Fedora 21: ca-certificates Security Update
Summary
This package contains the set of CA certificates chosen by the
Mozilla Foundation for use with the Internet PKI.
Update Information:
This is an update to the set of CA certificates released with NSS version 3.18.1
However, the package modifies the CA list to keep several legacy CAs still trusted for compatibility reasons. Please refer to the project URL for details.
If you prefer to use the unchanged list provided by Mozilla, and if you accept any compatibility issues it may cause, an administrator may configure the system by executing the "ca-legacy disable" command.
This update adds a manual page for the ca-legacy command.
This update changes the names of the possible values in the ca-legacy configuration file. It still uses the term legacy=disable to override the compatibility option and follow the upstream Mozilla.org decision. However it now uses the term legacy=default for the default configuration, to make it more obvious that the legacy certificates won't be kept enabled forever.
