It was, part of it. RC4 had a CVE score below 4 (which many interpreted as an issue they could argue around, i.e. "we need to support Windows XP!"), but BEAST had a score above 4 (auto-fail).

RC4's now thoroughly toast, and Windows XP's unsupported - and now finds itself without any secure ciphers at all. It's zmap time… |
