Fix for CVE-2014-0076 backported to 0.9.8 branch
Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack" by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from: http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix. Thanks for mancha for backporting the fix to OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch.

*) Fix handling of warning-level alerts in SSL23 client mode so they
don't cause client-side termination (eg. on SNI unrecognized_name
warnings). Add client and server support for six additional alerts
