How to fix?

Upgrade OpenSSL to version 1.0.202 or higher.

Overview

OpenSSL is a SSL/TLS and Crypto toolkit. Deprecated in Mac OS and gone in iOS, this spec gives your project non-deprecated OpenSSL support.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Race Condition. OpenSSL is vulnerable to denial of service (DoS) attacks and possibly other attacks. A malicious user can pass a reused session ticket to the system that can cause a double free that can lead to the system crashing.
