This morning, OpenSSL released six security patches—versions 1.0.2b, 1.0.1n, 1.0.0s, and 0.9.8zg—for new security vulnerabilities discovered in OpenSSL. These patches fix six vulnerabilities: five are rated moderate risk and one is classified as low risk.
For a full list, see the OpenSSL advisory.

As part of the industry's refocus on strengthening the security in the cores services that multitude organizations rely on, OpenSSL continues to discover and then patch vulnerabilities in the OpenSSL framework. This process of finding and fixing is needed for long-term security and to keep the projects strong and hopefully, to patch these vulnerabilities before attackers can deduce ways to take advantage of them. Although the time and energy required to apply the patches can frustrate even the most dedicated system admin, these steps are needed to keep the OpenSSL code secure now and for years to come.
