gpetrowich Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 So I can't seem to tell from the articles about the recent apple ssl security issue and subsequent fixes for Lion, Mountain Lion and Mavericks... Does this issue affect Snow Leopard and if there is no patch from apple for SL, are we all screwed (those of us running SL on a Dell d430)? Seems the consensus is that the D430 doesn't do ML or Mavericks very well, if at all. Only thing I have read says use stop using Safari and Apple Mail. Thoughts?

Darvinko Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 There has been no official word on the status of Snow Leopard. As you indicated, there have been patches for Lion, Mountain Lion and Mavericks issued. Optional browsers (Google, Firefox, etc.) often don't utilize Apple's SSL protocol, and therefore are not impacted by the flaw. If you are concerned, you might be better served using an alternate browser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jruschme Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 My understanding is that it is a Mavericks thing. You can always run Safari and surf over to https://gotofail.com which should be the definitive answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
