Firefox browser nightly build adds a new Certificates Viewer page

Firefox browser nightly builds version has launched a new Certificates Viewer page. The improved Certificates Viewer page is mainly to provide more detailed certificate chain information. It is difficult to say whether this update is related to the Kazakhstan certificate. This detailed certificate chain information helps users quickly check the digital certificate of the website, which can be more easily detected by users in the case of Kazakhstan.

Now the user connects to the encrypted website and then clicks the lock button in the address bar and then clicks on the certificate to see the new Certificates Viewer page provided by Firefox. The new certificate viewing page more intuitively displays website users, mid-level issuers, and root certificate issuers, and can quickly see their names without having to manually expand them.

From the perspective of user security, if there is a certified digital certificate to issue a violation certificate, it may be possible for the user to confirm the problem. However, after all, viewing digital certificates may only be done by professional users. It is unlikely that ordinary users will often check whether the certificate issuer is abnormal.
