+
+Notable changes:
+
+* openssl: Fully remove SSLv2 support, the `--enable-ssl2` command line argument will now produce an error. The DROWN Attack (https://drownattack.com/) creates a vulnerability where SSLv2 is enabled by a server, even if a client connection is not using SSLv2. The SSLv2 protocol is widely considered unacceptably broken and should not be supported. More information is available at https://www.openssl.org/news/vulnerabilities.html#2016-0800
+
+Note that the upgrade to OpenSSL 1.0.1s in Node.js v0.12.11 removed internal SSLv2 support. The change in this release was originally intended for v0.12.11. The `--enable-ssl2` command line argument now produces an error rather than being a no-op.

* domains:
- Prevent an exit due to an exception being thrown rather than emitting an 'uncaughtException' event on the `process` object when no error handler is set on the domain within which an error is thrown and an 'uncaughtException' event listener is set on `process`. (Julien Gilli) https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/3885
- Fix an issue where the process would not abort in the proper function call if an error is thrown within a domain with no error handler and `--abort-on-uncaught-exception` is used. (Julien Gilli) https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/3885

- Fix a double-free defect in parsing malformed DSA keys that may potentially be used for DoS or memory corruption attacks. It is likely to be very difficult to use this defect for a practical attack and is therefore considered low severity for Node.js users. More info is available at https://www.openssl.org/news/vulnerabilities.html#2016-0705
- Fix a defect that can cause memory corruption in certain very rare cases relating to the internal `BN_hex2bn()` and `BN_dec2bn()` functions. It is believed that Node.js is not invoking the code paths that use these functions so practical attacks via Node.js using this defect are _unlikely_ to be possible. More info is available at https://www.openssl.org/news/vulnerabilities.html#2016-0797
- Fix a defect that makes the CacheBleed Attack (https://ssrg.nicta.com.au/projects/TS/cachebleed/) possible. This defect enables attackers to execute side-channel attacks leading to the potential recovery of entire RSA private keys. It only affects the Intel Sandy Bridge (and possibly older) microarchitecture when using hyper-threading. Newer microarchitectures, including Haswell, are unaffected.
