[Firefox Mobile] Add exceptions for self-signed TLS certificates

[carmelo]

Many residential modem-routers allow you to establish a secure connection with HTTPS protocol to log into their configuration page. However, every time with Firefox Mobile you have to click on "Accept certificate ...". I believe that being able to add an exception to these certificates would be convenient for many who find themselves in this situation

Thanks for submitting an idea to the Mozilla Connect community! Your idea is now open to votes (aka kudos) and comments.

I have the exactly same problem. This works in the desktop browser since I can remember. But in the mobile version this is not working any more.

Please enable "adding an exception" again.

Thanks in advance🙏

I have the same problem. I cannot get into my own private web site from outside, which is self signed of course to save money.

Same here. IMHO the current strategy of requesting an ACK every time actually *decreases* security, because it allows a man-in-the-middle attack every time the certificate verification is overridden instead of only once when the cert is accepted (and pinned) for the first time.

Why can I do this on desktop, but not mobile?

I beg of you to add this feature. I'm self-hosting a number of applications on a home server that I regularly access through VPN, and having to go through this every time I connect is getting to be more than a hassle.

One of the applications, Actual Budget, can be downloaded as a webapp, but it's useless if I use Firefox instead of Chrome because there's no way to accept the self-signed certificate when opened from the homescreen as a webapp instead of through the address bar (where I have refresh the cache and reload to get out of offline mode and re-accept the certificate every single time)
