Summary: Wine browse can not handle self-signed certificates
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.2
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org
        ReportedBy: n.engyozov@taxundo.com
Currently integrated wine browser cannot open pages on servers that using
self-signed (or other unsecure) certificates. Wine is using gecko for html
rendering and most recent version of gecko doesn't afford an opportunity to
disable security check of certificate validity, but there is a way you can
import (temporary or not) self-sgned certficates.
How to reproduce:
Try to open webpage that uses self-signed certificate: "winexplore iexplore
https://some_site.com" and result is window that says "some_site.com uses an
invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because it is self
signed. (Error_code: sec_error_ca_cert_invlid)" and button "OK"
Actual result:
It's impossible to browse sites that use self-signed certificates
Expected results:
An interface or other possibility to import and trust self-signed certificates
in wine browser or wine to use additional installed browser
Installing and using Firefox for windows is not decision - when some software
needs functions of system browser it calls wine integrated browser, but not
installed Firefox
