I've recently dropped USE=sslv3 from dev-libs/openssl again, and some revdeps of python (which had been built against dev-libs/openssl[ssl,sslv3]) now show breakage, such as:

Comment 1 Michał Górny archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2021-01-29 19:23:09 UTC
I guess we should just force not using SSLv3 unconditionally here, correct?
Comment 2 Andreas Sturmlechner gentoo-dev 2021-01-29 19:29:55 UTC
If there is a way in the build system yes, any revdep depending on such would have probably been found out about by now.
Comment 3 Michał Górny archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2021-01-29 19:38:49 UTC
Of course there isn't.  Apparently upstream is checking for some defines directly in the module code, e.g.:

#if defined(SSL3_VERSION) && !defined(OPENSSL_NO_SSL3)
    case PY_SSL_VERSION_SSL3:
        ctx = SSL_CTX_new(SSLv3_method());
        break;
#endif

I guess the simplest method would be to inject OPENSSL_NO_SSL3 somehow.
Comment 4 Michał Górny archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2021-01-29 19:47:02 UTC
Actually, it would be probably easier to just patch the code out than manage to inject the #define without actually hardcoding it in sysconfig.
Comment 5 Michał Górny archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2021-02-03 09:23:56 UTC
A fix is included in 3.10.0a5 patchset.  Will backport to older versions when they have a release or we have a security fix to backport.

    dev-lang/python: Bump to 3.10.0a5
    
    The patchset now force-disables SSLv3.
