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 flaw was found in the way the ASN.1 (Abstract Syntax Notation One)

decoder in NSS handled zero length items. This flaw could cause the decoder

to incorrectly skip or replace certain items with a default value, or could

cause an application to crash if, for example, it received a

specially-crafted OCSP (Online Certificate Status Protocol) response.

(CVE-2012-0441)

 

The nspr package has been upgraded to upstream version 4.9.1, which

provides a number of bug fixes and enhancements over the previous version.

(BZ#833762)

 

The nss-util package has been upgraded to upstream version 3.13.5, which

provides a number of bug fixes and enhancements over the previous version.

(BZ#833763)

 

The nss package has been upgraded to upstream version 3.13.5, which

provides a number of bug fixes and enhancements over the previous version.

(BZ#834100)

 

All NSS, NSPR, and nss-util users are advised to upgrade to these updated

packages, which correct these issues and add these enhancements. After

installing this update, applications using NSS, NSPR, or nss-util must be

restarted for this update to take effect.

 

4. Solution:

 

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
