EZProxy stopped working

hdavid.stern@gmail.c · July 30, 2015

EZProxy still works for Chrome and Safari for off-campus validation, but Firefox now has the following error message:
Secure Connection Failed

An error occurred during a connection to login2.sxu.edu. SSL received a weak ephemeral Diffie-Hellman key in Server Key Exchange handshake message. (Error code: ssl_error_weak_server_ephemeral_dh_key)

The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.

Why would this only happen for Firefox?

nothing to do with Zotero (so generally better to ask on Firefox help), but since you're here anyway: Firefox is stricter about SSL than other browsers to protect against vulnerabilities. You can read some more about this here:

which also includes a hidden preference option to disable it, though really SXU should fix it.
