Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2015:059
http://www.mandriva.com/en/support/security/
_______________________________________________________________________

Package : nss
Date : March 13, 2015
Affected: Business Server 2.0
_______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in the Mozilla
NSS and NSPR packages:

The cert_TestHostName function in lib/certdb/certdb.c in the
certificate-checking implementation in Mozilla Network Security
Services (NSS) before 3.16 accepts a wildcard character that is
embedded in an internationalized domain name's U-label, which might
allow man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof SSL servers via a crafted
certificate (CVE-2014-1492).

Use-after-free vulnerability in the CERT_DestroyCertificate function
in libnss3.so in Mozilla Network Security Services (NSS) 3.x, as used
in Firefox before 31.0, Firefox ESR 24.x before 24.7, and Thunderbird
before 24.7, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via
vectors that trigger certain improper removal of an NSSCertificate
structure from a trust domain (CVE-2014-1544).

Mozilla Network Security Services (NSS) before 3.16.2.1, 3.16.x
before 3.16.5, and 3.17.x before 3.17.1, as used in Mozilla Firefox
before 32.0.3, Mozilla Firefox ESR 24.x before 24.8.1 and 31.x before
31.1.1, Mozilla Thunderbird before 24.8.1 and 31.x before 31.1.2,
Mozilla SeaMonkey before 2.29.1, Google Chrome before 37.0.2062.124
on Windows and OS X, and Google Chrome OS before 37.0.2062.120, does
not properly parse ASN.1 values in X.509 certificates, which makes
it easier for remote attackers to spoof RSA signatures via a crafted
certificate, aka a signature malleability issue (CVE-2014-1568).

The definite_length_decoder function in lib/util/quickder.c in
Mozilla Network Security Services (NSS) before 3.16.2.4 and 3.17.x
before 3.17.3 does not ensure that the DER encoding of an ASN.1
length is properly formed, which allows remote attackers to conduct
data-smuggling attacks by using a long byte sequence for an encoding,
as demonstrated by the SEC_QuickDERDecodeItem function's improper
handling of an arbitrary-length encoding of 0x00 (CVE-2014-1569).

Mozilla Netscape Portable Runtime (NSPR) before 4.10.6 allows remote
attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service
(out-of-bounds write) via vectors involving the sprintf and console
functions (CVE-2014-1545).

The sqlite3 packages have been upgraded to the 3.8.6 version due to
an prerequisite to nss-3.17.x.

Additionally the rootcerts package has also been updated to the
latest version as of 2014-11-17, which adds, removes, and distrusts
several certificates.

The updated packages provides a solution for these security issues.
