The NSS team has released Network Security Services (NSS) 3.43 on 16 March 2019,
which is a minor release.

The HG tag is NSS_3_43_RTM. NSS 3.43 requires NSPR 4.21 or newer.

NSS 3.43 source distributions are available on ftp.mozilla.org for secure
HTTPS download:

New Functionality:
 * in sechash.h
    HASH_GetHashOidTagByHashType - convert type HASH_HashType to type SECOidTag

 * in sslexp.h
    SSL_SendCertificateRequest - allow server to request post-handshake client
    authentication. To use this both peers need to enable the
    SSL_ENABLE_POST_HANDSHAKE_AUTH option. Note that while the mechanism is
    present, post-handshake authentication is currently not TLS 1.3 compliant
    due to Bug 1532312
