Changes in version 0.2.4.25 - 2014-10-20
Tor 0.2.4.25 disables SSL3 in response to the recent "POODLE" attack
(even though POODLE does not affect Tor). It also works around a crash

o Major security fixes (also in 0.2.5.9-rc):
- Disable support for SSLv3. All versions of OpenSSL in use with Tor

for this old (and insecure) protocol. Fixes bug 13426.
o Major bugfixes (openssl bug workaround, also in 0.2.5.9-rc):
