NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream openjdk-8 package and not the openjdk-8 package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:unstable relevant fixed versions and status.

Mozilla Network Security Services (NSS) before 3.20.2, as used in Mozilla Firefox before 43.0.2 and Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.5.2, does not reject MD5 signatures in Server Key Exchange messages in TLS 1.2 Handshake Protocol traffic, which makes it easier for man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof servers by triggering a collision.
