[issue23679] SSL Ciphers RC4

2015-03-16 Thread mogli

New submission from mogli:

The documentation (https://docs.python.org/2/library/ssl.html) says:
The settings in Python 2.7.9 are: PROTOCOL_SSLv23, OP_NO_SSLv2, and OP_NO_SSLv3 
with high encryption cipher suites without RC4

But it still seems to use RC4: https://www.howsmyssl.com/a/check

Also the test at https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/viewMyClient.html says it 
still supports SSLv3 (not so sure about this one).

So it seems the docs are wrong.

That was fast, great job!

For the record: The SSLv3 issue I also wrote about was a false positive because 
the test only works with Javascript. Python 2.7.9 has SSLv3 disabled by default 
as it should.

urllib2.urlopen("https://sslv3.dshield.org";)  # fails as it should
