The OpenSSL Project is a collaborative effort to develop a robust,
commercial-grade, full-featured, and Open Source toolkit implementing
the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL v3) and Transport Layer Security (TLS v1,
v1.1, v1.2, v1.3) protocols with full-strength cryptography world-wide.
The project is managed by a worldwide community of volunteers that use
the Internet to communicate, plan, and develop the OpenSSL tookit
and its related documentation.
OpenSSL is based on the excellent SSLeay library developed by Eric
A. Young and Tim J. Hudson. The OpenSSL toolkit is licensed under
an Apache-style licence, which basically means that you are free
to get and use it for commercial and non-commercial purposes subject
to some simple license conditions.
This port (security/openssl35) will be renamed to
security/openssl per 2026-07-01 (2026Q3) in anticipation
of the End-of-Life of OpenSSL 3.0.
See: https://openssl-library.org/roadmap/index.html
If upgrading
This port (security/openssl) will update from 3.0 to 3.5
per 2026-07-01 (2026Q3) in anticipation of the End-of-Life
of OpenSSL 3.0.
A new port (security/openssl30) will be created for the
remainder of the lifespan of OpenSSL 3.0 and FreeBSD 14.
See: https://openssl-library.org/roadmap/index.html
Affects: users of security/openssl and security/openssl35
Author: brnrd@FreeBSD.org
Reason:
The openssl port was renamed to openssl30 and subsequently the
openssl35 port was renamed to openssl.
The shared library version of OpenSSL has been bumped.
Users of DEFAULT_VERSIONS= ssl=openssl35 must update this to
ssl=openssl.
Users of DEFAULT_VERSIONS= ssl=openssl30 should not change this unless
they use ports that require the deprecated OpenSSL 3.0 version with
its documented vulnerabilities.
You must rebuild all ports that depend on OpenSSL if you use OpenSSL
from ports.
Port Moves
port moved to security/openssl on 2026-09-30 REASON: Upgrade security/openssl to 3.5
security/openssl: Security upgrade to 3.5.9
OpenSSL 3.0 is end-of-life and has known vulnerabilities.
Upgrade port to OpenSSL 3.5 by renaming security/openssl35
Security: 0d183075-bcb5-11f1-b09d-8447094a420
MFH: 2026Q3
all: drop support for FreeBSD 13, mips and risc64sf
