CVE-2014-3566: Apple Mac OS X

Low severity, CVSS 3.4. EPSS: 100% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The SSL protocol 3.0, as used in OpenSSL through 1.0.1i and other products, uses nondeterministic CBC padding, which makes it easier for man-in-the-middle attackers to obtain cleartext data via a padding-oracle attack, aka the "POODLE" issue.
