Bug #698753 reports that a certificate sub-authority improperly issued
subscriber certificates with 512-bit RSA keys.  At least one such
certificate has been used to sign malware.

NSS has been patched to resolve this issue.  Will there be an update to
SeaMonkey 2.4.x that incorporates this patch?  Or will we have to wait
for SeaMonkey 2.5?  I believe Mozilla has already released Firefox 8 and
Firefox 3.6.24 to incorporate this patch.

Anyone who thinks government owns a monopoly on inefficient, obstructive
bureaucracy has obviously never worked for a large corporation.
