we are using self-signed certificates in our linux environment. To manage those within CEF we have implemented our own certificate handling including the ability to import the certificate into the nss database. This handling was based on CefRequestHandler::OnCertificateError. After upgrading to version 90.6.7, the error handler is no longer being called for our self-signed certificates. Instead the CefLoadHandler::OnLoadError function is called with an error message
. Same behaviour could be observed when using cefsimple with the URL.Failed to load URL https://.../index.html with error ERR_INSECURE_RESPONSE (-501).
We have tested this with version 80.0.3987 and cefsimple and it loads the URL without any problems. For the version 90.6.7 the URL in cefsimple loads only when the "ignore-certificate-errors" switch is used.
Why is the CefRequestHandler::OnCertificateError function no longer being called in 90.6.7 for self-signed certificates?
Thanks in advance!
