I haven't had time to check the changelog for openssl on EL5 (not close to /my/
computers). But it wouldn't surprise me if they have already fixed this. But as
SSL_OP_NO_TICKET was introduced in a newer base release than EL5 uses, they have
most likely solved it in another way. Maybe by always adding this flag implicit?
(Which would have the benefit of not needing to recompile all OpenSSL
applications with this flaw).
IIRC, the guy overseeing the Secure Response Team in RH is Mark Cox, which again
is also an upstream OpenSSL maintainer. So I'm quite sure all RH releases have
fixed this issue.
