I’m a web developer working on an app running in Docker on my MacBook. Chrome, Edge and Safari trust the self-signed certificate that has been imported into the Mac’s root certificate store and have no security issues, but when I try and access the web app, I’m hit with “Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead” and the error code is MOZILLA_PKIX_ERROR_CA_CERT_USED_AS_END_ENTITY

I really miss Firefox, particularly the multi-account containers feature. What do I need to do so that Firefox will trust my certificate for my local web app?

    You can import a certificate authority through settings -> security -> view certificates. I don’t remember if this works with self-signed certificates though. You can also manually add exceptions there.
