Older versions of SSL/TLS protocol like "SSLv3" have been proven to be insecure.
This rule raises an issue when an SSL/TLS context is created with an insecure protocol version, i.e. when one of the following constants is detected in the code:
* ``++OpenSSL.SSL.SSLv3_METHOD++`` (Use instead ``++OpenSSL.SSL.TLSv1_2_METHOD++``)
* ``++ssl.PROTOCOL_SSLv3++`` (Use instead ``++ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1_2++``)
Protocol versions different from TLSv1.2 and TLSv1.3 are considered insecure.
== Noncompliant Code Example
----
from OpenSSL import SSL
SSL.Context(SSL.SSLv3_METHOD) # Noncompliant
import ssl
ssl.SSLContext(ssl.PROTOCOL_SSLv3) # Noncompliant
== Compliant Solution
SSL.Context(SSL.TLSv1_2_METHOD) # Compliant
ssl.SSLContext(ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1_2) # Compliant
