3. Description:

 

Network Security Services (NSS) is a set of libraries designed to support

the cross-platform development of security-enabled client and server

applications. Netscape Portable Runtime (NSPR) provides platform

independence for non-GUI operating system facilities.

 

A race condition was found in the way NSS verified certain certificates.

A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash an application using NSS or,

possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running

that application. (CVE-2014-1544)

 

Red Hat would like to thank the Mozilla project for reporting

CVE-2014-1544. Upstream acknowledges Tyson Smith and Jesse Schwartzentruber

as the original reporters.

 

Users of NSS and NSPR are advised to upgrade to these updated packages,

which correct this issue. After installing this update, applications using

NSS or NSPR must be restarted for this update to take effect.

 

4. Solution:

 

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata

relevant to your system have been applied.

 

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the

Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at

https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258

 

5. Bugs fixed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/):

 

1116198 - CVE-2014-1544 nss: Race-condition in certificate verification can lead to Remote code execution (MFSA 2014-63)
