Mozilla has learned that a fraudulent SSL certificate for websites belonging to Google has been issued by DigiNotar. This is not a Firefox-specific issue and the certificate has now been canceled which should protect most people.
Mozilla has released an update to Firefox to further protect you. Please update as soon as possible by following the steps in the Updating Firefox article.
You can manually delete this certificate from any version of Firefox with these steps:
- In the Menu bar at the top of the screen, click and then select or , depending on your macOS version.Click the menu button
and select .
- Click on the panel
- Select the tab
- Click
- In the Certificate Manager window, select the tab
- Scroll down to DigiNotar and select the DigiNotar Root CA
- Click
- Click to confirm
- Because the certificate is "built-in" it will be distrusted but not deleted. Distrusting the certificate has the same effect as deleting it.
