OpenSSL Vulnerabilities

Recently 4 vulnerabilties have surfaced in OpenSSL version 0.9.6e and below. HP Apache based web server 1.3.26 also comes bundled with OpenSSL 0.9.6c. HP has not announced any patch or alternative. Can anyone tell when we should expect a patch.

Re: OpenSSL Vulnerabilities


In this case, HP does NOT own OpenSSL, but they have "ported" 9.6d.

If you need 9.6e or higher, then you could download the source and compile it.

Re: OpenSSL Vulnerabilities

I obviously know that HP has ported OpenSSL. However it is a requirement to offer patches when one is supporting an application. HP also does not own Apache or BIND but offer patches for them whenever there is a vulnerability and that is what we are looking for in this case.

Re: OpenSSL Vulnerabilities

Hi,

This is what we do. We download source code from openssl.org or openssh.com, compile and bundle them into packages. It is bit tedious. This way you don't have to wait for HP to release it's bundles.

Re: OpenSSL Vulnerabilities

Perhaps this can address some of the vulnerabilities...
