[USN-2864-1] NSS vulnerability

Severity Medium
Affected Packages 5
CVEs 1
Info Packages Vulnerabilities

NSS could be made to expose sensitive information over the network.

Karthikeyan Bhargavan and Gaetan Leurent discovered that NSS incorrectly
allowed MD5 to be used for TLS 1.2 connections. If a remote attacker were
able to perform a machine-in-the-middle attack, this flaw could be exploited to
view sensitive information.
