  A flaw was found in the way the ASN.1 (Abstract Syntax Notation One)
  decoder in NSS handled zero length items. This flaw could cause the decoder
  to incorrectly skip or replace certain items with a default value, or could
  cause an application to crash if, for example, it received a
  specially-crafted OCSP (Online Certificate Status Protocol) response.

  The nspr package has been upgraded to upstream version 4.9.1, which
  provides a number of bug fixes and enhancements over the previous version.

  The nss-util package has been upgraded to upstream version 3.13.5, which
