The attack exploited a known cipher suite vulnerability that was considered low-risk until a proof of concept arrived, prompting browser vendors and web server administrators to quickly move to TLS v1.1. This article shows how the BEAST attack worked, how a theoretical vulnerability became practically exploitable, and why modern browsers are no longer vulnerable.
