I don't have much information on it but I figured I'd warn people incase they didn't get the message, as I couldn't find it posted on here, and I figured people might like to know about it.

If you use SSL you might want to check if you're vulnerable to the bug "POODLE" which affects those that have SSLv3 enabled (https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/index.html)

Information on POODLE: https://community.centminmod.com/threads/poodle-attacks-on-sslv3-vulnerability.1651/(And you can Google it)

POODLE (Padding Oracle On Downgraded Legacy Encryption) CVE-2014-3566 recommended of implementing TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV in OpenSSL or disabling SSL 3.0 support, or CBC-mode ciphers with SSL 3.0.

Just update to OpenSSL 1.0.1j :smile:
