New submission from Marc-Andre Lemburg: With the backport of the Python 3 ssl module, the default context options of the ssl module were changed.
While this provides better security in many cases, it also causes breakage with servers or clients which do not support TLSv1 and later. The ssl module should provide a way to globally set the default context options to work around this to allow e.g. removing the OP_NO_SSLv3 option in order to get things to work again without having to change the application using the ssl module. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 231133 nosy: lemburg priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: ssl module in 2.7.9 should provide a way to configure default context options versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22866> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
