Upgrade Debian:8
nss
to version 3.12.3-1 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream nss
package and not the nss
package as distributed by Debian
.
See How to fix?
for Debian:8
relevant fixed versions and status.
The Network Security Services (NSS) library before 3.12.3, as used in Firefox; GnuTLS before 2.6.4 and 2.7.4; OpenSSL 0.9.8 through 0.9.8k; and other products support MD2 with X.509 certificates, which might allow remote attackers to spoof certificates by using MD2 design flaws to generate a hash collision in less than brute-force time. NOTE: the scope of this issue is currently limited because the amount of computation required is still large.
