Description:
This update for apache2-mod_nss fixes the following issues:
Due to the update of mozilla-nss apache2-mod_nss needs to be updated to
change to the SQLite certificate database, which is now the default
(bsc#1108771). Because of that this update is tagged as security, to reach
customers that only install secuirty updates.
Other changes contained:
- Require minimal NSS version of 3.25 because of SSLv2 changes (bsc#993642)
- Add support for SHA384 TLS ciphers (bsc#863035)
- Remove deprecated NSSSessionCacheTimeout option from mod_nss.conf.in
(bsc#998176)
- Change ownership of the gencert generated NSS database so apache can
read it (bsc#998180)
- Use correct configuration path in mod_nss.conf.in (bsc#996282)
- Generate dummy certificates if there aren't any in mod_nss.d (bsc#998183)
