I need to determine how to address Firefox blocking a certificate on a secured banking website.
So the issue is FireFox is blocking the a certificate that a bank has on one of their redirects. I know I can add an exception and that works fine. However, I'm curious as to how it would be fixed for all users without adding the exception. The redirect is https://www.splash-screen.net/94114/rapi.js?f=rCallback When visiting that url, it mentions "The owner of www.splash-screen.net has configured their website improperly. To protect your information from being stolen, Firefox has not connected to this website."
it also mentions: www.splash-screen.net uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate is unknown. The server might not be sending the appropriate intermediate certificates. An additional root certificate may need to be imported. Error code: SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER

I figured out the issue. It was our internal network causing it to flag the certificate. Outside the network it worked on 4 devices

Since I am sure no bank would redirect your URL like that please do the following : https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-caused-malware Please keep a copy of your logs as you may need them to help in the malware forum of your choice. NOTE: post in only 1 malware site only.
Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.
Actually SunTrust Bank uses it to validate their clients have Trusteer installed on their computer. It's not malware.
Their script..
try{ rCallback({"timestamp":"2017-07-20 10:40:24","v4":{"download_link":null,"rapport_id":null,"rapport_running":0,"compatible":1},"ki":"","v4a":{"rapport_version":"NOT_AVAILABLE"}}, , ); } catch(e){}
OK sorry, That information was not available in your information that was sent. I have seen it in others. I have nothing on your plugins/extensions or flash not your operating system nor what version of Firefox you are running. Could you please supply that information.
Just for info : https://www.trusteer.com/support/supported-platforms https://www.trusteer.com/en/how-to-download-install-rapport-using-firefox https://www.trusteer.com/support/how-can-i-tell-rapport-working NOTE : https://www.trusteer.com/en/support/pharming-alert-info-5 NOTE Repair Page Win10 : http://windowsreport.com/trusteer-rapport-windows-10/ Ok I need some more information please. Do not the last 2 and might as well go over the other URL's
Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.
I apologize, I was in a hurry when I posted this..
This was tested in Firefox 54.0.1 and and 43.0.1.
The only addons on both machines (windows 7) is Open H264 Video Codec, Widevine Content, httpFox, and shockwave Flash. Your Flash Version 25.0.0
I believe thereis something wrong with SunTrust's certificate as it is happening to all Firefox users.
my opinion is:
rapport is the problem you are having. most banks dont use it.
i use to. but found it not needed.
while it is touted to be a security feature for banking, there is no evidence that rapport itself is not doing sneaky stuff or is unhackable.
so this is why security certificates and redirects are problematic for you. when it comes to banking and you are being re-directed, this is a red flag that wont be ignored by browsers.
Can you not contact their support about this in case they do have a bad certificate at Splash ? They would know about that script you sent.
You Flash is out of date : https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ Direct link scans current system and browser Note: Other software is offered in the download. <Windows Only>
Am sure that they could not be using Flash to validate but might as well update as it is a security issue.
OK are you sure you are seeing a Firefox Alert or the Trusteer Alert here ? https://www.trusteer.com/en/support/pharming-alert-info-5 Or is it like this ? https://www.trusteer.com/support/websense
Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.

The page loads for me right now, and a test site shows it should work in Firefox: https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=www.splash-screen.net
Is it fixed for you? If not, you can share information about the certificate your Firefox is rejecting by clicking that SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER code to reveal a panel with an encoded version of the certificate.
If you copy/paste that into a reply, a volunteer can decode it and check the "issuer" to see whether it is something unexpected. I use this site for decoding if you want to try it yourself:

Hmm, on mine, the certificate was issued by:
CN = GeoTrust SHA256 SSL CA O = GeoTrust Inc. C = US
On yours, the certificate was issued by:
CN = SunTrust WSA-A58D CA OU = SunTrust O = SunTrust Bank C = US
How is Suntrust getting into the action there on IBM's server?!
Is it possible that something on your computer is redirecting the request from IBM's server (which uses the IP addresses detected by SSLLabs) to a different server operated by your bank, for example, a proxy server or hosts file entry?
"I need to determine how to address Firefox blocking a certificate on a secured banking website"
actually, you dont have to determine anything.
what you need to do is to contact the banks technical support. they will tell you / give you exactly what you need if everything is "kosher"
bottom line: firefox is not the problem.
