Redundancy in ASN.1 parsing paragraph

edit

The section "Denial of service: ASN.1 parsing" looks like it has a redundant sentence, but the two sentences seem to be in conflict with each other. Not sure which version is more accurate. Quesoteric (talk) 07:14, 11 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

OpenSSL with a graphical user interface

edit

I saw the external links "Graphical user interface for OpenSSL in the browser". Would it be interesting to have a short section listing the existing software which offer a GUI for OpenSSL? Cryptocollector (talk) 21:10, 14 March 2026 (UTC)Reply

Insecure algorithms

edit

There should be a note regarding insecure algorithms so they can be avoided when especially when generating passwords [1] "insecure, or are no longer in common use such as MD2 or RC4." DGerman (talk) 17:54, 4 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

Apple Mac OS deficiency

edit

It should be noted that Apple's mac OS Tahoe provides an old version (LibreSSL 3.3.6) of openssl which does NOT support ANY secure algorithms. Use homebrew to install OpenSSL 3.2.0 23 Nov 2023 (Library: OpenSSL 3.2.0 23 Nov 2023) DGerman (talk) 17:54, 4 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
