Firefox 10.0 SSL/TLS vulnerability

    Since the Beast attack last September 2011 with CA's being hijacked, SSL/TLS no longer appears secure. The TLS 1.0 protocol may allow an attacker to decrypt encrypted traffic posing as a man-in-the-middle.

    Part of the solution was to upgrade from TLS 1.0 to the 1.2 protocol, but FF10.0 still shows TLS 1.0 when you open Options>Encryption, so the vulnerability persists.

    Has anyone solved this problem for FF10.0? How?
