| Description: | The remote host is missing an update as announced via advisory SSA:2005-286-01.
New OpenSSL packages are available for Slackware 8.1, 9.0, 9.1, 10.0, 10.1, 10.2, and -current to fix a security issue. Under certain conditions, an attacker acting as a 'man in the middle' may force a client and server to fall back to the less-secure SSL 2.0 protocol.
