On Chrome I can see that but I doubt Firefox would make that move.
Plus, they won't remove the functionality to manually trust a cert (Business Users would complain).
- Sir_Substance 8y ago> On Chrome I can see that but I doubt Firefox would make that move. Firefox has implemented the same rules around .dev tld's as google. I use vivaldi when accessing internal company .dev domains because firefox won't let me tell it to accept the self-signed certificate.
- detaro 8y agoAn option could be to use certificates signed by a self-signed CA added to your trust store.
- Sir_Substance 8y agoThat's exactly how it's set up. Doesn't help, I'm apparently not allowed to tell my browser what to do in this instance.
- pfg 8y agoFirefox will happily accept self-signed certificates chaining to manually imported CAs. However, there are a lot of severely outdated guides on creating self-signed certificates out there, and many of the certificates produced that way won't be accepted by any modern browser. OpenSSL's terrible command-line UX certainly doesn't help matters. I've found easypki[1] to be the most convenient tool for this purpose.

- tialaramex 8y agoThe person you're replying to doesn't have any problem with certs. Their problem is that they (or their employer) hijack a TLD for whatever ludicrous reason, and HSTS pre-loading applies to their hijacked names the same as it would to real names.
- Kadin 8y agoAh, got it. Well, another argument in favor of not overloading TLDs for internal domains, then, and just buying an additional domain if you really want to have separate internal and external domains.
- pfg 8y agoAre you sure? The initial post was about .dev being HSTS-preloaded, but the comment I was replying to was an answer to the suggestion that they could use self-signed certificates after importing them to the trust store.
- Sir_Substance 8y agoYeah, and having read over this thread about three times I'm actually less sure than I was. I'll be checking today.
- tscs37 8y agoIIRC that's because Mozilla sources their HSTS Preload List from Chromium
