| Beschreibung: | Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'Firefox'
package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.
Vulnerability Insight:
This patch contains security updates for
* mozilla-nss 3.16.4
- The following 1024-bit root CA certificate was restored to allow more
time to develop a better transition strategy for affected sites. It
was removed in NSS 3.16.3, but discussion in the
mozilla.dev.security.policy forum led to the decision to keep this
root included longer in order to give website administrators more time
to update their web servers.
- CN = GTE CyberTrust Global Root
* In NSS 3.16.3, the 1024-bit 'Entrust.net Secure Server Certification
Authority' root CA certificate was removed. In NSS 3.16.4, a 2048-bit
intermediate CA certificate has been included, without explicit trust.
The intention is to mitigate the effects of the previous removal of
the 1024-bit Entrust.net root certificate, because many public
Internet sites still use the 'USERTrust Legacy Secure Server CA'
intermediate certificate that is signed by the 1024-bit Entrust.net
root certificate. The inclusion of the intermediate certificate is a
temporary measure to allow those sites to function, by allowing them
to find a trust path to another 2048-bit root CA certificate. The
temporarily included intermediate certificate expires November 1, 2015.
* Firefox 31.1esr Firefox is updated from 24esr to 31esr as maintenance
for version 24 stopped
Affected Software/OS:
Firefox on openSUSE 11.4
Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).
