Can't access addons.cdn.mozilla.net

When I try to download addons they have errors, and some pages don't allow access due to certificate problems. On the network tool it shows addons.cdn.mozilla.net has a bad certificate and won't accept anything from it.

hi, what error message/error code are you receiving when you try to access https://addons.cdn.mozilla.net/static/img/app-icons/med/firefox.png directly?

more options

Secure Connection Failed

An error occurred during a connection to addons.cdn.mozilla.net. Peer's certificate has an invalid signature. (Error code: sec_error_bad_signature)

   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.

I'm using Windows 10, but after I did a refresh I couldn't download any addons and a lot of pages stopped working. In the Network tool it flagged the addons.cdn.mozilla.net.
