(ITS#6791) Patch - Mozilla NSS - cert verify uses incorrect values



Full_Name: Rich Megginson
Version: 2.4.23 (current CVS HEAD)
OS: RHEL6
URL: ftp://ftp.openldap.org/incoming/openldap-2.4.23-cert-verify-uses-incorrect-values-20110114.patch
Submission from: (NULL) (76.113.111.209)


The cert verify routines were using type SECCertUsage instead of type
SECCertificateUsage.  The values are similar, and this was causing verify errors
of SEC_ERROR_INADEQUATE_KEY_USAGE and SEC_ERROR_INADEQUATE_CERT_TYPE.  MozNSS
only checks the usage if the cert includes the usage extensions which is why I
didn't see this error earlier.
