OpenSSL 0.9.8k was updated to fix several security issues.

We now also generate 2048-bit DH parameters by default. * CVE-2015-1788: Malformed ECParameters could cause an infinite loop. * CVE-2015-1789: An out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time was fixed. * CVE-2015-1790: A PKCS7 decoder crash with missing EnvelopedContent was fixed. * CVE-2015-1792: A CMS verification infinite loop when using an unknown hash function was fixed. * CVE-2015-1791: Fixed a race condition in NewSessionTicket creation. * CVE-2015-3216: Fixed a potential crash in ssleay_rand_bytes due to locking regression. * fixed a timing side channel in RSA decryption (bnc#929678)
Additional changes:
* In the default SSL cipher string EXPORT ciphers are now disabled. This will only get active if applications get rebuilt and actually use this string. (bnc#931698) * Added the ECC ciphersuites to the DEFAULT cipher class (bnc#879179)
