When attempting to retrieve a favicon from a site with an invalid certificate by using nsIFaviconService the invalid certificate error dialog appears.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. run the following code with chrome privileges
2.
function testFavicon(){
function urlToURI(url){
return Components.classes["@mozilla.org/network/io-service;1"].getService(Components.interfaces.nsIIOService).newURI(url, null, null);
}
var url = 'https://beta.interclue.com/favicon.ico';
var uriIcon = urlToURI(url);
var faviconService = Components.classes["@mozilla.org/browser/favicon-service;1"].getService(Components.interfaces.nsIFaviconService);
var uriPage = urlToURI(uriIcon.prePath);
faviconService.setAndLoadFaviconForPage(uriPage, uriIcon, false);
}
testFavicon();
Actual Results:
An invalid certificate error dialog appears
Expected Results:
No dialog should appear, but the faviconService.setAndLoadFaviconForPage() function should throw an error.
This error should be trappable (using try/catch) so that a extension developer can attempt to retrieve a favicon in the background without invalid certificate dialogs appearing for no reason.
The bug was fixed in 3.0 builds, but appears to have reverted
#453442 (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=453442) is very similar too this bug, however I am unable to re-open the ticket.
