    The nss and nspr packages have been upgraded to upstream version
    3.16.1 and 4.10.6 respectively, which provide a number of bug fixes
    and enhancements over the previous versions. (BZ#1110857, BZ#1110860)
    
    This update also fixes the following bugs :
    
    * Previously, when the output.log file was not present on the system,
    the shell in the Network Security Services (NSS) specification handled
    test failures incorrectly as false positive test results.
    Consequently, certain utilities, such as 'grep', could not handle
    failures properly. This update improves error detection in the
    specification file, and 'grep' and other utilities now handle missing
    files or crashes as intended. (BZ#1035281)
    
    * Prior to this update, a subordinate Certificate Authority (CA) of
    the ANSSI agency incorrectly issued an intermediate certificate
    installed on a network monitoring device. As a consequence, the
    monitoring device was enabled to act as an MITM (Man in the Middle)
    proxy performing traffic management of domain names or IP addresses
    that the certificate holder did not own or control. The trust in the
    intermediate certificate to issue the certificate for an MITM device
    has been revoked, and such a device can no longer be used for MITM
    attacks. (BZ#1042684)
    
    * Due to a regression, MD5 certificates were rejected by default
    because Network Security Services (NSS) did not trust MD5
    certificates. With this update, MD5 certificates are supported in Red
    Hat Enterprise Linux 5. (BZ#11015864)
    
    Users of nss and nspr are advised to upgrade to these updated
    packages, which correct these issues and add these enhancements."

    "Updated nss and nspr packages that fix multiple security issues,
    several bugs, and add various enhancements are now available for Red
    Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
    
    The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having
    Critical security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS)
    base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for
    each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section.
    
    Network Security Services (NSS) is a set of libraries designed to
    support the cross-platform development of security-enabled client and
    server applications. Netscape Portable Runtime (NSPR) provides
    platform independence for non-GUI operating system facilities.
    
    A race condition was found in the way NSS verified certain
    certificates. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash an
    application using NSS or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the
    privileges of the user running that application. (CVE-2014-1544)
    
    A flaw was found in the way TLS False Start was implemented in NSS. An
    attacker could use this flaw to potentially return unencrypted
    information from the server. (CVE-2013-1740)
    
    A race condition was found in the way NSS implemented session ticket
    handling as specified by RFC 5077. An attacker could use this flaw to
    crash an application using NSS or, in rare cases, execute arbitrary
    code with the privileges of the user running that application.
    (CVE-2014-1490)
    
    It was found that NSS accepted weak Diffie-Hellman Key exchange (DHKE)
    parameters. This could possibly lead to weak encryption being used in
    communication between the client and the server. (CVE-2014-1491)
    
    An out-of-bounds write flaw was found in NSPR. A remote attacker could
    potentially use this flaw to crash an application using NSPR or,
    possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user
    running that application. This NSPR flaw was not exposed to web
    content in any shipped version of Firefox. (CVE-2014-1545)
    
    It was found that the implementation of Internationalizing Domain
    Names in Applications (IDNA) hostname matching in NSS did not follow
    the RFC 6125 recommendations. This could lead to certain invalid
    certificates with international characters to be accepted as valid.
    (CVE-2014-1492)
    
    Red Hat would like to thank the Mozilla project for reporting the
    CVE-2014-1544, CVE-2014-1490, CVE-2014-1491, and CVE-2014-1545 issues.
    Upstream acknowledges Tyson Smith and Jesse Schwartzentruber as the
    original reporters of CVE-2014-1544, Brian Smith as the original
    reporter of CVE-2014-1490, Antoine Delignat-Lavaud and Karthikeyan

    descriptionAn updated rhev-hypervisor6 package that fixes one security issue is now available. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having Moderate security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section. The rhev-hypervisor6 package provides a Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor ISO disk image. The Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor is a dedicated Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) hypervisor. It includes everything necessary to run and manage virtual machines: a subset of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux operating environment and the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Agent. Note: Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor is only available for the Intel 64 and AMD64 architectures with virtualization extensions. It was found that NSS accepted weak Diffie-Hellman Key exchange (DHKE) parameters. This could possibly lead to weak encryption being used in communication between the client and the server. (CVE-2014-1491) Red Hat would like to thank the Mozilla project for reporting the CVE-2014-1491 issue. Upstream acknowledges Antoine Delignat-Lavaud and Karthikeyan Bhargavan as the original reporters of CVE-2014-1491. This update includes changes to the rhev-hypervisor component : * The most recent build of rhev-hypervisor is included in version 3.4.1. (BZ#1118298) This updated package also provides updated components that include fixes for various security issues. These issues have no security impact on Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor itself, however. The security fixes included in this update address the following CVE numbers : CVE-2014-4699 and CVE-2014-4943 (kernel issues) CVE-2014-4607 (lzo issue) CVE-2013-1740, CVE-2014-1490, CVE-2014-1492, CVE-2014-1545, and CVE-2014-1544 (nss and nspr issues) Users of the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor are advised to upgrade to this updated package.

    descriptionAbhishek Arya discovered that NSPR incorrectly handled certain console functions. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause NSPR to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. The default compiler options for affected releases should reduce the vulnerability to a denial of service. Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

    descriptionA race condition was found in the way NSS verified certain certificates. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash an application using NSS or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running that application. (CVE-2014-1544) A flaw was found in the way TLS False Start was implemented in NSS. An attacker could use this flaw to potentially return unencrypted information from the server. (CVE-2013-1740) A race condition was found in the way NSS implemented session ticket handling as specified by RFC 5077. An attacker could use this flaw to crash an application using NSS or, in rare cases, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running that application. (CVE-2014-1490) It was found that NSS accepted weak Diffie-Hellman Key exchange (DHKE) parameters. This could possibly lead to weak encryption being used in communication between the client and the server. (CVE-2014-1491) An out-of-bounds write flaw was found in NSPR. A remote attacker could potentially use this flaw to crash an application using NSPR or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running that application. This NSPR flaw was not exposed to web content in any shipped version of Firefox. (CVE-2014-1545) It was found that the implementation of Internationalizing Domain Names in Applications (IDNA) hostname matching in NSS did not follow the RFC 6125 recommendations. This could lead to certain invalid certificates with international characters to be accepted as valid. (CVE-2014-1492) In addition, the nss package has been upgraded to upstream version 3.16.1, and the nspr package has been upgraded to upstream version 4.10.6. These updated packages provide a number of bug fixes and enhancements over the previous versions. After installing this update, applications using NSS or NSPR must be restarted for this update to take effect.

    descriptionUpdated nss and nspr packages that fix multiple security issues, several bugs, and add various enhancements are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Moderate security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section. Network Security Services (NSS) is a set of libraries designed to support the cross-platform development of security-enabled client and server applications. A flaw was found in the way TLS False Start was implemented in NSS. An attacker could use this flaw to potentially return unencrypted information from the server. (CVE-2013-1740) A race condition was found in the way NSS implemented session ticket handling as specified by RFC 5077. An attacker could use this flaw to crash an application using NSS or, in rare cases, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running that application. (CVE-2014-1490) It was found that NSS accepted weak Diffie-Hellman Key exchange (DHKE) parameters. This could possibly lead to weak encryption being used in communication between the client and the server. (CVE-2014-1491) An out-of-bounds write flaw was found in NSPR. A remote attacker could potentially use this flaw to crash an application using NSPR or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running that application.
