An update that solves three vulnerabilities can now be installed.

Description:

compat-openssl098 was updated to fix three security issues.

NOTE: this update alone DOESN'T FIX the POODLE SSL protocol vulnerability. OpenSSL only adds downgrade detection support for client applications. See https://www.suse.com/support/kb/doc.php?id=7015773 for mitigations.

These security issues were fixed: - Session ticket memory leak (CVE-2014-3567). - Fixed build option no-ssl3 (CVE-2014-3568). - Added support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV (CVE-2014-3566).
