OpenSSL Release Notes (5900-1560, August 2011)

OpenSSL A.00.09.07d (based on OpenSSL Open Source version 0.9.7d)•
• OpenSSL A.00.09.07e (based on OpenSSL Open Source version 0.9.7e)
• OpenSSL A.00.09.07i (based on OpenSSL Open Source version 0.9.7i)
• OpenSSL A.00.09.07l (based on OpenSSL Open Source version 0.9.7l)
A few patch updates are available for these releases of OpenSSL. A patch release typically
has the same base version number (for example, A.00.09.07m) with a patch number appended
to it (for example, A.00.09.07m.009).
13 I have HP-UX Internet Express OpenSSL 0.9.7c installed on my system. Will installing OpenSSL
A.00.09.07m and A.00.09.08q automatically uninstall HP-UX Internet Express OpenSSL
0.9.7c?
No. The HP-UX Internet Express OpenSSL 0.9.7c and OpenSSL A.00.09.07m and A.00.09.08q
product depots have a conflict with the product and bundle names. If you have the HP-UX
Internet Express OpenSSL product installed and want to upgrade to OpenSSL A.00.09.07m
or A.00.09.08q, you must first uninstall the HP-UX Internet Express OpenSSL product. If you
attempt to install OpenSSL A.00.09.07m or A.00.09.08q on a system without removing the
HP-UX Internet Express OpenSSL product, the OpenSSL A.00.09.07m and A.00.09.08q
installation fails with an error message. If you have HP-UX Internet Express OpenSSL 0.9.7c
installed on your system, use the following command to remove it:
# swremove ixOpenSSL
14 I have already built Open Source OpenSSL 0.9.7m or A.0.9.8g by downloading the source
code directly from http://www.openssl.org. Now I want to upgrade to OpenSSL A.00.09.08q.
What must I do? Do I have to remove the preexisting OpenSSL product from my system?
You may have a conflict depending on the location of OpenSSL 0.9.7m and 0.9.8j on your
system. HP recommends that you uninstall the previous OpenSSL version before installing
OpenSSL A.00.09.08q.
15 Will HP support recompiled versions of OpenSSL A.00.09.08q?
HP does not support recompiled versions of OpenSSL A.00.09.08q. The source code is
provided only for reference.
16 Why are idea, rc5, and mdc2 algorithms not configured in OpenSSL A.00.09.08q?
The crypto algorithms idea, rc5, and mdc2 crypto algorithms have patent issues. HP does not
redistribute any software using these algorithms.
17 How do I find out which OpenSSL version I have on my system? What if I have more than one
version?
Use the #swlist command to find out which version of OpenSSL is running on your system.
You can also use the what command to verify the OpenSSL version number on your machine.
It is not possible to have both the InternetExpress version and a supported HP-UX OpenSSL
version of OpenSSL on the same machine. The following are examples of using the #swlist
and what commands.
22 OpenSSL A.00.09.08q.001, A.00.09.08q.002, and A.00.09.08q.003
