Log Message:
Update to 3.23
Changelog:
The NSS team has released Network Security Services (NSS) 3.23, which is a minor
release.
The following security-relevant bug has been resolved in NSS 3.23.
Users are encouraged to upgrade immediately.
* Bug 1245528 (CVE-2016-1950):
Fixed a heap-based buffer overflow related to the parsing of certain ASN.1
structures. An attacker could create a specially-crafted certificate which,
when parsed by NSS, would cause a crash or execution of arbitrary code with
the permissions of the user.
New functionality:
* ChaCha20/Poly1305 cipher and TLS cipher suites now supported
(bug 917571, bug 1227905)
* Experimental-only support TLS 1.3 1-RTT mode (draft-11).
This code is not ready for production use.
New Functions:
* SSL_SetDowngradeCheckVersion - Set maximum version for new ServerRandom
anti-downgrade mechanism
Notable Changes:
* The copy of SQLite shipped with NSS has been updated to version 3.10.2
(bug 1234698)
* The list of TLS extensions sent in the TLS handshake has been reordered
to improve compatibility of the Extended Master Secret feature
with servers (bug 1243641)
* The build time environment variable NSS_ENABLE_ZLIB has been renamed
to NSS_SSL_ENABLE_ZLIB (Bug 1243872).
* The build time environment variable NSS_DISABLE_CHACHAPOLY was added,
which can be used to prevent compilation of the ChaCha20/Poly1305 code.
* The following CA certificates were Removed
- Staat der Nederlanden Root CA
- NetLock Minositett Kozjegyzoi (Class QA) Tanusitvanykiado
- NetLock Kozjegyzoi (Class A) Tanusitvanykiado
