An attacker could craft ASN.1 data to forge RSA certificates with a valid certification chain to a trusted CA. For the stable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in version 24.8.1esr-1~deb7u1. For the testing distribution (jessie) and unstable distribution (sid), Icedove uses the system NSS library, handled in DSA 3033-1. We recommend that you upgrade your icedove packages.
