User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686 on x86_64; rv:27.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/27.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20140212131424

Steps to reproduce:

Logging into Salesforce.com using Firefox 29 or 30 unfortunately displays a certificate warning when it opens up https://c.eu2.content.force.com . That hostname is supported in the certificate as a wildcard name within the list of subjectAlternativeNames, which is DNS:*.eu2.force.com, DNS:*.eu2.visual.force.com, DNS:*.chatter.com, DNS:*.eu2.chatter.com, DNS:*.b.eu2.visual.force.com, DNS:*.cloudforce.com, DNS:*.secure.force.com, DNS:*.eu2.content.force.com, DNS:*.database.com, DNS:*.force.com, DNS:eu2.staticforce.com, DNS:*.eu2.cloudforce.com, DNS:*.eu2.my.cloudforce.com



Actual results:

Certificate warning on https://c.eu2.content.force.com


Expected results:

The page should have loaded successfully, set its cookie, and moved on to https://eu2.salesforce.com

New version of NSS in that range. Brian are we doing the right thing by blocking this page load?

Please see bug 973592. We removed the root certificate that this site is using. We need to address the compatibility issues from doing so.
Thanks for the quick follow-up. That makes sense. Salesforce.com will need to update to a 2048-bit cert chain on its force.com endpoints.
