Mentalis.org Security Library documentation

SSL and TLS

PCT and SSLv2 support

The current version of the Mentalis.org Security Library does not support SSLv2 or PCTv1. If you need to use one of these protocols, you should download an older version of the Security Library, however this is not encouraged. There are known bugs in the older versions of the Security Library so using it in production environments is certainly not advisable. The SSLv2 and PCT protocols are also flawed and insecure; new applications should not use these protocols anymore.

We strongly encourage everyone to upgrade to the latest version of the Security Library and use SSL3 or TLS1 instead of SSL2 or PCT.
