Description of problem:
With POODLE SSLv3 should be disabled by default.

Comment 1 Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos 2014-10-17 04:35:51 UTC
Currently crypto-policies is only used in software the properly uses TLS negotiation, i.e., it is not vulnerable to the version rollback used in Poodle. Thus, SSL 3.0 will only be used as a last resort, when SSL 3.0 is the only commonly supported version.

However, the request to deprecate SSL 3.0 is certainly something we would like to do. I'm not sure if that should be done in F21 already.
