How to manage (remove) Safari SSL warning exceptions?

I always thought bypassing SSL certificate warnings was a one-time exception that won't persist:



But after visiting the site via this warning page link for testing purposes I'm allowed to open it again next time without any warning, which is honestly something I wouldn't expect (there's no warning I'm adding some kind of permanent exception to the system)!


Where can I manage those exceptions?


I'd intuitively go looking under the "padlock" icon with SSL details in the address bar (where you normally see certificate details et al.), nonetheless these exceptions don't show the padlock as they're not secure so there's nowhere to click for certificate/trust details. These certs are also not anywhere in the keychain so no way to remove them or reset trust settings.


I see the sites stored in BypassedInvalidCertificateWarning.plist in Safari 16's Container folder as per https://apple.stackexchange.com/a/441530 — but is there any UI for managing this that I'm missing?


Thanks for any help.
