304314 - firefox 1.0.6 locks up while importing PKCS12 with no friendly name

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 304301

(Firefox :: Settings UI, defect)

Description

[Robert Dugal]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050809 Firefox/1.0.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050809 Firefox/1.0.6

I am testing a PKCS #10 provider that I am developing and I try to import some
PKCS12 files into the token of my provider. The PKCS12 files do not contain a
friendly name. When I import the first file, Firefox generates a nickname of 
"Imported Certificate". When I try to import a second file Firefox enters an
endless loop and locks up. 

The problem is that Firefox generates a nickname by looking in the internal
token to see if the nickname is unique, then when importing into my token it
realizes the nickname is not unique, retries generating a nickname but it is the
same as last time, etc. 

The problem is occurring in sec_pkcs12_validate_cert_nickn­ame() 



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Reproducing this problem requires the installation of another PKCS11 provider
which supports token storage.

1. open the options dialog from "tools/options" menu
2. in the advanced options click on "Manage Certificates" button
3. in the "Your Certificates" tab click on the "import" button
4. when prompted for which token to import the file into, select the other
provider. ie) not into NSS's internal token
5. import a pkcs12 file that does not contain a friendly name, enter password,
etc. this should be successfull first time.
6. try again with another pkcs12 file that also doesn't contain a friendly name.



Actual Results:  
Firefox will lock up.

Expected Results:  
should successfully import the pkcs12 files

pkcs12 files which can be used to reproduce the problem can be downloaded from here:
