Network Security Services (NSS) is a set of libraries designed to supportcross-platform development of security-enabled client and server applications. Applicationsbuilt with NSS can supportSSLv2 and v3, TLS,PKCS#5, PKCS #7,PKCS#11, PKCS #12, S/MIME,X.509v3 certificates, and other security standards. For detailed informationon standards supported, see Overview of NSS.

NSS is available under the Mozilla Public License, the GNU General PublicLicense, and the GNU Lesser General Public License. For information ondownloading NSS releases as tar files, see Download PKI Source.

27 Febrary 2003: Security Vulnerability: Vaudenay Timing Attack on CBC mode blockciphers

Recently a timing-based attack on SSL/TLS implementations of CBC mode blockcipher suites was disclosed. At present the implementation of SSL and TLS in NSS issusceptible to this method. The flaw is exploited on the recipient ofsensitive data, which is normally servers. Servers are vulnerable tothe attack only if they implement all of the following:

  • TLS (supported by NSS 2.8 and later);
  • cipher suites that use block ciphers;
  • application protocols that are likely to receive sensitive data (forexample, passwords) at exactly the same offset in many messages froma client.

We have implemented a countermeasure and will release NSS patch releasessoon. Until updated NSS libraries are available, we recommend the followingaction:

  • Netscape/mozilla browser users do not need to take any action. Theycould choose to disable TLS or disable CBC mode block ciphersuitesas a precaution against vulnerable servers.
  • Administrators of servers that are based on NSS 2.8 or later and thatenable TLS need to take action. They could disable TLS or disable CBCmode block cipher suites.

For more information, please see our article on this security flaw.

S/MIME Toolkit Module

See S/MIME Toolkit for information about NSS librariesdesigned to support cross-platform development of S/MIME applications.Originally created to support S/MIME in Communicator 4.x and Personal SecurityManager (PSM), these libraries form the basis of a new S/MIME Toolkit forcross-platform development of S/MIME applications.

SSL/TLS Module

See SSL/TLS for information about NSS libraries designedto support cross-platform development of SSL- and TLS-enabled applications.These libraries form the basis of the SSL module.
