Summary

Important: nss security and bug fix update

Details

Network Security Services (NSS) is a set of libraries designed to support the cross-platform development of security-enabled client and server applications.

Security Fix(es):

nss: Arbitrary memory write via PKCS 12 (CVE-2023-0767)

Bug Fix(es):

In FIPS mode, nss should reject RSASSA-PSS salt lengths larger than the output size of the hash function used, or provide an indicator. (BZ#2177434)
Need to update FIPS review comments into NSS AlmaLinux-9. (BZ#2177875)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.
