[Bug] White screen when making HTTPS request & ignoring invalid cert

• Insomnia Version: 5.16.2 - 6.0.1 (6.0.2 -6.0.3 beta crash for me)
• Operating System: CentOS 7 (AppImage)

Details

I am connecting to a service on https://localhost:8000/ - it uses a self-signed SSL cert. I have SSL cert validation disabled in Insomnia. In 5.15.0, everything works fine. In 5.16.2 and later, a white screen shows up when a request is made (or the GraphQL schema is fetched). 5.16.0 and 5.16.1 do not launch for me.

Reproduction:

I’m not sure of the best steps, but in increasing specificity:

1. Connect to a regular HTTPS service with SSL validation disabled
2. Connect to a self-signed cert HTTPS service with SSL validation disabled
3. Connect to a GraphQL server with a self-signed cert with SSL validation disabled.
4. Same steps as above, but try on Linux

If the app crashes, is it possible that something better could happen than just a white screen?

@gschier no, it just says “DevTools was disconnected from the page” when the screen goes white. Also, if I run Insomnia via the terminal, I get some unrelated log messages there, but no errors.

@gschier I’m still getting a white screen on the latest version. Self-signed cert doesn’t seem to be the problem, as it’s trying to fetch a GraphQL schema from a URL with an actual cert.
