1555438 - Expose attributes from nsISiteSecurityService and failedCertChain info to content for about:certerror use

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox :: Security, enhancement)

Description

[:prathiksha]

We need certificate security info for use in aboutNetError.js to handle interactions with advancedButton and copyToClipboard button in unprivileged content. This is in line with our plan to remove NetErrorChild.jsm and use RPM for message exchanges between unprivileged content(aboutNetError.js) and the parent process if needed.

This bug removes the getDetailedCertErrorInfo[0] function from browser.js. This bug also eliminates the need for communication with the parent process, by aboutNetError.js, in order to display about:certerror to the user.
