I know open ssl in various forms has a regular appearence on this list but i have another query. I have recieved the report below from nessus, however this server in question is running windows and is configured with microsoft ssl out of box install all patched etc.... any ideas why its flagging openssl as an isssue, could this be a false postive ?
 
. List of open ports :
   o https (443/tcp) (Security hole found)
   o general/tcp (Security warnings found)
   o general/udp (Security notes found)
 
. Vulnerability found on port https (443/tcp) :
 

    The remote host seem to be running a version of OpenSSL which is older
than
     0.9.6k or 0.9.7c.
 
    There is a heap corruption bug in this version which might be exploited
by
     an
    attacker to gain a shell on this host.
 
    Solution : If you are running OpenSSL, Upgrade to version 0.9.6k or
0.9.7c
     or newer
    Risk factor : High
    CVE : CAN-2003-0543, CAN-2003-0544, CAN-2003-0545
    BID : 8732
    Other references : IAVA:2003-A-0015, RHSA:RHSA-2003:291-01,
     SuSE:SUSE-SA:2003:043
 
. Information found on port https (443/tcp)
 

    A SSLv2 server answered on this port

Thanks in advance
