Is this a bug?
here's the thing, when a Insecure connection page appears, i pressed back button instead of advanced button, now when i press the forward button (navigation), the page loads on it's own.

Might be. Or not.
What Extensions are you running please ? What Security Software are you running ?
There is security software like Avast/AVG, Kaspersky, BitDefender and ESET that intercept secure connections and send their own certificate. Sometimes McAfee. If you are running any of the above software please check their community forum for a work around to apply settings.
These pages are also for the errors you may have besides relating to the above.

I don't have any anti-virus / anti-spyware installed. Freshly installed Firefox, no extensions and add-ons.
What kind of error message (blue code) do you see on that error page?
Can you attach a screenshot?

- use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot
You can check if there is more detail available about the issuer of the certificate.
- click the "Advanced" button show more detail
- click the blue error text (SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER) to show the certificate chain
- click "Copy text to clipboard" and paste the base64 certificate chain text in a reply
If clicking the blue error text doesn't provide the certificate chain then try these steps to inspect the certificate.
- open the Servers tab in the Certificate Manager
- Options/Preferences -> Privacy & Security
Certificates: View Certificates -> Servers: "Add Exception"
- Options/Preferences -> Privacy & Security
- paste the URL of the website (https://xxx.xxx) in it's Location field
Let Firefox retrieve the certificate -> "Get Certificate"
- click the "View" button and inspect the certificate
You can see detail like the issuer of the certificate and intermediate certificates in the Details tab.
