Remediation:

NSS 3.73 [1] and NSS ESR 3.68.1 [2] have been released and contain the
fix. A patch suitable for backporting is also attached (patch.diff).

Acknowledgements:

This vulnerability was reported to the NSS team by Tavis Ormandy of
Project Zero.

https://bugs.chromium.org/p/project-zero/issues/detail?id=2237 states that
"It's been 30 days since the initial thunderbird patches have been released".

Is there a corresponding Thunderbird patch/advisory/release distros should be
shipping as well?
