Security Fix(es):

  * A use-after-free flaw was found in the TLS 1.2 implementation in the NSS
library when client authentication was used. A malicious client could use
this flaw to cause an application compiled against NSS to crash or,
potentially, execute arbitrary code with the permission of the user running
the application. (CVE-2017-7805)

Red Hat would like to thank the Mozilla project for reporting this issue.
