Name        : perl-IO-Socket-SSL
Product     : Fedora 20
Version     : 1.955
Release     : 2.fc20
URL         : http://search.cpan.org/dist/IO-Socket-SSL/
Summary     : Perl library for transparent SSL
Description :
This module is a true drop-in replacement for IO::Socket::INET that
uses SSL to encrypt data before it is transferred to a remote server
or client. IO::Socket::SSL supports all the extra features that one
needs to write a full-featured SSL client or server application:
multiple SSL contexts, cipher selection, certificate verification, and
SSL version selection. As an extra bonus, it works perfectly with
mod_perl.

Update Information:

This update fixes the function KEY_free in IO::Socket::SSL::Utils, which was calling the wrong underlying function in Net::SSLeay due to a typo in the code.
