Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in nss, the Mozilla Network

identifies the following problems:

CVE-2015-7181

The sec_asn1d_parse_leaf function improperly restricts access to an
unspecified data structure, which allows remote attackers to cause a
denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary
code via crafted OCTET STRING data, related to a "use-after-poison"
issue.

CVE-2015-7182

 A Heap-based buffer overflow in the ASN.1 decoder allows remote
 attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or
 possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted OCTET STRING data.

For the oldoldstable distribution (squeeze), these problems have been fixed
in version 3.12.8-1+squeeze13.

We recommend that you upgrade your nss packages.
