Why would a PDF generation library need OpenSSL functionality?

Sure, we use encryption for:
- encrypting PDFs,
   - either using passwords (owner password and optionally a user password),
   - or using a certificate
- signing PDFS, this involves using a certificate

Where it says certificate, PKI is involved.
Public/private keys are also used in the context of SSL, but I fail to 
see why iText would be affected by an OpenSSL problem. Maybe you can 
explain, but I can't.
