You may try look at your certificate extension with command:
 $ openssl x509 -in cert.pem -text -noout

Extensions are checked by Firefox and enforced.
If you will not have required extensions or you will have
to many extension in your certificate Firefox may treat this
certificate as invalid.

For example you may have certificate with extensions:
....
   X509v3 Key Usage: 
      Digital Signature, Non Repudiation, Key Encipherment, Key Agreement
....
which is valid.

But if you will have for some reason certificate:
....
   X509v3 Key Usage: 
      Digital Signature, Non Repudiation, Key Encipherment, Key Agreement
   X509v3 Extended Key Usage: 
      Code Signing
....
then Firefox will treat this certificate as invalid.
