Vulnerabilities in end-of-life OpenSSL

OpenSSL 1.0.2 and 1.1.1 are past end of life, and 3.0 joined them on 7 September 2026. Old Linux distributions still ship them. These are the versions in use, with every vulnerability the US National Vulnerability Database lists for them.

Vulnerabilities from the US National Vulnerability Database, 28 October 2026, for the upstream version, counting only entries where OpenSSL itself is the vulnerable product. Exploited: listed in the CISA catalogue of known exploited vulnerabilities. Package versions from each distribution's public repositories. Distribution builds include some vendor fixes; your assessment shows which risks are real.
