      <pre wrap="">Hello folks,

  in relation to the recent SSLv3 CVE-2014-3566 / "POODLE" flaw:
  [1] <a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://fedoramagazine.org/what-you-need-to-know-about-the-sslv3-poodle-flaw-cve-2014-3566/">http://fedoramagazine.org/what-you-need-to-know-about-the-sslv3-poodle-flaw-cve-2014-3566/</a>

got wondering if there's anything SSG should do to react against it.
Possibly to add / update system service rules checking for system SSL
version that it is higher than SSLv3? [1] suggest httpd would be
one candidate, but I am sure there would be more of them. Should this be
investigated further &amp; particular rules updated?

Thanks &amp;&amp; Regards, Jan.

P.S.: For those possibly wondering the proposal is not to add rule checking
      particular package version is &gt;= than the updated version disabling
      use of SSLv3 (IOW not to perform the CVE check itself). But rather
      check configuration of possibly affected system services, if they
      aren't using SSLv3 via their configuration files (since setting
      default SSL version higher than SSLv3 is one thing, but actually
      checking if that version isn't enabled again [by administrator] an another one).</pre>

    Already reflect using TLS for SMTP:<br>

    And then specifically calls out using FIPS 140-2 certified ciphers,
    which means the system forces protocols of TLSv1.1 and TLSv1.0 and
    disables all other ciphers but the FIPS ones:<br>
