The Padding Oracle On Downgraded Legacy Encryption – or POODLE – flaw was first publicly confirmed Oct. 14. The flaw was discovered by Google security researchers Bodo M.ller, Thai Duong and Krzysztof Kotowicz. It exists in version 3 of Secure Sockets Layer, or SSL, which’s designed to secure Internet communications. Most browsers still remain compatible with SSL and are vulnerable to attacks that target the flaw. The fix for the flaw is to disable SSL 3.0 support on all browsers and servers.”]
