Firefox users get sec_error_bad_signature over HTTPS
359
Solution 1
Deleting the cert8.db file as originally suggested here ended up being a hit-or-miss fix to the problem. For some users it worked swimmingly; others it did nothing at all. In fact, for some users even uninstalling Firefox and nuking their Firefox APPDATA folders, Registry Entries, and etc. did not fix the error.
While I was unable to determine if it was SHA-1 causing the problem with Firefox users, issuing a new SSL certificate did fix this for everyone. So at the very least that is a workaround...
Solution 2
Today i had a client, which imported an invalid CA-Certificate with the same name (internal CA). This caused the sec_error_bad_signature error.
I removed the wrong CA certificate from Firefox Trusted Certificate store and reimported the correct one.

krisFR almost 9 yearsSHA-1 SSL certificate are obsolete due to weaknesses disvovered in the algorithm. You should re-key your certificate. If you have a SHA-1 certificate, your provider should allow for you to generate a new SHA-256 certificate for free : blog.digicert.com/what-is-sha-2-and-how-it-affects-you

DOOManiac almost 9 yearsI'm aware that SHA-1 is obsolete, and we are working on getting a new one; but is this why Firefox is having problems? If so why would it work just fine for all other Firefox users? And if so, you should submit this as an answer instead of a comment. :) -
krisFR almost 9 yearsAs far as some Firefox works and other not SHA-1 may not be the issue, that's why i wrote just a comment...Every users use the same FF version ? Try to rename or delete the file
