When the certificate supplied by a webserver changes, the old security status, certificate and certificate path are still shown in open tabs

Reported by burnc...@gmail.com, Jan 17 2018

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/63.0.3239.132 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Connect to webserver with "insecure" certificate path (e.g. sha 1). Note the strike-through https text.
2. Change the certificate on the server to an "acceptable" one.
3. Verify from separate system that the certificate is acceptable and the "<padlock> Secure" is displayed.
4. Refresh browser. Note that the strike-through https is still shown and that the old certificate and path are displayed when "view certificate" is chosen.

What is the expected behavior?
The secure status should be updated. One would assume that the connection to the webserver needs to redo a full SSL handshake.

What went wrong?
Is it being cached for open tabs? Is this a security issue? What happens when "downgrading" security?

Did this work before? N/A
