SSL: SSL Export Grade Ciphersuite Server Negotiation Attempt

This signature detects an export grade ciphersuite server negotiation attempt. This export-grade cryptography includes out-of-date encryption key lengths that can then easily be decrypted.

Extended Description

The ssl3_get_key_exchange function in s3_clnt.c in OpenSSL before 0.9.8zd, 1.0.0 before 1.0.0p, and 1.0.1 before 1.0.1k allows remote SSL servers to conduct RSA-to-EXPORT_RSA downgrade attacks and facilitate brute-force decryption by offering a weak ephemeral RSA key in a noncompliant role, related to the "FREAK" issue. NOTE: the scope of this CVE is only client code based on OpenSSL, not EXPORT_RSA issues associated with servers or other TLS implementations.
