Folks

It looks like there is a problem with openssl 0.9.7b and below
http://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20030930.txt

Question is , does openssh and other programs that rely on openssl need to be
re-compiled

My feeling is no because openssh and other such programs were not compiled as
a static programs.

Any thoughts ?
