A Null pointer dereference vulnerability exists in Mozilla Network Security Services due to a missing NULL check in PK11_SignWithSymKey / ssl3_ComputeRecordMACConstantTime, which could let a remote malicious user cause a Denial of Service.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.28%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
