Yes, it *sounds like* Ubuntu is shipping an NSS with known security
problems or something like that. Which sounds scary, but perhaps I
mis-interpret the situation. :-)

There is now also feedback from Armin and Gabor, I would suggest to
continue the discussion at
<https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/141865> to keep everything at a
single place.

And sorry for the problem, I was not aware that Ubuntu is shipping an
old NSS which is so old that even RHEL7 counts as "new".

Thanks,

Miklos
