The bug fixes in NSS + 3.19.2.1 are described in the "Security Advisories" section below. + +.. _distribution_information: + +`Distribution Information <#distribution_information>`__ +-------------------------------------------------------- + +.. container:: + + The HG tag is NSS_3_19_2_1_RTM. NSS 3.19.2.1 requires NSPR 4.10.10 or newer. + + NSS 3.19.2.1 and NSPR 4.10.10 source distributions are available on ftp.mozilla.org for secure + HTTPS download: + + - Source tarballs: + https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/security/nss/releases/NSS_3_19_2_1_RTM/src/ + https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/nspr/releases/v4.10.10/src/ + +.. _security_advisories: + +`Security Advisories <#security_advisories>`__ +---------------------------------------------- + +.. container:: + + The following security-relevant bugs have been resolved in NSS 3.19.2.1. Users are encouraged to + upgrade immediately. + + - `Bug 1192028 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1192028>`__ (CVE-2015-7181) and + `Bug 1202868 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1202868>`__ (CVE-2015-7182): + Several issues existed within the ASN.1 decoder used by NSS for handling streaming BER data. + While the majority of NSS uses a separate, unaffected DER decoder, several public routines + also accept BER data, and thus are affected. An attacker that successfully exploited these + issues can overflow the heap and may be able to obtain remote code execution. + + | The following security-relevant bugs have been resolved in NSPR 4.10.10, which affect NSS. + | Because NSS includes portions of the affected NSPR code at build time, it is necessary to use + NSPR 4.10.10 when building NSS. + + - `Bug 1205157 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1205157>`__ (NSPR, CVE-2015-7183): + A logic bug in the handling of large allocations would allow exceptionally large allocations + to be reported as successful, without actually allocating the requested memory. This may allow + attackers to bypass security checks and obtain control of arbitrary memory. + +.. _new_in_nss_3.19.2.1: + +`New in NSS 3.19.2.1 <#new_in_nss_3.19.2.1>`__ +---------------------------------------------- + +.. _new_functionality: + +`New Functionality <#new_functionality>`__ +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +.. container:: + + No new functionality is introduced in this release. This is a patch release to fix + security-relevant bugs. + +`Compatibility <#compatibility>`__ +---------------------------------- + +.. container:: + + NSS 3.19.2.1 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 3.19.2.1 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).
