Current webbrowsers only trust specific known certificates and throw this warning (it's even worse in firefox) when you use a self-signed/own one (like the one the pi generates when you start coder the first time and no cert files are located in the specified folder.) It is as far as i know no bug and not a security issue, just your browser warning you that the servers (the pi's) certificate is self signed and not one from the CA. (Wikipedia about Self signed Certificates)

yea, your computer doesnt have a security certificate assigned to it. I think its o.k. for you to vouch for yourself, so you should click thorough the error and add an exception.
