New functionality:
* ChaCha20/Poly1305 cipher and TLS cipher suites now supported
* Experimental-only support TLS 1.3 1-RTT mode (draft-11).
This code is not ready for production use.
New functions:
* SSL_SetDowngradeCheckVersion - Set maximum version for new
ServerRandom anti-downgrade mechanism. Clients that perform a
version downgrade (which is generally a very bad idea) call this
with the highest version number that they possibly support.
This gives them access to the version downgrade protection from
TLS 1.3.
Notable changes:
* The copy of SQLite shipped with NSS has been updated to version
3.10.2
* The list of TLS extensions sent in the TLS handshake has been
reordered to increase compatibility of the Extended Master Secret
with with servers
* The build time environment variable NSS_ENABLE_ZLIB has been
renamed to NSS_SSL_ENABLE_ZLIB
* The build time environment variable NSS_DISABLE_CHACHAPOLY was
added, which can be used to prevent compilation of the
ChaCha20/Poly1305 code.
* The following CA certificates were Removed
- Staat der Nederlanden Root CA
- NetLock Minositett Kozjegyzoi (Class QA) Tanusitvanykiado
- NetLock Kozjegyzoi (Class A) Tanusitvanykiado
- NetLock Uzleti (Class B) Tanusitvanykiado
- NetLock Expressz (Class C) Tanusitvanykiado
- VeriSign Class 1 Public PCA – G2

* required for Firefox 28
* export FREEBL_LOWHASH to get the correct default headers
(bnc#865539)
New functionality
* Added support for the TLS application layer protocol negotiation
(ALPN) extension. Two SSL socket options, SSL_ENABLE_NPN and
SSL_ENABLE_ALPN, can be used to control whether NPN or ALPN (or both)
should be used for application layer protocol negotiation.
* Added the TLS padding extension. The extension type value is 35655,
which may change when an official extension type value is assigned
by IANA. NSS automatically adds the padding extension to ClientHello
when necessary.
* Added a new macro CERT_LIST_TAIL, defined in certt.h, for getting
the tail of a CERTCertList.
Notable Changes
* bmo#950129: Improve the OCSP fetching policy when verifying OCSP
responses
* bmo#949060: Validate the iov input argument (an array of PRIOVec
structures) of ssl_WriteV (called via PR_Writev). Applications should
still take care when converting struct iov to PRIOVec because the
iov_len members of the two structures have different types
(size_t vs. int). size_t is unsigned and may be larger than int.

* Packaging
+ removed obsolete patches
* nss-disable-expired-testcerts.patch
* bug-834091.patch
* New Functionality
+ Support for OCSP Stapling (RFC 6066, Certificate Status
Request) has been added for both client and server sockets.
TLS client applications may enable this via a call to
SSL_OptionSetDefault(SSL_ENABLE_OCSP_STAPLING, PR_TRUE);
+ Added function SECITEM_ReallocItemV2. It replaces function
SECITEM_ReallocItem, which is now declared as obsolete.
+ Support for single-operation (eg: not multi-part) symmetric
key encryption and decryption, via PK11_Encrypt and PK11_Decrypt.
+ certutil has been updated to support creating name constraints
extensions.
* New Functions
in ssl.h
SSL_PeerStapledOCSPResponse - Returns the server's stapled
OCSP response, when used with a TLS client socket that
negotiated the status_request extension.
SSL_SetStapledOCSPResponses - Set's a stapled OCSP response
for a TLS server socket to return when clients send the
status_request extension.
in ocsp.h
CERT_PostOCSPRequest - Primarily intended for testing, permits
the sending and receiving of raw OCSP request/responses.
in secpkcs7.h
SEC_PKCS7VerifyDetachedSignatureAtTime - Verifies a PKCS#7
signature at a specific time other than the present time.

* Support for TLS 1.1 (RFC 4346)
* Experimental support for DTLS 1.0 (RFC 4347) and DTLS-SRTP (RFC 5764)
* Support for AES-CTR, AES-CTS, and AES-GCM
* Support for Keying Material Exporters for TLS (RFC 5705)
* Support for certificate signatures using the MD5 hash algorithm
is now disabled by default
* The NSS license has changed to MPL 2.0. Previous releases were
released under a MPL 1.1/GPL 2.0/LGPL 2.1 tri-license. For more
information about MPL 2.0, please see
http://www.mozilla.org/MPL/2.0/FAQ.html. For an additional
explanation on GPL/LGPL compatibility, see security/nss/COPYING
in the source code.
* Export and DES cipher suites are disabled by default. Non-ECC
AES and Triple DES cipher suites are enabled by default
- disabled OCSP testcases since they need external network
(nss-disable-ocsp-test.patch)
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/mozilla:Factory/mozilla-nss?expand=0&rev=105
* better SHA-224 support (bmo#647706)
* fixed a regression (causing hangs in some situations)
introduced in 3.13 (bmo#693228)
- update to 3.13.0 RTM
* SSL 2.0 is disabled by default
* A defense against the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 CBC chosen plaintext
attack demonstrated by Rizzo and Duong (CVE-2011-3389) is
enabled by default. Set the SSL_CBC_RANDOM_IV SSL option to
PR_FALSE to disable it.
* SHA-224 is supported
* Ported to iOS. (Requires NSPR 4.9.)
* Added PORT_ErrorToString and PORT_ErrorToName to return the
error message and symbolic name of an NSS error code
* Added NSS_GetVersion to return the NSS version string
* Added experimental support of RSA-PSS to the softoken only
* NSS_NoDB_Init does not try to open /pkcs11.txt and /secmod.db
anymore (bmo#641052, bnc#726096)
