Bug Description

Opening a fresh bug report on Cluster as the issue has been marked as Fix Released on standalone but there have been no coding changes on github for cluster to implement the fix.

Please see https://bugs.launchpad.net/percona-server/+bug/1462856 for details about this bug in the standalone server edition. This issue prevents SSL connections to any Percona XtraDB Cluster from any server with a fully patched openssl that requires 768 bit or more DH keys.

This issue should be considered a significant security issue as the only workarounds are to not use ssl connections, use a non DH cipher or not upgrade openssl to an affected version (which introduces it's own set of security issues).

Please port the patch from Percona Server to Cluster and issue a security release. This is a month old at this point and needs to be resolved as soon as possible.
