firefox exception SSL w/invalid certs:
Copy:
c:\users%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles{RANDOM}\cert_override.txt
and place it here
c:\users%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Geckofx\DefaultProfile\cert_override.txt

Note: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Cert_override.txt

tentatively scheduled for 1.76

Ïs there any plan to have this fix released?

Hi Guys,

Any chance this can be re-addressed?
