Starting with 2.7.9, this affects the 2.7 branch as well.

Please note that it's not only out-of-maintenance FreeBSD versions that are 
affected, but also a current version of Solaris, namely Solaris 10. The end of 
"Premier" support for Solaris 10 is January 2018 and the end of "Extended" 
support for Solaris 10 is January 2021, according to 
http://www.oracle.com/us/support/library/lifetime-support-hardware-301321.pdf

Solaris 10 has OpenSSL 0.9.7 and all security fixes are back-ported to it, more

For the record, this is an issue in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 too. For RHEL 4, 
"Extended" support ends on March 31, 2017, according to
