Description of problem:

Mozilla is investigating an issue with a certificate which may cause firefox extensions to stop work working or fail to install.

This is a report to track the issue and to collect information about the impacts for fedora users.

My add-ons are currently OK, but this might be because there signature was checked while it was still valid.

Comment 1 samoht0 2019-05-04 12:01:34 UTC
Just mentioning: Firefox extensions on a android device, I'm using, are broken. So my guess about the signature check.

Observed that in real-time that the installed add-ons went AWOL just as
I was browsing an hour or so ago.  Hopefully, this will be resolved quickly
(on the Mozilla side only, or assisted with a new build?).
