We are facing SSL/TLS certificate issue. I found this solution (https://github.com/OtterBrowser/otter-browser/issues/550v) but i belive this is for Webkit backend (not for Webengine). So by default accept self signed certificate. Is there any way to completely ignore SSL/TSL error? In about:config 'IgnoreSslError' does not take 'default' or how to assign list?   

Anybody sorted out this?

Hello mad_king.

The old lightweight Opera Presto (12.x version) was my favorite browser.

After reading this Softpedia review (and several others) it seemed like Otter browser with a modern
Blink-WebKit engine was the perfect replacement.

I stopped using Opera Presto because there was no way to disable endless "Security Issue" warning
messages.  (See attached image.)

If I understand your post correctly, are you saying that Otter has the same problem with erroneous
security messages and there is no way to disable this feature?

Basically my intention is just ignore SSL/TLS security. In google chrome, we can ignore SSL errors. I am expecting similar behavior.
In about.config, we can ignore SSL error by setting IgnoreSSL but it takes list so my question is how to assign list.

Either we need to assign self signed certificate or ignore SSL error. I am trying to ignore it.

IMO we can disable security message in otter.

Check this thread.

Security\IgnoreSslErrors will be set in your config/override.ini file.

I had to google the acronym IMO:
"IMO has one popular meaning. It only means in my opinion."

There must be an about:config edit or a box I can untick that will completely disable those
security warning messages.  Before I download and install Otter, I need a 100% certain yes
or no about disabling those messages.  If yes, give me the exact procedure.

I know a lot about browsers because I've used several dozen.  However, I am not a programming
expert.  I can easily edit about:config, but I cannot write code.  If there is a way to disable
those security messages it must be relatively simple.

Thanks guys.

@beastie Does config/override.ini take a "*" for *everything*?

You can disable through NetworkManager.cpp by commenting code. I am not sure whether its possible through about.config.

It does not appear to have any effect of QsslError for webengine backend.

Managing Certificates
Qt WebEngine uses its own network stack, and therefore QSslConfiguration is not used to open SSL connections. Instead, Qt WebEngine uses the root CA certificates from the operating system to validate the peer's certificate.
The WebEngineCertificateError::error and QWebEngineCertificateError::Error enumerations provide information about the types of certificate errors that might occur. The errors can be handled by using the WebEngineView::certificateError QML method or by reimplementing the QWebEnginePage::certificateError function.

.ini files are just configuration files. There's no programming involved at all. And anyway modifying them is only necessary if you want to customize/organize/optimize what Otter generates automatically.

You should get an error page when visiting some websites. If you click the Advanced then Load Insecure Page buttons, Otter will automatically add an entry for that domain to the file in this form:

Code: [Select]

[domain]
Security\IgnoreSslErrors="<Base 64 digest>"

You mean as a global override? I believe not. It works for subdomains though (e.g. [%2A.wikipedia.org]).
