Thank you to Sohaib ul Hassan, Billy Bob Brumley, and the Network and Information Security Group (NISEC) at Tampere University for reporting this issue and providing a patch.
The HG tag is NSS_3_53_1_RTM. NSS 3.53.1 requires NSPR 4.25 or newer.

Other releases are available in NSS Releases.
No new functionality is introduced in this release.
NSS 3.53.1 shared libraries are backward compatible with all older NSS 3.x shared libraries. A program linked with older NSS 3.x shared libraries will work with NSS 3.53.1 shared libraries without recompiling or relinking. Furthermore, applications that restrict their use of NSS APIs to the functions listed in NSS Public Functions will remain compatible with future versions of the NSS shared libraries.
Bugs discovered should be reported by filing a bug report with bugzilla.mozilla.org (product NSS).
