nss: code execution

Package(s):nss CVE #(s):CVE-2016-1950
Created:March 9, 2016 Updated:April 6, 2016
Description: From the Red Hat advisory:

A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way NSS parsed certain ASN.1 structures. An attacker could use this flaw to create a specially crafted certificate which, when parsed by NSS, could cause it to crash, or execute arbitrary code, using the permissions of the user running an application compiled against the NSS library.
