Details

User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; Mozilla; OS8MT;) Build Identifier: I generate certificates with openssl, and when they are generated they are installed without any acknowledgement that I have received a certificate! To me it seems like it's possible for anybody to create and install a certificate in Mozilla without my knowledge. I see this as a security problem. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Expected Results: When a certificate is received, a user acknowledge shall be done before it is installed.
Marking duplicate due to the final comment - "When a certificate is received, a user acknowledge shall be done before it is installed." *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 28975 ***
