[Request] Allow access to web resource with expired certificate
Access to web page (https://old.computerra.ru/sgolub/707816/) is blocked & warning page with SEC_ERROR_EXPIRED_CERTIFICATE is displayed without possibility to ignore this warning & load requested documunt.
Re: [Request] Allow access to web resource with expired certificate
Well, it is actually possible to add exception (select I Understand the Risks). But I have disabled HSTS.
Re: [Request] Allow access to web resource with expired certificate
There are many reasons to block access to sites with expired certificates, so rather than asking the web browser to go againts best practices, you should ask the site owners to renew the certificate.
Re: [Request] Allow access to web resource with expired certificate
That actually doesn't matter for this.
Absolutely! I'm not sure how responsive they will be though since the certificate expired last April.

Re: [Request] Allow access to web resource with expired certificate
If it wasn't for these warnings, I might have missed the fact that my own SSL certificate was missing a link to its CA authority.
And further to that, because i made some cert validation tests, I also found that although I had disabled SSLv3 it was sill active.
Yet all other browsers approved the SSL cert.

Re: [Request] Allow access to web resource with expired certificate
While using the possibility to add an exception the checkmark for saving it permanently shouldn't be set as default.
Re: [Request] Allow access to web resource with expired certificate
In private mode browsing the exception won't be saved anyway.
Re: [Request] Allow access to web resource with expired certificate
There is no button to add exception (see attached image).
Re: [Request] Allow access to web resource with expired certificate
Sorry but it doesn't look like you're using Pale Moon. New Moon is not official (and actually the most common builds are totally unaffiliated hackjobs). As such this request will be closed and further support requests need to be directed to the ones you got the browser from.
The advanced option to display the exception depends on several security factors, which may be influenced by your browser's settings or build configuration which are unknown if on an unofficial distribution.
