I encounter this message "Peer’s Certificate has been revoked. Error code: SEC_ERROR_REVOKED_CERTIFICATE" when connecting to "Site A" using Firefox version 122.0 (64), my primary browser. I have successfully connected to "Site A" using Firefox in the recent past.

I can connect to "Site A" without errors using my backup browser, MS Edge Version 121.0.2277.83 (Official build) (64-bit).

This seem to be a Firefox related problem.

Thank you cor-el and zeroknight for your insights. Clearly disabling the security measure is a dangerous move and should not be used unless you completely understand the danger. The link to https://certificate.revocationcheck.com/ provided the information I needed to inform the website owner/developer of the problem.

Firefox checks certificate validity more so than other browsers, you can disable this with the setting "Query OCSP responder servers to confirm the current validity of certificates".

A website should make sure that its certificate is valid and if necessary acquire a new certificate, you shouldn't disable this security measure and if it really is important to access this this website then only disable it temporarily and re-enable it once you are done there.
