wierd SSL_ERROR_BAD_CERT_DOMAIN on wildcard domain
I get the error: SSL_ERROR_BAD_CERT_DOMAIN on my wildcard certificate, but according to the details text I believe it should be correct:
"sub.example.td1 uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is only valid for the following names: example.td2, *.example.td2, *.*.example.td2, *.*.*.example.td2, example.td1, *.example.td1, *.*.example.td1, *.*.*.example.td1"

I have already added the CA to my list of trust, so it's NOT a UNKNOWN_ISSUER,
What further detail do you see if you click the blue error code (screenshot)?

sub.example.td1 uses an invalid security certificate.
The certificate is only valid for the following names: example.td2, *.example.td2, *.*.example.td2, *.*.*.example.td2, example.td1, *.example.td1, *.*.example.td1, *.*.*.example.td1
Is sub.example.td1 the only domain you've found that seems to match the SAN list (*.example.td1) that does not work, or is there a problem with other domains on the list?
Does it pass a test such as: https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/ (assumes the site is accessible from the web)

The same problem happens if I use .td2, it works fine on chrome.
according to ssllabs: "If trust issues are ignored: B", but it's a private CA, witch I have added to both Windows & Firefox, so there is no trust chain issues. Other than that there does not seem to be any problems. Firefox 53 / Win 7 is OK

In case it's some obscure legacy setting we're not thinking of, could you:
New Profile Test
This takes about 3 minutes, plus the time to test your site.
Inside Firefox, type or paste about:profiles in the address bar and press Enter/Return to load it.
Click the Create a New Profile button, then click Next. Assign a name like Sept2017, ignore the option to relocate the profile folder, and click the Finish button.
After creating the profile, scroll down to it and click the Set as default profile button below that profile, then scroll back up and click the Restart normally button. (There are some other buttons, but I think those are still "under construction" so please ignore them.)
Firefox should exit and then start up using the new profile, which will just look brand new.
Does Firefox handle the certificate any better in the new profile?
When you are done with the experiment, open the about:profiles page again, click the Set as default profile button for your normal profile, then click the Restart normally button to get back to it.

Same problem in the new profile.

CA cert: https://1.ca.avalitan.com/ca.crt Sites: https://sub.avalitan.moe/ https://sub.avalitan.com/

sub.avalitan.moe uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate is unknown. The server might not be sending the appropriate intermediate certificates. An additional root certificate may need to be imported. The certificate is only valid for the following names:
avalitan.com, *.avalitan.com, *.*.avalitan.com, *.*.*.avalitan.com, avalitan.moe, *.avalitan.moe, *.*.avalitan.moe, *.*.*.avalitan.moe

the first link(to ca.crt) is the root certificate, and SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER is because the root certificate is not installed, With the root certificate(https://1.ca.avalitan.com/ca.crt) installed I get the error: SSL_ERROR_BAD_CERT_DOMAIN.

Okay, I imported the signing certificate as a trusted authority (see attached screenshot).
I used this method: click the Add Exception button, in the dialog click the View button, in the Certificate viewer click the Details tab, select the signing certificate one level up from the site certificate and click Export, use the default .crt format. Then in Options, Advanced, Certificates, click Certificate Manager, click the Authorities tab, click the Import button, and import the file you exported, then check the first box to trust the cert for websites.
After that, I get a nice green padlock on https://sub.avalitan.com/ (Firefox 55.0.3).
But I get the bad cert domain error for https://sub.avalitan.moe/ which is strange because it is on the SAN list. This matches your original post as its the second TLD in the set.
A search related to wildcard certs only turned up the following, which dates way back to Firefox 37: https://www.fxsitecompat.com/en-CA/docs/2015/certs-with-an-absolute-dns-id-or-irregular-wildcard-are-no-longer-supported/
Is this a new issue in your experience or did not you test this in previous versions of Firefox?

If you wanted to test Firefox 36, you can use the "Portable" edition, which installs into a folder and doesn't touch your main Firefox folders.
