> This update was built against 'CentOS-6.5 + updates' and that is where it is

> a zero day update to CentOS-6.6 when that is released as we are currently
> building CentOS-6.6 from the released Red Hat Enterprise Linux sources.

> Please also note that even after installing this update, further action is
> required to mitigate the POODLE issue on CentOS-6. Please see this link for
> steps to take and ways to test for both the POODLE and TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV 
> issues.
