These are old (and vulnerable) SSLv3 certificates, so by default Firefox blocks them without a possibility of an exception. You can change about:config settings to enable it (here be dragons though):

  • Change "security.tls.version.min" from 1 to 0
  • Change "security.tls.version.fallback-limit" from 1 to 0

Source, and further reading: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21024526/ssl-error-illegal-parameter-alert

But if you can do anything about it, you should definitely try to upgrade to the latest version of TLS.
