    descriptionTyson Smith and Jed Davis discovered that NSS incorrectly handled memory. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause NSS to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. This update refreshes the NSS package to version 3.23 which includes the latest CA certificate bundle. As a security improvement, this update also modifies NSS behaviour to reject DH key sizes below 1024 bits, preventing a possible downgrade attack. 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.

A remote attacker could use these flaws to crash an application using NSS or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the permission of the user running the application. CVE-2016-8635 nss: small-subgroups attack flaw It was found that Diffie Hellman Client key exchange handling in NSS was vulnerable to small subgroup confinement attack. An attacker could use this flaw to recover private keys by confining the client DH key to small subgroup of the desired group.

    descriptionSeveral vulnerabilities were discovered in NSS, the cryptography library developed by the Mozilla project. - CVE-2015-4000 David Adrian et al. reported that it may be feasible to attack Diffie-Hellman-based cipher suites in certain circumstances, compromising the confidentiality and integrity of data encrypted with Transport Layer Security (TLS). - CVE-2015-7181 CVE-2015-7182 CVE-2016-1950 Tyson Smith, David Keeler, and Francis Gabriel discovered heap-based buffer overflows in the ASN.1 DER parser, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution. - CVE-2015-7575 Karthikeyan Bhargavan discovered that TLS client implementation accepted MD5-based signatures for TLS 1.2 connections with forward secrecy, weakening the intended security strength of TLS connections. - CVE-2016-1938 Hanno Boeck discovered that NSS miscomputed the result of integer division for certain inputs. This could weaken the cryptographic protections provided by NSS. However, NSS implements RSA-CRT leak hardening, so RSA private keys are not directly disclosed by this issue. - CVE-2016-1978 Eric Rescorla discovered a use-after-free vulnerability in the implementation of ECDH-based TLS handshakes, with unknown consequences. - CVE-2016-1979 Tim Taubert discovered a use-after-free vulnerability in ASN.1 DER processing, with application-specific impact. - CVE-2016-2834 Tyson Smith and Jed Davis discovered unspecified memory-safety bugs in NSS. In addition, the NSS library did not ignore environment variables in processes which underwent a SUID/SGID/AT_SECURE transition at process start. In certain system configurations, this allowed local users to escalate their privileges. This update contains further correctness and stability fixes without immediate security impact.

The following packages have been upgraded to a newer upstream version: nss (3.12.3), nss-util (3.12.3). Security Fix(es) : - Multiple buffer handling flaws were found in the way NSS handled cryptographic data from the network. A remote attacker could use these flaws to crash an application using NSS or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the permission of the user running the application. (CVE-2016-2834) - A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the way NSS handled invalid Diffie-Hellman keys. A remote client could use this flaw to crash a TLS/SSL server using NSS. (CVE-2016-5285) - It was found that Diffie Hellman Client key exchange handling in NSS was vulnerable to small subgroup confinement attack. An attacker could use this flaw to recover private keys by confining the client DH key to small subgroup of the desired group. (CVE-2016-8635)

This includes the early key exporter, which can be used if 0-RTT is enabled. Note that there is a difference between TLS 1.3 and key exporters in older versions of TLS. TLS 1.3 does not distinguish between an empty context and no context. - The TLS 1.3 (draft) protocol can be enabled, by defining NSS_ENABLE_TLS_1_3=1 when building NSS. - NSS includes support for the X25519 key exchange algorithm, which is supported and enabled by default in all versions of TLS. Notable Changes : - NSS can no longer be compiled with support for additional elliptic curves. This was previously possible by replacing certain NSS source files. - NSS will now detect the presence of tokens that support additional elliptic curves and enable those curves for use in TLS. Note that this detection has a one-off performance cost, which can be avoided by using the SSL_NamedGroupConfig function to limit supported groups to those that NSS provides. - PKCS#11 bypass for TLS is no longer supported and has been removed. - Support for

    descriptionChristian Holler, Gary Kwong, Jesse Ruderman, Tyson Smith, Timothy Nikkel, Sylvestre Ledru, Julian Seward, Olli Pettay, Karl Tomlinson, Christoph Diehl, Julian Hector, Jan de Mooij, Mats Palmgren, and Tooru Fujisawa discovered multiple memory safety issues in Firefox. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2815, CVE-2016-2818) A buffer overflow was discovered when parsing HTML5 fragments in some circumstances. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2819) A use-after-free was discovered in contenteditable mode in some circumstances. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2821) Jordi Chancel discovered a way to use a persistent menu within a <select> element and place this in an arbitrary location. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to spoof the addressbar contents. (CVE-2016-2822) Armin Razmdjou that the location.host property can be set to an arbitrary string after creating an invalid data: URI. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to bypass some same-origin protections. (CVE-2016-2825) A use-after-free was discovered when processing WebGL content in some circumstances. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2828) Tim McCormack discovered that the permissions notification can show the wrong icon when a page requests several permissions in quick succession. An attacker could potentially exploit this by tricking the user in to giving consent for access to the wrong resource. (CVE-2016-2829) It was discovered that a pointerlock can be created in a fullscreen window without user consent in some circumstances, and this pointerlock cannot be cancelled without quitting Firefox. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service or conduct clickjacking attacks. (CVE-2016-2831) John Schoenick discovered that CSS pseudo-classes can leak information about plugins that are installed but disabled. An attacker could potentially exploit this to fingerprint users. (CVE-2016-2832) Matt Wobensmith discovered that Content Security Policy (CSP) does not block the loading of cross-domain Java applets when specified by policy. An attacker could potentially exploit this to bypass CSP protections and conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. (CVE-2016-2833) In addition, multiple unspecified security issues were discovered in NSS. (CVE-2016-2834). 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.

    descriptionAn update for nss and nss-util is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) 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. The nss-util packages provide utilities for use with the Network Security Services (NSS) libraries. The following packages have been upgraded to a newer upstream version: nss (3.21.3), nss-util (3.21.3). Security Fix(es) : * Multiple buffer handling flaws were found in the way NSS handled cryptographic data from the network. A remote attacker could use these flaws to crash an application using NSS or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the permission of the user running the application. (CVE-2016-2834) * A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the way NSS handled invalid Diffie-Hellman keys. A remote client could use this flaw to crash a TLS/SSL server using NSS. (CVE-2016-5285) * It was found that Diffie Hellman Client key exchange handling in NSS was vulnerable to small subgroup confinement attack. An attacker could use this flaw to recover private keys by confining the client DH key to small subgroup of the desired group. (CVE-2016-8635) Red Hat would like to thank the Mozilla project for reporting CVE-2016-2834. The CVE-2016-8635 issue was discovered by Hubert Kario (Red Hat).
