The version of OpenSSL installed on the remote host is potentially affected by the following remote code execution and denial of service vulnerabilities :
OpenSSL could allow an attacker to cause a buffer overrun situation when an attacker sends invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS client or server, which forces it to run arbitrary code on a vulnerable client or server. (CVE-2014-0195)
An attacker could cause a denial of service by exploiting a flaw in the do_ssl3_write function via a NULL pointer dereference. NOTE: Only versions 1.0.1.500 through 1.0.1.510 are vulnerable. (CVE-2014-0198)
An attacker could cause a denial of service by sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an OpenSSL DTLS client, resulting in recursive execution of code and an eventual crash. (CVE-2014-0221)
An attacker could use a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack to force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL SSL/TLS clients and servers. The attacker could decrypt and modify traffic from the attacked client and server.
The attack can only be performed between a vulnerable client and server. (CVE-2014-0224)
An attacker could cause a denial of service by exploiting OpenSSL’s anonymous ECDH cipher suites present within OpenSSL clients. (CVE-2014-3470)

- For OpenSSL 0.9.8 version :

zcat openssl-12.9.8.2502.tar.Z | tar xvf
IMPORTANT : If possible, it is recommended that a mksysb backup of the
system be created. Verify it is both bootable and readable before
proceeding.
To preview the fix installation :
installp -apYd . openssl
To install the fix package :
