Re: Applying security patches to 0.9.8a

Hi,

The OS is SLES 10 SP3 and there are currently close to 80 binaries
that appear to use libssl.so.0.9.8. They are from a bunch of different
packages, so I would imagine that updating to anything more recent
than 0.9.8 would be a major hassle and possibly not even possible.

I did find openssl-0.9.8zh.tar.gz which was last modified in 2015
which is way better than 0.9.8a which hasn't been touched since 2005.
I'm trying to install 0.9.8zh now to see if that works.

But I know someone is going to ask: Can you apply all of the newer
security fixes to 0.9.8zh? So I'll ask...can I?

Thanks,

Rob
