Comment (by archpaladin1):

 I looked, and there is a file /boot/common/ssl/certs/cacert.pem.  Renaming
 or moving this file did allow the webpage to load, so your workaround is
 valid.  I also suspect that putting in the certificate information for the
 self-signed CA in question would also work (and keep SSL checks from being
 completely disabled), but I didn't try that.

 Please keep this case open until a proper solution is developed.  It seems
 there should be a way to proceed despite not verifying the cert, as well
 as a good way to import a cert into the list of known CAs.
