OpenSSL v1.0.2 usage in ONTAP
Applies to
ONTAP 9.1 - 9.7
Issue
The OpenSSL Foundation does not public support OpenSSL v1.0.2 used by ONTAP. This may cause potential security risks. NetApp has a Premier Support contract with the OpenSSL Foundation in place through 2023 to address this concern.
Certain customers indicate that ONTAP storage systems are running unsupported version of OpenSSL 1.0.2. They may also indicate that the OpenSSL version is not patched and is vulnerable to security issues now and in future.
