Synopsis:	Low: nss security update
Issue date:	2010-11-10
CVE Names:	CVE-2010-3170

A flaw was found in the way NSS matched SSL certificates when the
certificates had a Common Name containing a wildcard and a partial IP
address. NSS incorrectly accepted connections to IP addresses that fell
within the SSL certificate's wildcard range as valid SSL connections,
possibly allowing an attacker to conduct a man-in-the-middle attack.
(CVE-2010-3170)

After installing the update, applications using NSS must be restarted 
for the changes to take effect.
