    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian Security Advisory DSA-5016-1 security@debian.org https://www.debian.org/security/ Salvatore Bonaccorso December 01, 2021 https://www.debian.org/security/faq

    Package : nss
    CVE ID : CVE-2021-43527

    Tavis Ormandy discovered that nss, the Mozilla Network Security Service library, is prone to a heap overflow flaw when verifying DSA or RSA-PPS signatures, which could result in denial of service or potentially the execution of arbitrary code.

    For the oldstable distribution (buster), this problem has been fixed
    in version 2:3.42.1-1+deb10u4.

    For the stable distribution (bullseye), this problem has been fixed in
    version 2:3.61-1+deb11u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your nss packages.

    For the detailed security status of nss please refer to its security
    tracker page at:
    https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/nss
