Unusably short session_id provided – bug in openssl-0.9.8f

According to this thread I started, the ‘unusably short session_id provided‘ issue I discussed earlier is related to a bug in openssl-0.9.8f. I’ve added 0.9.8g to package.keywords and I’m currently doing some testing.

For those that don’t know how to do this, simply add this to your /etc/portage/package.keywords:


=dev-libs/openssl-0.9.8g ~x86

and re-emerge openssl. You might want to do a revdep-rebuild as well. I’ll let you know if I notice any weirdness. I’ll be testing on one box for now.
