Security Advisories

The following security-relevant bugs have been resolved in NSS 3.15.4.
Users are encouraged to upgrade immediately.

Bug 919877 - (CVE-2013-1740) When false start is enabled, libssl will
sometimes return unencrypted, unauthenticated data from PR_Recv


New in NSS 3.15.4
New Functionality
    Implemented OCSP querying using the HTTP GET method, which is the new default, and will fall back to the HTTP POST method.
    Implemented OCSP server functionality for testing purposes (httpserv utility).
    Support SHA-1 signatures with TLS 1.2 client authentication.
    Added the --empty-password command-line option to certutil, to be used with -N: use an empty password when creating a new database.
    Added the -w command-line option to pp: don't wrap long output lines.

New Functions
    CERT_ForcePostMethodForOCSP
    CERT_GetSubjectNameDigest
    CERT_GetSubjectPublicKeyDigest
    SSL_PeerCertificateChain
    SSL_RecommendedCanFalseStart
    SSL_SetCanFalseStartCallback

New Types
    CERT_REV_M_FORCE_POST_METHOD_FOR_OCSP: When this flag is used, libpkix will never attempt to use the HTTP GET method for OCSP requests; it will always use POST.

New PKCS #11 Mechanisms
None.

Notable Changes in NSS 3.15.4

    Reordered the cipher suites offered in SSL/TLS client hello messages to match modern best practices.
    Updated the set of root CA certificates (version 1.96).
    Improved SSL/TLS false start. In addition to enabling the SSL_ENABLE_FALSE_START option, an application must now register a callback using the SSL_SetCanFalseStartCallback function.
    When building on Windows, OS_TARGET now defaults to WIN95. To use the WINNT build configuration, specify OS_TARGET=WINNT.

Compatibility
NSS 3.15.4 shared libraries are backward compatible with all older NSS 3.x
shared libraries. A program linked with older NSS 3.x shared libraries will
work with NSS 3.15.4 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.
