The bug fixes in NSS + 3.15.5 are described in the "Bugs Fixed" section below. + +.. _distribution_information: + +`Distribution Information <#distribution_information>`__ +-------------------------------------------------------- + +.. container:: + + The HG tag is NSS_3_15_5_RTM.

Two SSL socket + options, ``SSL_ENABLE_NPN`` and ``SSL_ENABLE_ALPN``, can be used to control whether NPN or + ALPN (or both) should be used for application layer protocol negotiation. + - Added the TLS `padding + extension <https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-agl-tls-padding>`__. The extension type + value is 35655, which may change when an official extension type value is assigned by IANA. + NSS automatically adds the padding extension to ClientHello when necessary. + - Added a new macro ``CERT_LIST_TAIL``, defined in ``certt.h``, for getting the tail of a + ``CERTCertList``. + +.. _notable_changes_in_nss_3.15.5: + +`Notable Changes in NSS 3.15.5 <#notable_changes_in_nss_3.15.5>`__ +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +.. container:: + + - `Bug 950129 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=950129>`__: Improve the OCSP + fetching policy when verifying OCSP responses + - `Bug 949060 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=949060>`__: Validate the ``iov`` + input argument (an array of ``PRIOVec`` structures) of ``ssl_WriteV`` (called via + ``PR_Writev``). Applications should still take care when converting ``struct iov`` to + ``PRIOVec`` because the ``iov_len`` members of the two structures have different types + (``size_t`` vs. ``int``). ``size_t`` is unsigned and may be larger than ``int``. + +.. _bugs_fixed_in_nss_3.15.5: + +`Bugs fixed in NSS 3.15.5 <#bugs_fixed_in_nss_3.15.5>`__ +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +.. container:: + + A complete list of all bugs resolved in this release can be obtained at + https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?resolution=FIXED&classification=Components&query_format=advanced&target_milestone=3.15.5&product=NSS + +`Compatibility <#compatibility>`__ +---------------------------------- + +.. container:: + + NSS 3.15.5 shared libraries are backward compatible with all older NSS 3.x shared libraries. A + program linked with older NSS 3.x shared libraries will work with NSS 3.15.5 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 with + `bugzilla.mozilla.org <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=NSS>`__ (product NSS).
