HI,

Currently I am using splunk version of Version:8.1.2. And i would like to know the openssl version which is used in splunk version. So i ran 2 commands to know the openssl version but i am getting 2 different results from that commands.

so which one do i need to consider???

1. splunk@splunkidx$ ./splunk/bin/splunk cmd openssl version
OpenSSL 1.0.2w-fips 9 Sep 2020

2.splunk@splunkidx$ openssl version
OpenSSL 1.1.1k FIPS 25 Mar 2021

The first command give version of openssl that ships with Splunk. The second command gives openssl version installed by OS, hence the difference.

My testing shows Splunkforwarder 9.0.1 isn't running the vulnerable OpenSSL 3.0

[root@localhost opt]# export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/splunkforwarder/lib
[root@localhost opt]# /opt/splunkforwarder/bin/openssl version
WARNING: can't open config file: /opt/splunk-home/openssl/openssl.cnf
