(Keywords: intl)

utf8.c is still based on the previous definition of UTF-8 and allows 5 and 6 byte-long sequences as well as code points between U+d800-U+dfff (reserved for surrogate pairs in UTF-16). It should be updated to RFC 3629 http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc3629.html I'm not checking 'security' flag, but if it's necessary, please feel free to mark it as such.
Thank you for the bug report. Both of these have been addressed in the upcoming NSS 3.10 release. (Mozilla is using NSS 3.9.2 now.) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 231659 ***
