No, it does not ship with 0.9.7. It ships with 0.9.8zg, the absolute latest in the 0.9.8 series. It is unfortunate that 0.9.8 is shipping at all (as it has numerous issues), but Apple has removed the development headers in El Capitan so nothing "new" can link against it now (although apps compiled against it on 10.10 and earlier can still use it). It will be interesting to see what Apple does when 0.9.8 is officially EOL at the end of this year. They may choose to backport fixes (if necessary) or they may just ignore it until 10.12 comes out and they decide to fully remove it.
- yuhong 11y agoI am talking about the multiple versions shipped for compatibility with old apps. It is not easy to access, but look for /usr/lib/libssl.0.9.7.dylib I think. I think it is used for apps compiled using Leopard or older SDKs, which I hope no App Store apps are using, but... BTW, back in the PowerPC days they even used to ship with the even older 0.9.6 (only got rid of it when Rosetta was killed).
- reaperhulk 11y agoAh, yes, those are indeed shipped for ABI compatibility with old apps. Chances are that was last updated the last time 0.9.7 got a release, which would be Feb 2007 I believe (0.9.7m).
- yuhong 11y agoI think Apple later patched it to for example disable renegotiation I think.
