I looked through PSM for such a warning briefly.  I found a warning for
sites that use symmetric encryption of strength<= 90 bits, but I found
nothing that specifically looks at public key strength.  If I know the
exact text of the warning to which you're referring, I can tell exactly
what triggers it.

I remember John Myers was interested in or work on the weak
server key/cert issue.  But the only bug I can find is
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31896
which might be what Nelson found.

Yes, I found the code that was added for that bug.

So PSM may not be warning about a weak server key/cert.

So, is it the case that PSM is not actually checking for 512-bit certs?

Thanks,
Kathleen
