A customer of us is trying to connect to our helpdesk system using Firefox and SSL. I can not tell if he uses a proxy but it's a probable yes.
When trying to connect to our webplattform using Firefox, he retrieves this error code
ssl_error_illegal_parameter_alert
Since he is the only customer, reporting this issue, i need to know, if i can be sure telling him its an error occured by his network/proxy/etc.
I cant find a clear definition about this error. Can you verify, who failes in this case with just that Error response?
Warning! This will disable some Firefox protection features! This might be risky.
In the URL bar, type about:config, accept the warning.
Search for "security.tls.version"
Change "security.tls.version.min" from 1 to 0
Change "security.tls.version.fallback-limit" from 1 to 0
Fixed the issue for me, hope it will help.
Anyways, you might want to consider changing from SSLv3 to TLS certificates I guess. These security features have been introduced after POODLE security flaw.
In my case, I forgot that I had tightened the SSL settings in FireFox: I changed the minimum TLS level acceptable. Resetting to the default, I was able to get to the site I was trying to get to (my older WiFi access point).
In the URL bar, type about:config, accept the warning, search for tls, reset security.tls.version.min to default 0.
In my case, I had that minimum set to 1 (according to http://kb.mozillazine.org/Security.tls.version.*), TLS 1.0, not allowing SSL3 or older. (No restart required, just try to reload the page.)

I am currently testing the changes for version 4.0 of the protocol for PSD2 using Direct Integration.
I am running under Visual Studio using a localhost website address.
When calling the SagePay payment endpoint with ThreeDSNotificationURL set as a localhost address (http://localhost:15536/Payments/ThreeDResponse) I receive the following error '3228 : The ThreeDSNotificationURL field format is invalid.'
If I change this field to a fully qualified domain (http://www.google.com) I no longer receive the error, but can't complete my testing.
Using localhost for the termurl in version 3.0 of the protocol works as expected.
I was attempting to work locally like your self and receiving the same issue. After speaking with support they confirmed that they will not accept "localhost". Also, the documentation suggests that HTTPS is a requirement, so this might also be a blocking factor.
I think someone suggested using ngrok as a means of tunneling external requests into your localhost, which is a good method to continue development locally whilst also being visible externally to services like SagePay.
Once I got passed the above issue, I got several more errors for other missing required fields as listed here; https://www.sagepay.co.uk/support/38/psd2-under-direct-integration (note that if BrowserJavascriptEnabled is true all conditional fields are then required)
Did you URL encode the ThreeDSNotificationURL in your post?
I send it like that and it is ok:
sb.Append(HttpUtility.UrlEncode("https://www.clientdomian.com/ac/ThreeDSNotificationURL.aspx"));
I run the site on my local IIS for development.
I recently had this issue and I wanted to document it here, because searching for this issue gives very little in terms of results.
I was getting this error code when i switched my Opayo/SagePay extension (MageNest SagePay for Magento) to 3ds2.
As it turns out, the full URL wasn't being sent. It was trying to send sagepay/direct/postBack?form_key=HZuYxgiEq9w2CNFB and NOT https://www.example.com/sagepay/direct/postBack?form_key=HZuYxgiEq9w2CNFB. It's partly my fault because there was a domain field in the config which was empty (it's not like the domain can't be retrieved automatically, huh) and partly the vendors fault because it was very badly documented.
So while this is a different problem for a different platform, I hope this helps someone.
I am running a WordPress on an Azure Web app connecting to a MySQL server on a different Windows server. When loading the mentioned page in Chrome, it shows 2 popups 403 & Forbidden. Checking the console throws this error - ecbcc.js:2 POST /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php 403 (Forbidden)
This works fine on FireFox & IE but not on Chrome. Any ideas why?
This is because of your cache. Minified version of JS is causing the issue in chrome browser. Check or purge the cache and check for the permissions applied to cached files as well.
I faced the same issue but it took a long time for me to fix it. Because my solution was not caused by common things like cache, .htaccess, files permissions, etc. I apply all the possible solutions as described here. When nothing worked for me, then I talked with my hosting provider and the issue was on their side. Actually, the server has black-listed my IP.
Below is the reply from the support of my hosting provider:
After checking it, it looks like the issue is caused by trigger
ModSecurity rules.
ModSecurity is an Apache module that works as a web application
firewall. It blocks known exploits and provides protection from a
range of attacks against web applications. However, sometimes,
mod_security may incorrectly determine that a certain request is
malicious, while it is actually legitimate. In such a situation, we
can whitelist the triggered mod_security rule on the server, so that
you can bypass the block.
In order to properly investigate, we need you to share your IP address
with us. You can copy it from here: https://ip.web-hosting.com/
Looking forward to your response.
This error can appear for more than one reason. Except for the accepted answer, if you are using a shared hosting solution as a server then it would be best to contact the support of the service. Also if you use Plesk or Cpanel you can check the server logs to see if there is any false positive rule that from mod_security that catches the error. Then you can find the error that could look something like that:
ModSecurity: Warning. Match of "test file" against "REQUEST_FILENAME" required. [file "/etc/httpd/conf/modsecurity.d/rules/custom/006_i360_4_custom.conf"] [line "264"] [id "77140992"]
You can apply the ID on your firewall exclusion list (if this is provided by your hosting service) and then the server will not block the request anymore.
IMPORTANT: If you are not sure what you are doing, ask your hosting provider for support. Experimenting on live servers/sites is not the best option and I would strongly recommend avoiding it.
I am able to set the proxy host and port using the preferences menu, but I see no option to set the username/password.
When I browse, I get a message, proxy is refusing connections. I am using squid proxy.
How do I do this?
I had the exact same problem as you had.
And finaly there is no way to add user and password to the default firefox proxy settings, so we need an addon to handle this for us.
In the current version FoxyProxy is doing this without any problems:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en/firefox/addon/foxyproxy-standard/
So try out the Add-On and you will solve this.

Open Firefox.
In the address bar, type about:config. A warning appears.
Click I'll be careful. I promise! A variety of configuration options appears.
In the Filter box, type network.negotiate.
Double-click network.negotiate-auth.allow-proxies to toggle between true and false. The option must be set to false. (It seems counterintuitive, but you set it to false to make it work with the ISA proxy.)
Find the link for detailed understanding https://kb.globalscape.com/KnowledgebaseArticle10522.aspx
Perhaps you must fill the proxy host value with something like the below
username:password#proxy.thing.com
We have a websocket server on port 8080 setup on a Linode box. Chrome and Opera work just fine. Firefox however complains that the operation is insecure.
"The operation is insecure: Code 18"
If I try to create a new WebSocket object in the web console before the page is loaded everything is fine. However, after the page loads something is screwy then I cannot create the object anymore. See the attached screenshot.
I have no idea what operation is insecure or even how to go about diagnosing this.
As you point out in another answer, https:// to ws:// is disallowed by default on firefox.
Going to firefox's about:config and toggling network.websocket.allowInsecureFromHTTPS will get rid of the SecurityError.
I fixed this. The app itself is under SSL but the websocket being accessed is not. Chrome and Opera don't care but Firefox does. According to:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=303952
This is known and is not considered a bug. Mozilla's response: wontfix
Solution, put websocket server under SSL and use wss://
This is a hunch based off limited info, and I probably should put this into a comment, but I don't have enough reputation points to do that yet.
Looking at your log, it seems as if 24 seconds are passing from the receipt of [object Websocket] (time 17:46:36.683) until you get The connection to ws://.....(time 17:47:00:952) error message.The long delay leads me to believe that the server could be timing out and closing the websocket connection. Look at this answer for a potential solution.
Had the same problem and attempted to fix by changing network.websocket.allowInsecureFromHTTPS in about:config which did not work.
Ended up finding this post => Unhandled Rejection (SecurityError): The operation is insecure. On a fresh create-react-app project
Changing this in index.js ended up working for me
serviceWorker.register();
//serviceWorker.unregister();
Open "about:config" url in firefox. Search for allowInsecureFromHTTPS and set it to true
Beside secure ssl context and cross-origin policies, assigning some port can trigger the error as well.
What are valid http ports for Firefox? I don't know precisely, but have to be between 1500 and 64000, or the console will display:
SecurityError: The operation is insecure.
And http links will say:
This address is restricted
This address uses a network port which is normally used for purposes other than Web browsing.
Firefox has canceled the request for your protection.
Firefox gives me connection untrusted for SSL https, and why is that, Chrome shows https in green so, chrome OK, firefox not, why ?
when i install ff 16.0.2, i seem to have same prob with you(untrusted connection especially firefox addon)..For me, it basically cause by my nod32 antivirus, i try go to setting>protocol filtering>ssl>certificates>untick "add the root certificate to known browser''(make sure ff really close)..then tick it again and click OK..done
Please check this:

I thing you can bypass the warning:
You can tell Firefox to bypass these certificate warnings. You should only bypass the warning if you're sure that the site is legitimate. Legitimate public sites will not ask you to do this. An invalid certificate can be an indication of a web page that will defraud you or steal your identity.
1.On the warning page, click Or you can add an exception....
2.Click Add Exception.... The Add Security Exception dialog will appear.
3.Click Get Certificate.
4.Read the text describing the problems with this site.
5.Click Confirm Security Exception if you want to trust the site.
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Secure%20Connection%20Failed
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox%20cannot%20connect%20securely%20because%20the%20site%20uses%20an%20older%20insecure%20version%20of%20the%20SSL%20protocol
If any of these TS won't work, then try to update to FF V7. Don't forget to file a bug in bugzilla with all the necessary information.
However if you wish to access sites without accepting the certificate each time, use the add-on skip-cert-error "https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/skip-cert-error"
I had this weird issue "Your connection is not secure" whereas Chrome works like a charm.
Actually, it is because i let the corporate pac script to manage the proxy setup ticking the option "use system proxy settings". Actually, Firefox don't like it !
When i switch back to the manual proxy settings, all get back to work.
Of course, you need to known proxy params.
