--- Comment #10 from Teemu Torma <teemu at torma.org> ---
I might add that disabling SSLv3 from auto negotiation has really nothing to do
with it being the only protocol available.  The problem is that
man-in-the-middle can cause the auto negotiation to fail.  Even if both server
and client support TLSv1.2, man-in-the-middle can signal client that protocol
is not supported, thus client tries lower protocol versions until the
connection with SSLv3 succeeds and is vulnerable to POODLE attack.
