There are probably some partial lists, but there certainly is not a definitive one, since I know of products which use OpenSSL but don't advertise the fact. And while it's *possible* that certain well-resourced organizations have done their best to compile comprehensive lists, but it's unlikely even those are perfectly accurate, and in any case you and I don't have access to them. OpenSSL is very widely used. Enlyft claims they have 317844 *companies* using OpenSSL, for who knows how many products. Of course, many of those are internal use, or use in widely-used products and projects; but some significant fraction represents ISV products that depend on OpenSSL. A quick search didn't turn up any useful statistics on OpenSSL use in OSS projects. (github's dependency graph, for example, had no information.) Anything more precise than "a whole lot" will require some real research, I suspect.
