cross-platform development of security-enabled client and server

independence for non-GUI operating system facilities.

A use-after-poison flaw and a heap-based buffer overflow flaw were found in
the way NSS parsed certain ASN.1 structures. An attacker could use these
flaws to cause NSS to crash or execute arbitrary code with the permissions
of the user running an application compiled against the NSS library.
