This bug report is related to a problem that has been solved already for Linux systems in patch 0.9.8c. It has also been pointed out in open Ticket #1298. (Is it possible that this ticket was the root of the Linux fix? If so maybe status should be changed in the Ticket.)
Patch: openssl-0.9.8g OS: Solaris 10 Problem description: select call in RAND_poll (rand_unix.c:154) fails when the file descriptor exceeds 1024. Proposed solution: In 0.9.8c there was a fix added in this method for Linux systems. This fix should be made for Unix systems as well. Our proposal: Current: @ rand_unix.c:214 #if defined(OPENSSL_SYS_LINUX) .... #endif Fix: #if defined(OPENSSL_SYS_LINUX) || defined(OPENSSL_SYS_UNIX) .... #endif Q: What is the time frame for a patch release containing a fix for this problem? We have used OpenSsl for several years now and this is the first bug that we've have found in your code. Thank you for a good product.
