RHBA-2011:0621 - jss bug fix update
Synopsis
jss bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Topic
Updated jss packages that fix two bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise 6.
Description
JSS is a Java binding to Network Security Services (NSS), which provides SSL/TLS network protocols and other security services in the Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) suite. JSS is primarily utilized by the Certificate Server.
This update fixes the following bugs:
-
With this update, JSS has been upgraded to upstream version 4.2.6, which provides a number of bug fixes over the previous version. This rebase is necessary to support the Certificate Server. (BZ#656094)
-
Previously, JSS did not release a PK11 slot. Due to this problem, a resource leak occurred and prevented NSS from shutting down because NSS detected that resources were still in use. This update corrects the resource leak and allows NSS to shutdown. (BZ#676179)
All users of JSS are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these bugs.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.
