+
+`Compatibility <#compatibility>`__
+----------------------------------
+
+.. container::
+
+ NSS 3.77 shared libraries are backwards-compatible with all older NSS 3.x shared
+ libraries. A program linked with older NSS 3.x shared libraries will work with
+ this new version of the shared libraries without recompiling or
+ relinking. Furthermore, applications that restrict their use of NSS APIs to the
+ functions listed in NSS Public Functions will remain compatible with future
+ versions of the NSS shared libraries.
+
+`Feedback <#feedback>`__
+------------------------
+
+.. container::
+
+ Bugs discovered should be reported by filing a bug report on
+ `bugzilla.mozilla.org <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=NSS>`__ (product NSS).
+
+`Notes <#notes>`__
+------------------
+
+.. container::
+
+ For users upgrading from NSS < 3.76.1 or NSS < 3.68.3, this release improves
+ the stability of NSS when used in a multi-threaded environment. In
+ particular, it fixes memory safety violations that can occur when PKCS#11
+ tokens are removed while in use (CVE-2022-1097). We presume that with enough
+ effort these memory safety violations are exploitable.
