The version of nspr installed on the remote host is prior to 4.32.0-1. The version of nss installed on the remote host is prior to 3.67.0-4. The version of nss-softokn installed on the remote host is prior to 3.67.0-3. The version of nss- util installed on the remote host is prior to 3.67.0-1. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2-2021-1722 advisory.

  - NSS (Network Security Services) versions prior to 3.73 or 3.68.1 ESR are vulnerable to a heap overflow     when handling DER-encoded DSA or RSA-PSS signatures. Applications using NSS for handling signatures     encoded within CMS, S/MIME, PKCS \#7, or PKCS \#12 are likely to be impacted. Applications using NSS for     certificate validation or other TLS, X.509, OCSP or CRL functionality may be impacted, depending on how     they configure NSS. *Note: This vulnerability does NOT impact Mozilla Firefox.* However, email clients and     PDF viewers that use NSS for signature verification, such as Thunderbird, LibreOffice, Evolution and     Evince are believed to be impacted. This vulnerability affects NSS < 3.73 and NSS < 3.68.1.
