How to fix?

Upgrade OpenSSL to version 1.0.111 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 Cryptographic Issues. OpenSSL is vulnerable to brute-force decryption attacks and RSA-to-EXPORT_RSA downgrade attacks. These attacks are possible through the ssl3_get_key_exchange function which offers a weak ephemeral RSA key in a noncompliant role, related to the "FREAK" issue.
