    Hi Paul,

    Our plugin does, yes. This is really more of a web server environment issue than a code issue. As long as your server software stack is relatively up-to-date you shouldn’t have any issue.

    For more details you can see this post of ours: https://www.angelleye.com/paypal-ssl-error-poodle-vulnerability/

    The most important piece of info would be…

    If you want to use TLS 1.2 you’ll need to upgrade to OpenSSL 1.0.1 as a minimum, and then you’ll be able to set CURLOPT_SSLVERSION to 6 (TLS 1.2).

    If you want TLS 1.2 to be used automatically during SSL requests, you’ll also need to upgrade to PHP 5.5.19+ (this is the ideal solution but many projects are still on older PHP versions).

    Take a look at that and let me know if you have any specific questions.
