http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1134127 Bug ID: 1134127 Summary: Firefox certificate issue causing add-ons to be disabled Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: x86-64 OS: openSUSE Factory Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Firefox Assignee: bnc-team-mozilla@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: sb56637@gmail.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- Hi, it looks like Firefox just had a major issue with an expired certificate, causing it to automatically disable all add-ons and preventing the installation of new ones. https://discourse.mozilla.org/t/certificate-issue-causing-add-ons-to-be-disa...

Certificate issue causing add-ons to be disabled or fail to install:
12:50 p.m. UTC / 03:50 a.m. PDT: We rolled-out a fix for release, beta and nightly users on Desktop. The fix will be automatically applied in the background within the next few hours, you don’t need to take active steps.
In order to be able to provide this fix on short notice, we are using the Studies system. You can check if you have studies enabled by going to Firefox Preferences -> Privacy & Security -> Allow Firefox to install and run studies.
You can disable studies again after your add-ons have been re-enabled.
We are working on a general fix that doesn’t need to rely on this and will keep you updated.
Would it be possible to push out an urgent update to the Tumbleweed Updates repo? Or any other temporary workaround recommended for openSUSE users? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
