+=== OpenSSL 3 in base - improved

+
+This is a follow-up to the link:https://www.freebsd.org/status/report-2023-04-2023-06/[previous quarterly report] on the link:https://www.freebsd.org/status/report-2023-04-2023-06/#_openssl_3_in_base[integration of OpenSSL 3 into the base system].
+
+The most obvious update since the previous report is certainly the 3.0.10 and then 3.0.11 releases, fixing CVE issues with low to medium severity (link:https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2023-2975[CVE-2023-2975], link:https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2023-3446[CVE-2023-3446], link:https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2023-3817[CVE-2023-3817], link:https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2023-4807[CVE-2023-4807]).
+
+However this is not the only change, and this quarter some issues specific to the integration were fixed, most of which were found while building ports with OpenSSL 3 in the base system.
+
+This included:
+
+* Linking the engines and the legacy provider with the libcrypto.so shared object, for proper visibility of symbols, and for which a link:https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/commit/Makefile.inc1?id=1a18383a52bc373e316d224cef1298debf6f7e25[hack was required in the build system].
+* Correcting the list of source files for the FIPS provider.
+* Ensuring backward compatibility for the deprecated 0.9.8 API, which was notably helpful for the PAM authentication module from package:security/pam_ssh_agent_auth[], based on OpenSSH's man:ssh-agent[1] authentication mechanism.
