That is a bit confusing but harmless. What happens is that Tor Browser
checks for add-on updates but we prevent pinging Mozilla servers for
Torbutton and Tor Launcher by setting the update url to
`data:text/plain,`. The code is complaining then that cert validation
fails as it expects an HTTPS URL and thus a certificate.
