Well, there's always modification.  If someone adds or removes encrypted
data, or modifies it in transit, will your implementation detect it?
This is particularly important when using stream cipher based
ciphersuites.

Also, does your implementation do perform correct client/server
certificate validation?  It's a pretty complex process, and other major
implementations have had bugs in the past in this area.

good luck,
