expired certificate for linked images

I went to https://www.dslreports.com/ and none of the linked images loaded. I cleared cookies and restarted in safe mode and neither helped.

I thought I'd look at the developer console: >[Exception... "Favicon at "https://i.dslr.net/logos/f/favicon-16x16.png" failed to load." nsresult: "0x805a1ff5 (<unknown>)" location: "JS frame :: resource:///modules/FaviconLoader.jsm :: onStopRequest :: line 241" data: no]

I then tried to go to: https://i.dslr.net/logos/f/favicon-16x16.png

It gave me warnings and I finally got the image after I accepted the risk: >Websites prove their identity via certificates, which are valid for a set time period. The certificate for i.dslr.net expired on 2022-02-07. > >Error code: SEC_ERROR_EXPIRED_CERTIFICATE

It works until I close the browser. Didn't there used to be a way to permanently store exceptions? Shouldn't the error be more visible for linked images?

Yes but shouldn't the browser provide that feedback?

Good detective work.

The preference for this in about:config is security.certerrors.permanentOverride (defaults to true, at least on Windows). However, unless this site is shutting down, it probably will be fixed pretty quickly.

It would be nice if a "broken" embedded image had a way to show more detail. However, I don't know the odds of something like that getting implemented.
