Percona Server has implemented TLS v1.1 and v1.2 protocol support and at the same time disabled TLS v1.0 support (support for TLS v1.0 can be enabled by adding the TLSv1 to tls_version variable). Support for TLS v1.1 and v1.2 protocols has been implemented by porting the tls_version variable from 5.7 server. TLS v1.0 protocol has been disabled because it will no longer be viable for PCI after June 30th 2016. Variable default has been changed from TLSv1,TLSv1.1,TLSv1.2 to TLSv1.1,TLSv1.2 to disable the support for TLS v1.0 by default.
The client-side has the ability to make TLSv1.1 and 1.2 connections, but the option to allow only some protocol versions (--tls-version, MYSQL_OPT_TLS_VERSION in C API) has not been backported due to compatibility concerns and relatively easy option to use 5.7 clients instead if needed. Note: MASTER_TLS_VERSION clause of CHANGE MASTER TO statement has not been backported.
