A flaw was found in the way NSS verified certain ECDSA (Elliptic Curve

Digital Signature Algorithm) signatures. Under certain conditions, an

attacker could use this flaw to conduct signature forgery attacks.

(CVE-2015-2730)

 

Red Hat would like to thank the Mozilla project for reporting this issue.

Upstream acknowledges Watson Ladd as the original reporter of this issue.

 

All nss-softokn users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages,

which contain a backported patch to correct this issue.
