BurnSuite website SSL error

Muhammad | Last updated: Oct 24, 2022 07:57AM UTC

I have configured Firefox to used Burp as proxy and everything works fine, except for one website. At the first "get request" everything works as it should be, that is, passed the traffic to burp and then i forwarded it. But, after certain traffic get forwarded, Burp-suite stop receiving any traffic and Firefox shows the following: """SSL Error (SSL failed). A secure SSL session could not be established with the Web Site: "". This is typically caused by a Web Site that is not configured to accept SSL connections, or the Proxy does not trust the Web Site's certificate authority, or else the Proxy does not support client certificate authentication requests from the origin server.""" I'm sure that my cert is good because I'm able to forward browser traffic to Burp for other websites. Anyone can help me understand, why i get this error for specific websites??

Do you have the same issue using Burp's browser? - https://portswigger.net/burp/documentation/desktop/functions/burps-browser Is there a corporate proxy or firewall on your network that restricts certain sites?
