NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libapache2-mod-nss package and not the libapache2-mod-nss package as distributed by Debian.

The NSSCipherSuite option with ciphersuites enabled in mod_nss before 1.0.12 allows remote attackers to bypass application restrictions.
