Hi everyone, i guess this is an newbie question: Wenn I patch a software like openssl does the version of the software change. The original version of openssl I had was openssl 0.9.6.c (this is the vulnerable version), but after a patch everything works fine (someone said in this newsgroup):
if the latest rpm on suse update is the -80 then you're safe :) So the message in your logfile just show you that someone try to exploit the hole.
But the version stays the same. Is this correct
Yes, because the version is likely some #DEFINE ... somewhere in the code, and unless it is changed as well by a patch it will stay the same. Peter -- Thought is limitation. Free your mind.
