Check you browser for the SSLv3 protocol leak
the remedie in linux mint:
For major browsers you can yourself disable the support for SSLv3, ahead of the next releases of those browser. I recommend that you do so. Doing so will effectively remove the vulnerability for your browser immediately.
- Firefox: Install Mozilla's SSL Version Control add-on. This will immediately drop support for SSLv3. Restart your browser afterwards to close any currently open SSL connections. With the release of Firefox 34 at end of November, you can remove this add-on again as Firefox 34 will not include SSLv3 support. (Alternatively, you can go to about:config and set the value of security.tls.version.min to 1. You don't need to install the add-on then.)
- Chromium: You need to edit the launcher for Chromium to include the option "--ssl-version-min=tls1", which would disable SSLv3 support. You can do so by running the following command from the terminal:
sudo sed -ri 's/^(Exec=[^ ]*)(.*)$/\1 --ssl-version-min=tls1\2/' /usr/share/applications/chromium-browser.desktop - Google Chrome: You need to edit the launcher for Google Chrome to include the option "--ssl-version-min=tls1", which would disable SSLv3 support. You can do so by running the following command from the terminal:
sudo sed -ri 's/^(Exec=[^ ]*)(.*)$/\1 --ssl-version-min=tls1\2/' /usr/share/applications/google-chrome.desktop
- Thunderbird: Click on the application button (icon on the right side of the menu bar) and click on Preferences in the menu that appears. Choose Advanced in the menu bar and on the General tab click on Config Editor. Search for security.tls.version.min and set its value to 1. Restart Thunderbird afterwards to close any currently open SSL connections.
