osCommerce and SSLv3 / Poodle


Recommended Posts

Hi All..

 

None of the modules bundled with our releases force curl to use a specific SSL version when communicating with service providers (eg, PayPal). Instead we leave it up to PHP/Curl to negotiate the best connection possible when connecting to servers.

 

Due to the recent SSLv3 / Poodle vulnerability, many service providers are disabling SSLv3 connections to their servers (eg, PayPal are in the process of doing this).

 

As none of our bundled modules force a specific SSL version to be used, no code changes are necessary and connections will continue to work when service providers have disabled SSLv3.

 

Kind regards,

:heart:, osCommerce

I use a Pay Pal module by DEVosc that I found on these forums. I know very little about how all this stuff works, is there any hint on how to check the module to see if it will still work, like what to look for in the code? Or is there a place where I can hire someone to look through the module and see if it will still function?

Just switch to sandbox mode in the Devosc PayPal config settings (if available) and make a test order. The PayPal sandbox has already disabled SSL v3, so if the test order does not work, you know that you have a problem. In this case you can either have a developer fix your Devosc plugin or use one of the bundled ones Harald mentioned.

@@jamo32 The problem mentioned here is a server issue, not something in your shop. Run the test on the site mentioned above and if it fails, as, your host to fix it.
