When loading the certificate file at the URL below, with locale en_AU I get a dialog box that says "Expires: 22/09/31" but this is ambiguous, the date could be 2022-09-31 or 2031-09-22 in ISO-8601 format. Only when I expand the "Details" arrow and scroll further down can I get an unambiguous date where I see "Not Valid After: 2031-09-22" in the "Issued Certificate" section.

Hi paul can you provide steps in order for us to replicate?
what operating system are you using?
Should i go to about:preferences#privacy and import the cerificate?
Can you also post a screenshot of the dialog box that you are getting?
Does this issue occur in the latest nightly version of firefox? Here is a link from where you can download it: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/channel/desktop/
Please let me know
thanks.
It turns out the issue is not in Firefox but in another application installed that allows viewing certificates.
Sorry for the noise, closing.
