Hi Adrien,

what's the criteria for backporting?

The OPENSSL_FORCE_FIPS_MODE worked well until recently it caused issue to our 
customers. Pymssql v2.3.12 or newer version seems only check the existence of 
OPENSSL_FORCE_FIPS_MODE rather than the value (pymssql behaves under FIPS mode 
when OPENSSL_FORCE_FIPS_MODE is set and regardless of the value).
It appears that OPENSSL_FORCE_FIPS_MODE is not a well-documented environment 
variable. I’m concerned that different software may interpret or implement it 
inconsistently, which could lead to increasing compatibility issues over time.
