OpenSSL not updated when using freebsd-update

[Jay West]

Because it is a binary patch, and it does not update the "version" of SSL,
it just patches the version of SSL that you have - to not have the bug. All
you need to ensure is uname -r reports the new patch level and you're good.

Subject: OpenSSL not updated when using freebsd-update

Using a VirtualBox I installed FreeBSD 9.3 from here:

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/amd64/amd64/ISO-IMAGES/9.3/

When I initially run the system, I get the following info:

# uname -r
9.3-RELEASE
# openssl version
OpenSSL 0.9.8za-freebsd 5 Jun 2014

Next I run:

/usr/sbin/freebsd-update fetch
/usr/sbin/freebsd-update install
shutdown -r now

When it reboots, I get the following info:

# uname -r
9.3-RELEASE-p3
# openssl version
OpenSSL 0.9.8za-freebsd 5 Jun 2014

Why hasn't OpenSSL been updated to a more recent (fixed) version?
