I investigated... In the OK profile, the "AddTrust External CA Root" certificate is selfsigned, whereas the certificates are differents on the KO profile (and they make a loop!): /usr/bin/certutil -L -d /home/fpiat/.mozilla/firefox/*.default/ -a -n "AddTrust External CA Root" | openssl x509 -noout -issuer -subject > issuer= /C=US/ST=UT/L=Salt Lake City/O=The USERTRUST > Network/OU=http://www.usertrust.com/CN=UTN - DATACorp SGC > subject= /C=SE/O=AddTrust AB/OU=AddTrust External TTP Network/CN=AddTrust > External CA Root /usr/bin/certutil -L -d /home/fpiat/.mozilla/firefox/*.default/ -a -n "UTN - DATACorp SGC" | openssl x509 -noout -issuer -subject > issuer= /C=SE/O=AddTrust AB/OU=AddTrust External TTP Network/CN=AddTrust > External CA Root > subject= /C=US/ST=UT/L=Salt Lake City/O=The USERTRUST > Network/OU=http://www.usertrust.com/CN=UTN - DATACorp SGC I wonder where I got those certificates from, and if others could be affected. <me thinking> If I understand how NSS work properly, it means that NSS is "learning" certificates chains (i.e adding certificates to it's database) as it is receiving certificates from visited websites. This fuzzy / unpredictable behavior scares me. </me thinking> Anyway, I removed the "Software Security Device" entries, and it's now working: UTN - DATACorp SGC `-> AddTrust External CA Root `-> COMODO EV SGC CA `-> www.comodo.com Regards, Franklin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
