Debian Security Advisory DSA-3033-1 security@debian.org

- - -------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : nss
CVE ID : CVE-2014-1568
Antoine Delignat-Lavaud from Inria discovered an issue in the way NSS
(the Mozilla Network Security Service library) was parsing ASN.1 data
used in signatures, making it vulnerable to a signature forgery attack.
An attacker could craft ASN.1 data to forge RSA certificates with a
valid certification chain to a trusted CA.
For the stable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in
version 2:3.14.5-1+deb7u2.
For the testing distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in
version 2:3.17.1.
For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
version 2:3.17.1.
We recommend that you upgrade your nss packages.
