This seems to say that this issue won't be addressed in RHEL6 or RHEL7 however the released errata states that it was resolved. https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2015-0066.html Which is correct?
RHSA-2015:0066 updates openssl packages. Quoted statement is for openssl097a and openssl098e compatibility packages.
Oh, of course. I understand now. Thanks.
This issue has been addressed in the following products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Via RHSA-2015:0066 https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2015-0066.html
