No. Any NSS environment variable would disable a feature completely, not result in it causing a warning. Any variable or preference that results in a warning would be a PSM feature, not an NSS feature. > My understanding is that if someone were to try to use a 512-bit cert in > Firefox they would get a warning message to the effect that the > connection is not secure, but the user can click to continue.

If any such feature exists, it is a PSM feature. It is more likely to be controlled by a "hidden preference" than an environment variable. > If there is such an environment variable, please let me know the exact > usage so that I can communicate this to CAs for testing purposes. > > I will greatly appreciate help with this.
