1763524 - Remove or update probes expiring in Firefox 102: CLIENT_CERTIFICATE_SCAN_TIME

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Security: PSM, task, P1)

Description

[telemetry-probes]

The following Firefox probes will expire in the next major Firefox nightly release: version 102 [1].

CLIENT_CERTIFICATE_SCAN_TIME

What to do about this:

1. If one, some, or all of the metrics are no longer needed, please remove them from their definitions files (Histograms.json, Scalars.yaml, Events.yaml).
2. If one, some, or all of the metrics are still required, please submit a Data Collection Review [2] and patch to extend their expiry. There is a shorter form for data collection renewal [3].

If you have any problems, please ask for help on the #data-help Slack channel or the #telemetry Matrix room at https://chat.mozilla.org/#/room/#telemetry:mozilla.org. We'll give you a hand.

Attachment: Bug 1763524 - handle the builtin roots module better when scanning for client certificates r?jschanck

Scanning for client certificates involves looking through each slot in each
PKCS#11 module. There may be many certificates that don't have corresponding
private keys in the NSS softoken, so it's more efficient to search for private
keys and then find any matching certificates. This reasoning also applies to
the NSS builtin roots module, which is the change this patch makes.
