http://www.openssl.org/source/
The version shipping with Apache Lounge's build is vulnerable to a nasty security flaw. Isn't apparently exploitable via Apache. But an update is probably advised:

(Is there any reason why the 0.98 branch is shipped rather than 1.00?)
Cheers,

Thanks for letting us know.
Indeed, Apache server is not effected. When I look to the other changes, I see no reason to upgrade now.
We follow the policy of the ASF, so we ship our distro also with 0.98.

ASF ships the Win32 Binary with OpenSSL 0.9.8o (MSI Installer), that we follow in principle.
