hello skp53106, this is more of a vulnerability that can be exploited in some webservers to downgrade to encryption levels that are more easy to break. a fix will land in the next firefox release version to mitigate such downgrade attacks on the part of the browser. until then you could use this addon that disables the cipher suite susceptible to the attack: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/disable-dhe/
