4.199.1. RHBA-2011:1838 — nss bug fix update
Updated nss packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
Network Security Services (NSS) is a set of libraries designed to support the cross-platform development of security-enabled client and server applications.
Bug Fix
- BZ#766056
- Recent changes to NSS re-introduced a problem where applications could not use multiple SSL client certificates in the same process. Therefore, any attempt to run commands that worked with multiple SSL client certificates, such as the "yum repolist" command, resulted in a re-negotiation handshake failure. With this update, a revised patch correcting this problem has been applied to NSS, and using multiple SSL client certificates in the same process is now possible again.
All users of nss are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.
