NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream nss-tools package and not the nss-tools package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

Mozilla Network Security Services (NSS) before 3.20.2, as used in Mozilla Firefox before 43.0.2 and Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.5.2, does not reject MD5 signatures in Server Key Exchange messages in TLS 1.2 Handshake Protocol traffic, which makes it easier for man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof servers by triggering a collision.
