Insecure encryption algorithm In nss

Description

The RC4 algorithm, as used in the TLS protocol and SSL protocol, has many single-byte biases, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct plaintext-recovery attacks via statistical analysis of ciphertext in a large number of sessions that use the same plaintext.

Mitigation

Update Impact

Minimal update. May introduce new vulnerabilities or breaking changes.
