If that's the case (Jeffrey has "not observed the behavior") then I have done 
something wrong, which has been my suspicion anyway.   But it seemed pretty 
straightforward.



Should simply setting the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3 flag take care of it?   I have done 
this both on the CTX and the session level.



At CTX init we do this:

Ø  sslv23_method()

Ø  SSL_CTX_new()

Ø  ssl_set_options (SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 | SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2)



at session init:

Ø  SSL_new()

Ø  ssl_set_options (SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 | SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2)

Ø



this is lab code – will be dependent on server configuration to disable SSLv3 
based on customer’s compatibility needs.



Thanks again.

If that's the case, then a security related defect should be filed at 
https://www.openssl.org/support/rt.html.



I have to qualify it with "if that's the case" because I use those same 
options, and I have not observed the behavior.
