Chromium-based agents (Edge and Chrome) reset connection when a client certificate is used
I am trying to connect to a website that uses an SSL certificate, when the attempt does not include the certificate installed on the local machine in the current user, the connection is successful but, when the user's certificate is selected, through the certificate selection dialog box, the connection is reset by the internet browser, chrome and edge but not Firefox.
The only alternative that allows selecting a certificate and connecting to the website is to use Microsoft Edge in Internet Explorer mode.
The reproduction of both cases is the following:
- Connection cancelled.
a. type the address of the website and return
b. select a certificate through the certificate selection dialog box.
c. the internet browsers show the message can't reach this page and the message ERR_CONNECTION_RESET.
If, in this case, you click on cancel in the certificate selection dialog box, the site is displayed normally but the validation and authentication with the appropriate certificate is lost.
Successful connection.
a. Enter the website address and return
b. Select a certificate using the certificate selection dialog box.
c. Internet browsers display the message can't reach this page and the message ERR_CONNECTION_RESET.
d. Only in the case of Microsoft Edge, activate the (...) Reload in Internet Explorer mode option.
e. The certificate selection dialog box is displayed again. Select the certificate, if there are several, or simply click OK.
f. The website is loaded and the home page is displayed.
Only Firefox connects to the site without any warning or problem, only the certificate is selected, when there is more than one, if there is only one, Firefox connects directly without asking for any kind of selection.
In our case, the certificate only works with Edge in Internet Explorer mode. This situation has caused frustration for our users as they have to take extra steps to be able to connect to our site.
Is there some kind of parameter or setting in the certificates that allows them to work with new versions of Edge?I am trying to connect to a website that uses an SSL certificate, when the attempt does not include the certificate installed on the local machine in the current user, the connection is successful but, when the user's certificate is selected, through the certificate selection dialog box, the connection is reset by the internet browser, chrome and edge but not Firefox.
