Details

When a ssl/tls website changes its certificate the doorhanger "you are connected to abc [...] verified by: xyz" shows wrong (old) information. Steps to reproduce: 1. Open a ssl/tls website (in Firefox 25). 2. Change server certificate and restart web server. 3. Reload website by clicking the reload button. 4. Click on the doorhanger. 5. See that "verified by" still shows the old (wrong) information. 6. Click on "details" in doorhanger panel and see the new (correct) certificate. Optional: 7. Duplicate tab by middle-clicking the reload button. 8. See that "verified by" is now correct
Still reproducible in Firefox 27.0.1 Additional information for 8.: at the same moment "verified by" is also changed for the old tab.
