This fixes a regression introduced in NSS 3.16.2 + that prevented NSS from importing some RSA private keys (such as in PKCS #12 files) generated + by other crypto libraries. + - `Bug 1057161 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1057161>`__: Check that an imported + elliptic curve public key is valid.

A + program linked with older NSS 3.x shared libraries will work with NSS 3.17.2 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).
