So I’m doing a Google search this morning for information on the Poodle SSLv3 vulnerability. I get as far as typing “poodle vuln” and Google helpfully suggests that I’m searching for “Poodle Swollen Vulva.” No. No, I wasn’t. ---

Bricker, this should be what you were looking for. It’s from the IT dept at my job. > [@](#): > > You may have heard about the computer security issue known as “POODLE.” This is not a virus; your computer won’t get infected with it. It’s a design flaw in an outdated protocol for secure internet communication – that’s the encrypted communication that your browser uses when you go to web sites with addresses that start with “https” instead of “http.” > > The “security vulnerability” is that if your browser uses SSL version 3 (sometimes called SSL3.0, SSLv3, or SSL3), or if it accepts an incoming SSL3 communication, someone on your network might be able to intercept confidential data and bypass the encryption of secure web sites. > > The POODLE vulnerability only affects the protocol called SSL3.0, which is outdated. Most organizations use newer, safer protocols. TLS 1.1 and later are common and secure choices. If you are using a more recent version of browser than Internet Explorer 6, then your computer probably does not use SSL3. And if your IT department has set up your institution’s computers to use one of the TLS protocols and has set up their browsers to refuse SSL3 connections, your network is safe ---

Here’s why I clicked on this thread. I have a new dog. It looks like its made of spare parts from various breeds. Lets just say one part looks way out of scale. When I saw this thread I thought “Hmmm, this might explain things” ---

Oh, come on. You know this vulnerability is caused by your computer being in heat. She’ll say anything to get some. (Seriously, that’s probably why it would be swollen. I learned with my rescued chihuahua, the first female dog we’ve owned in ages.) ---

From the thread title, I honestly thought that **Bricker** had a veterinary question about his poodle. ---

Well yesterday I was using my husband’s iPhone and typed a message to his boss (I was going to do an errand for the company very quickly that evening). I mentioned I didn’t know the new code to the whorehouse. No, I meant WAREhouse.:smack: Good thing his boss has a sense of humour. Now I kind of sort of wonder about what my husband is texting to others on his phone. 😃 ---

So SSLv3 is 0x0300 for the version in the handshake. That’s exactly what I was looking for – I found another resource in the interim but it just gave me a suggested iptables rule without explaining WHY it worked. Thanks!! ---

Waitaminute … Is there a poodle with a swollen vulva, or someone whose vulva is swollen by a poodle? Please answer this in some coded language that I can’t understand, because I just realized I don’t really want to know the answer. ---
