618330 - Fennec displays modal security dialog for blocklist ping when redirected by access points

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 618919

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Denis]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.4506.2152; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; InfoPath.2; MS-RTC LM 8)
Build Identifier: Mozilla Fennec 4.0b3pre

When connecting to the acces point
I got this message in Fennec
services.addons.mozilla.org443 uses an invalid security certificate
The certificate is only valid for apc.aptilo.com
(Error code: ssl_error_bad_cert_domain)

I check out the certificate and looks correct (dates from 10/01/2009 till 12/04/2011, ww.digicert.com, DigiCert.Inc, DigiCert High Assurance CA-3)

I checked /etc/ssl/crt folder does not exist


Reproducible: Always

Load Fennec on the "Mozilla Guest" wi-fi network. Leave it up for a little bit of time (or maybe try to load your first page, before authenticating). You get a modal dialog saying that the certificate for services.addons.mozilla.org is only valid for securelogin.arubanetworks.com.

This is because of a transparent proxy, but instead of popping up a modal dialog, Fennec should just ignore the blocklist ping.

This happens for more than blocklist pings. Any attempt to access the AMO https service API will do it. I am trying to override the PSM/NSS dialog in bug 618919
