POODLE - the ebola of the internet

[bad_brain]

oh well, most of you surely have read about the POODLE attack against SSL 3:
https://www.openssl.org/~bodo/ssl-poodle.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

as it became a fashion with any kind of exploits now, this is, again, the end of the internet. really.

why like ebola? because almost nobody is affected but people act like it's the zombie apocalypse.

how to fix it?
simply add this one in your Apache ssl.conf:

Code: Select all

SSLProtocol all -SSLv2 -SSLv3

the -SSLv3 that is, the -SSLv2 should already be there as it's known to be flawed.

I'm pro ebola... the flock could use a little culling

I feel the same. I also support the proliferation of malware through poorly configured systems from terrible system administrators.

Darwin was always right, even if political correctness tries to establish that silly "all people are equal" commie crap again. all people are NOT equal. Neanderthals went extinct exactly for that reason for example...nature did a little experiment, it failed, next.

and yes, imo the main reason of all the problems on this planet is that human kind is held back by the Neanderthals of today, instead of letting them extinct we keep them alive like a human vegetable in an ICU. I mean, really, if western civilization would have spent the money for science instead for absolutely pointless "humanitarian help" projects we would have a nice moon base already (instead of 100.000 extra AK47 rifles).
