Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'mozilla-nss' package(s) announced via the SSA:2014-086-04 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: New mozilla-nss packages are available for Slackware 14.0, 14.1, and -current to fix a security issue. Here are the details from the Slackware 14.1 ChangeLog: +--------------------------+ patches/packages/mozilla-nss-3.16-i486-1_slack14.1.txz: Upgraded. This update fixes a security issue: The cert_TestHostName function in lib/certdb/certdb.c in the certificate-checking implementation in Mozilla Network Security Services (NSS) before 3.16 accepts a wildcard character that is embedded in an internationalized domain name's U-label, which might allow man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof SSL servers via a crafted certificate. For more information, see: [link moved to references] (* Security fix *) +--------------------------+ Affected Software/OS: 'mozilla-nss' package(s) on Slackware 14.0, Slackware 14.1, Slackware current. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 4.3 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N
