Hi,

 

I probably have a silly question but, I currently have a bunch of customized
Linux operating systems and on it runs OpenSSL. The version and rpm check
indicates "OpenSSL 0.9.8h 28 May 2008" which is an older version.
Furthermore, the change logs too indicate the latest update as:

 

OpenSSL CHANGES

 _______________

 

 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h  [28 May 2008]

 

It is important to have the latest OpenSSL security patches in but, due to
backport updates version compares are NOT useful. How can one definitely
confirm that OpenSSL has in fact been patched to the latest version? I see
no full disclosures on vulns in the versions between 0.9.8h to the latest
that would help me confirm whether it has been patched or NOT.

 

Could someone help me out with testing and confirming this?

 

Thanks,

Shawn
