How to fix?

Upgrade OpenSSL to version 1.0.108 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 Resource Management Errors. OpenSSL is vulnerable to denial of service (DoS) attacks. These attacks can be made using an invalid DTLS handshake causing OpenSSL to go into a recursive loop.
