  independence for non-GUI operating system facilities.

  It was found that a Certificate Authority (CA) mis-issued two intermediate
  certificates to customers. These certificates could be used to launch
  man-in-the-middle attacks. This update renders those certificates as
  untrusted. This covers all uses of the certificates, including SSL, S/MIME,
  and code signing. (BZ#890605)

  Note: This fix only applies to applications using the NSS Builtin Object
  Token. It does not render the certificates untrusted for applications that
  use the NSS library, but do not use the NSS Builtin Object Token.

  In addition, the nss package has been upgraded to upstream version 3.13.6,
  the nss-util package has been upgraded to upstream version 3.13.6, and the
  nspr package has been upgraded to upstream version 4.9.2. These updates
  provide a number of bug fixes and enhancements over the previous versions.
  (BZ#891663, BZ#891670, BZ#891661)

  Users of NSS, NSPR, and nss-util are advised to upgrade to these updated
  packages, which fix these issues and add these enhancements. After
  installing this update, applications using NSS, NSPR, or nss-util must be
  restarted for this update to take effect.");
