For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in version 3.12.8-1+squeeze6.

For the testing distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in version 2:3.13.6-2.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 2:3.14.1.with.ckbi.1.93-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your nss packages.");
