Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead

I have an website which I prior to this error message have visited many times on Firefox and had no problems. Recently though around two days ago I noticed that I couldn't get in and was met with the following message "Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead". I can't bypass it apparently and I really need to be able to access this site as it's a University site.

I can access the site on other browsers such as Chrome and Edge but I use Firefox as my default browser and I'd like to keep it that way. I'd appreciate any help I can get.

Looking at your screenshot, clicking the Advance option should let you go forward.

I tried the fourth link but the same message came up.

What happened with the Advance option in your screenshot? Are you running any security software besides MS Defender?

Copied fourth link, pasted link, works.

Have you tried clear your browser's cache.

For information. Given that canvas.gu.se not secure, i used, for a moment, configure trusted addresses. https://support.kaspersky.com/help/Kaspersky/Win21.23/en-US/201001.htm https://support.kaspersky.com/help/Kaspersky/Win21.23/fr-FR/201001.htm For illustration. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WRIwWMtA7ow

Jonzn4SUSE i am not using any other security softwares. Clicking advanced shows me another "go back" message and says "Error code: SEC_ERROR_REVOKED_CERTIFICATE" Then I can also view said certificate

Interesting... Change network by using your phone's hotspot and try again. Yes, I see the issue in Firefox, but it works in Waterfox. see screenshots

Have a nice day.

For information purposes, Firefox 140.5.0 at the right, take a look at.

Interroger le répondeur OCSP pour confirmer la validité de vos certificats.
