The Mozilla Project reports :

Security researcher Karthikeyan Bhargavan reported an issue in Network Security Services (NSS) where MD5 signatures in the server signature within the TLS 1.2 ServerKeyExchange message are still accepted. This is an issue since NSS has officially disallowed the accepting MD5 as a hash algorithm in signatures since 2011. This issues exposes NSS based clients such as Firefox to theoretical collision-based forgery attacks.
