Comment 2 Huzaifa S. Sidhpurwala 2015-08-14 07:02:29 UTC
The vulnerable code was added to mod_nss via the following commit:

https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/mod_nss.git/commit/?id=2d1650900f4d47dc43400d826c0f7e1a7c5229b8

And it was released as mod_nss-1.10.11

Therefore this does not affect the version of mod_nss package shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, 6 and 7.

Comment 3 Huzaifa S. Sidhpurwala 2015-08-14 07:05:20 UTC
Statement:
