It was found that certain cryptographic primitives in nss, the Network Security Service libraries, did not check the length of the input text. This could result in a potential heap-based buffer overflow.

For Debian 8 ‘Jessie’, this problem has been fixed in version 2:3.26-1+debu8u10.

We recommend that you upgrade your nss packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
