Network Security Services

Edit Package mozilla-nss

Network Security Services (NSS) is a set of libraries designed to
support cross-platform development of security-enabled server
applications. Applications built with NSS can support SSL v2 and v3,
TLS, PKCS #5, PKCS #7, PKCS #11, PKCS #12, S/MIME, X.509 v3
certificates, and other security standards.

- also sign libfreeblpriv3.so to allow FIPS mode again (boo#992236)

- update to NSS 3.24
  New functionality:
  * NSS softoken has been updated with the latest National Institute
    of Standards and Technology (NIST) guidance (as of 2015):
    - Software integrity checks and POST functions are executed on
      shared library load. These checks have been disabled by default,
      as they can cause a performance regression. To enable these
      checks, you must define symbol NSS_FORCE_FIPS when building NSS.
    - Counter mode and Galois/Counter Mode (GCM) have checks to
      prevent counter overflow.
    - Additional CSPs are zeroed in the code.
    - NSS softoken uses new guidance for how many Rabin-Miller tests
      are needed to verify a prime based on prime size.
  * NSS softoken has also been updated to allow NSS to run in FIPS
    Level 1 (no password). This mode is triggered by setting the
    database password to the empty string. In FIPS mode, you may move
    from Level 1 to Level 2 (by setting an appropriate password),
    but not the reverse.
  * A SSL_ConfigServerCert function has been added for configuring
    SSL/TLS server sockets with a certificate and private key. Use
    this new function in place of SSL_ConfigSecureServer,
    SSL_ConfigSecureServerWithCertChain, SSL_SetStapledOCSPResponses,
    and SSL_SetSignedCertTimestamps. SSL_ConfigServerCert automatically
    determines the certificate type from the certificate and private key.
    The caller is no longer required to use SSLKEAType explicitly to
    select a "slot" into which the certificate is configured (which
    incorrectly identifies a key agreement type rather than a certificate).
    Separate functions for configuring Online Certificate Status Protocol
