Disabling removes all trust #39

Open franziskuskiefer opened 8 years ago

franziskuskiefer commented 8 years ago

Disabling the extension seems to remove all trust bits set in Firefox, i.e. after disabling it there are no trusted CAs anymore.

Changeset b3e731c1552bd509a9fc3e7d0fb3e4094a5d0189 resolves this issue. Currently working on creating options on disable/uninstall that allow users to select whether or not they want the new certificates disabled.

When I run the newest XPI this issue still exists.

burchtm commented 8 years ago

The previous fix is working when ran with jpm run but is not working when ran via the XPI

I don't normally b*tch, but this is really bad. Almost everything I do is on secured sites and this problem really screwed me. I was crazy for 15 hours a) thinking my system was hacked and b) trying to figure out what was wrong and get operational again.

Please resolve this ASAP

@wsmwk can you test with the latest version available on amo again? (You might need a new profile...)

i just tested "certificate_manager-1.0.7-fx-windows.xpi" from AMO... after disabling the addon and restarting Firefox i can no longer access ANY https site.

partial fix for the https issue:

0) uninstall the addon 1) shut down Firefox completely 2) navigate to "%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\" 3) enter the Firefox profile folder (folder name: something random .default) 4) delete the user profile certificate store file: "cert8.db" 5) start Firefox - it will re-create a new user certificate store using built-in default values if it cannot find the file at startup. 6) https now works again.
