I've updated the version of OpenSSL to 0.9.8b-1. This also includes the
openssl-devel package. The compatibility package openssl097 has been
updated to 0.9.7j-1.
This is a upstream bugfix release. The Cygwin release is built from
the vanilla version.
Official release message:
=======================================================================
OpenSSL version 0.9.8b and 0.9.7j released
==========================================
OpenSSL - The Open Source toolkit for SSL/TLS
http://www.openssl.org/
The OpenSSL project team is pleased to announce the release of
version 0.9.8b of our open source toolkit for SSL/TLS. This new
OpenSSL version is a bugfix release and incorporates
changes and bugfixes to the toolkit. For a complete list of
changes, please see http://www.openssl.org/source/exp/CHANGES.
We also release 0.9.7j, which contains several FIPS updates and bugfixes
compared to 0.9.7i. It is the first full release of OpenSSL that can link
against a validated FIPS module.
These updates contain several bugfixes to resolve compilation issues under
Win32 and errors in CA creation via the CA.pl script.
We consider OpenSSL 0.9.8b to be the best version of OpenSSL
available and we strongly recommend that users of older versions
upgrade as soon as possible. OpenSSL 0.9.8b is available for
download via HTTP and FTP from the following master locations (you
can find the various FTP mirrors under
http://www.openssl.org/source/mirror.html):
* http://www.openssl.org/source/
* ftp://ftp.openssl.org/source/
For those who want or have to stay with the 0.9.7 series of
OpenSSL, we strongly recommend that you upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.7j
as soon as possible. It's available in the same location as
0.9.8b.
The distribution file names are:
