Question
If I build applications using a later version of openssl and run the compiled binaries on an operating system with earlier versions of openssl will there be any problems?
Example: I build applications using openssl 0.9.7b on
linux redhat version 7.2 with kernel 2.4.7 and gnu gcc 2.96
and then run these binaries on linux redhat version 7.2 with
kernel 2.4.17 gnu gcc 2.96 that has openssl version 0.9.6g.
It depends on how you are building your application. If you link your application against static libraries then I think it shouldn't matter. But if you link your application against shared libraries then it may have problems...
