Today in conjunction with an OpenSSL Security Advisory several researchers announced a new attack on HTTPS they are calling “Decrypting RSA with Obsolete and Weakened Encryption,” or DROWN. Due to Fastly’s existing TLS configuration, our services, and customers using Fastly as their CDN, are not vulnerable to this attack.

Fastly has fixed a problem in our default Transport Layer Security (TLS) configuration that prevented proper certificate validation when connecting to customer origin servers.

This vulnerability has been assigned Fastly Security severity rating of HIGH.
