New functionality
* The tstclnt and selfserv utilities added support for configuring
the enabled TLS signature schemes using the -J parameter.
* NSS will use RSA-PSS keys to authenticate in TLS. Support for
these keys is disabled by default but can be enabled using
SSL_SignatureSchemePrefSet().
* certutil added the ability to delete an orphan private key from
an NSS key database.
* Added the nss-policy-check utility, which can be used to check
an NSS policy configuration for problems.
* A PKCS#11 URI can be used as an identifier for a PKCS#11 token.
Notable changes
* The TLS 1.3 implementation uses the final version number from
RFC 8446.
* Previous versions of NSS accepted an RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 signature
where the DigestInfo structure was missing the NULL parameter.
Starting with version 3.39, NSS requires the encoding to contain
the NULL parameter.
* The tstclnt and selfserv test utilities no longer accept the -z
parameter, as support for TLS compression was removed in a
previous NSS version.
* The CA certificates list was updated to version 2.26.
* The following CA certificates were Added:

* Added support for the TLS Record Size Limit Extension
* When creating a certificate request (CSR) using certutil -R, an
existing orphan private key can be reused. Parameter -k may be
used to specify the ID of an existing orphan key. The available
orphan key IDs can be displayed using command certutil -K.
* When using certutil -O to print the chain for a given certificate
nickname, the new parameter --simple-self-signed may be provided,
which can avoid ambiguous output in some scenarios.

benefit from caching.

the existing nickname will be kept.

* The code to support the NPN protocol has been fully removed.
* NSS allows servers now to register ALPN handling callbacks to
select a protocol.
* NSS supports opening SQL databases in read-only mode.
* On Linux, some build configurations can use glibc's function
getentropy(), which uses the kernel's getrandom() function.
* The CA list was updated to version 2.24, which removed the
following CA certificates:
- CN = S-TRUST Universal Root CA
- CN = TC TrustCenter Class 3 CA II
- CN = TÜRKTRUST Elektronik Sertifika Hizmet Sağlayıcısı H5

- use relro linker option (add-relro-linker-option.patch)
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/mozilla:Factory/mozilla-nss?expand=0&rev=262
Notable changes
* In NSS version 3.35 the iteration count in optimized builds,
which is used for password based encryption algorithm related to
encrypted PKCS#7 or PKCS#12 data, was increased to one million
iterations. That change had caused an interoperability regression
with operating systems that are limited to 600 K iterations.
NSS 3.36.1 has been changed to use the same 600 K limit.
Bugs fixed
* Certain smartcard operations could result in a deadlock.
* Replaces existing vectorized ChaCha20 code with verified
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/mozilla:Factory/mozilla-nss?expand=0&rev=260
New functionality
* TLS 1.3 support has been updated to draft -23. This includes a
large number of changes since 3.34, which supported only draft
-18. See below for details.
New Types
* SSLHandshakeType - The type of a TLS handshake message.
* For the SSLSignatureScheme enum, the enumerated values
ssl_sig_rsa_pss_sha* are deprecated in response to a change in
TLS 1.3. Please use the equivalent ssl_sig_rsa_pss_rsae_sha*
for rsaEncryption keys, or ssl_sig_rsa_pss_pss_sha* for PSS keys.
Note that this release does not include support for the latter.
Notable Changes
* Previously, NSS used the DBM file format by default. Starting
with version 3.35, NSS uses the SQL file format by default.
Additional information can be found on this Fedora Linux project
page: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/NSSDefaultFileFormatSql
* Added formally verified implementations of non-vectorized Chacha20
and non-vectorized Poly1305 64-bit.
* For stronger security, when creating encrypted PKCS#7 or PKCS#12 data,
the iteration count for the password based encryption algorithm
has been increased to one million iterations. Note that debug builds
will use a lower count, for better performance in test environments.
* NSS 3.30 had introduced a regression, preventing NSS from reading
some AES encrypted data, produced by older versions of NSS.
NSS 3.35 fixes this regression and restores the ability to read
affected data.
* The following CA certificates were Removed:
OU = Security Communication EV RootCA1
CN = CA Disig Root R1
