DSA-2300-2 nss -- comprimised certificate authorityID: oval:org.secpod.oval:def:600614 | Date: (C)2011-10-13 (M)2022-10-10 |
Class: PATCH | Family: unix |
Several unauthorised SSL certificates have been found in the wild issued for the DigiNotar Certificate Authority, obtained through a security compromise with said company. Debian, like other software distributors, has as a precaution decided to disable the DigiNotar Root CA by default in the NSS crypto libraries. As a result from further understanding of the incident, this update to DSA 2300 disables additional DigiNotar issuing certificates.
