DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in Microsoft Windows, which can be
exploited by malicious people to bypass certain security
restrictions.

The vulnerability is caused due to an error when handling the SSL/TLS
session version negotiation and can be exploited to downgrade the
connection to SSLv2 via Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attacks, potentially
leading to the client using a weaker ciphersuite.

SOLUTION:
Apply patches.
