279565 - Crash after certificate installation with SSD master password set

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Core Graveyard :: Security: UI, defect)

I use the (swedish) banking service at 

http://www.skandiabanken.se/

At first use, they install a new root certificate and a personal certificate
that belongs to me. I did this a few days ago, and it worked perfectly. I then
remembered that in my old Mozilla (in Fedora Core 1), the certificates were
protected by encryption with the Software Security Device (SSD). I decided to
set up a master password to enable this additional protection. This required a
reinstallation of the certificates.

When I proceeded to install the certificates, everything worked just like the
last time, except that when I completed the last step (the actual certificate
installation), Firefox unexpectedly quits. It seems to have completed the
certificate download and installation though, since when I restarted the browser
the certificates are installed and the banking service works as intended.

highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce

you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
