At moment and for the past week or so, my email and other web pages garble all the bold type. This has happened periodically for the better part of a year. It will be normal for a month or so then be garbled as shown in the attached screen shot. This only happens on Firefox, not on Mac mail, Google Chrome, or Safari.

I have cleared cookies and cache.  I have also tried About:config>extensions.webcompat.enable_shims changed to FALSE.  

A sidebar with web addresses disappeared too. I think I have been done in by an update. What setting am I missing? I am using Firefox 114 with Windows 10

SSL_ERROR_BAD_CERT_DOMAIN only when click link, but not when type URL

When I click a link to https://drive-image.com, Firefox gives me the security error: Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead Firefox detected a potential security threat … (Lesen Sie mehr)

When I click a link to https://drive-image.com, Firefox gives me the security error:

Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead Firefox detected a potential security threat and did not continue to drive-image.com. Firefox does not trust this site because it uses a certificate that is not valid for drive-image.com. The certificate is only valid for the following names: secure.r-tt.com, www.drive-image.com, www.r-studio.com, www.r-tt.com, www.r-undelete.com, www.r-wipe.com

Error code: SSL_ERROR_BAD_CERT_DOMAIN

But here's what makes it so bizarre: Clicking the link gives the error, but if I type that URL into the address bar, it works perfectly fine. I can even right-click the link > Open Link in New Tab (or Window) and it works fine. I originally found this because I searched "r drive image" in DuckDuckGo and that link was the first result. But it also happens in a very simple test HTML page I wrote, which just contains a link to that page.

When drive-image.com is loaded, it immediately redirects, so that the page actually shown is https://www.drive-image.com/.

Some more info:

  • This is on my laptop (Windows 10 Home 64-bit), in Firefox (up to date, 113.0.2 (64-bit)).
  • It also happens in latest Mullvad Browser, which is based on Firefox codebase.
  • Also happens on my other computer, running Windows 10 Home 64-bit, in Firefox and Mullvad Browser.
  • I created a new profile and it still happens using that.
  • I turned off uBlock and Ghostery extensions, it still happens.
  • I added an exception in Firefox Settings: Enhanced Tracking Protection for drive-image.com and it still happens.
  • It does not happen in Chrome or Edge.
  • It happens with my VPN connected or disconnected, on both computers, which use different VPN servers when connected.

I've gotten the infrequent security error clicking what looks like a legitimate link before and shrugged it off, going elsewhere. But this time knowing the site was legit, I messaged their support and eventually ended up at this point after much investigating, and suspect something serious is amiss.

Images of the error are attached, along with an image of my test page's text if that matters (since I can't attach a text file).

Does anyone else get this error by clicking a link to that site? Is this a Firefox bug/issue, or an actual problem with their website/certificate?

Dear Mozilla Team,

I have severe difficulties with my Windows computer to open many websites I want to open, even those of banks I normally can easily enter.

Do you have any advice for me how to fix that? I searched in the help function but found the advice to be insufficient. And I also found no way to manually change the setting for the individual pages.

Thank you very much for your help.

About a week ago I started getting these message windows 'Gah. Your tab has crashed.' I have never seen these before now they're everywhere. I have tried all the Troubleshoot procedures and nothing seems to help. I've done all the cleanups and checked the add-ons but there is nothing new and no changes I am aware of.

I am using firefox on a debian installation base: $ firefox-esr --version Mozilla Firefox 91.13.0esr $ uname -a Linux debian 5.10.0-18-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 5.10.140-1 (2022-09-02) x86_64 GNU/Linux $ These days web pages come with all kinds of cr@p; so, at times you need to just get all the links inside the page to parse/eyeball them. What I do is grab the "page source" and/or use "Link Gopher". I have been noticing lately that they don't work anymore. Why? The problem seems to relate to javascript generated pages. When you try to see the source all you see is some javascript one liner.

Of course, firefox must have a way to show the source since it shows to you the actual page unencrypted. Which settings in about:config should you change in order to be able to "go to the source" again? lbrtchx

Hello,

Am using Mozilla Firefox installed via flatpak on openSUSE. Certain pdfs display correctly but other pdfs displayed with Firefox (either locally or online) are displayed badly: spaces are replaced with a lower half block character, fonts not sharp. I installed Firefox from the openSUSE repos (not from flathub) and opened the same pdf and it displayed correctly. I downloaded the pdf and opened it using Okular and no problems. I also opened the “troublesome” pdfs on Firefox in Windows and it displays correctly. I conclude that the flatpak version of Firefox is causing some pdfs to display incorrectly but I don’t know why.

I installed flatseal to tweak the flatpak Firefox’s settings but nothing seemed to fix the pdf display issue. Please see screenshot below of how Firefox (from openSUSE repos, on the left hand side) and Firefox (from flathub, on the right hand side) display the same pdf from the internet. The online pdf in the screenshot and used as an example of the issue can be found at:

https://www.jrf.org.uk/sites/default/files/jrf/files-research/international_cities_rotterdam.pdf

Not sure why some pdfs display correctly in Firefox from flathub and others display incorrectly. I’d prefer to use flatpak’s sandboxed Firefox if possible. Is there anyone else with the same problem or someone who who found a solution to this issue?

Thanks

I need to clear cookies to get this operational again. This doesn't happen on chrome on the same computer.

The only add on I have is an adblocker, disabled for yahoo mail. This problem also happens with enhanced tracker protection turned off.

A little research has had mixed results on Reddit. Anyway, I am not directly looking for advice here on securing my device. Rather, I am wondering if there is any chance this could be a problem on the Firefox end, perhaps an issued caused by the recent update? Thanks.
