Title:
  SSL 3.0 is vulnerable, browser should  not use

Status in “chromium-browser” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Release:14.04.1 
  Version: 37.0.2062.120-0ubuntu0.14.04.1~pkg1049

  The Chromium browser requires an additonal flag to be specified at
  invocation to avoid falling back kto SSL 3.0 which is a vulnerable
  protocol.  This option/flag should be specified by default.  SSL 3.0
  is slated to be removed in the future, so the impact of this change is
  inevitable.

  More detail at:

  Browser reconfiguration info can be found at:

  For Ubuntu, the attached patch should be sufficient.
