Hi everybody

I wanted to ask if there's an estimate to when python3.9.x  will be built with the newest openssl 3 libraries ?
I'm not a developer myself, but I'm getting triggered by security that the libs we're using are outdated (openssl 1.1.x).

Thanks in advance and kind regards,

Stefano

Hi everybody

Nevermind, I checked the AIX Toolbox and the newest python version is compiled with openssl 3:
# ./python3
Python 3.9.23 (main, Jul 22 2025, 00:57:36)
[GCC 10.3.0] on aix
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import ssl
>>> print(ssl.OPENSSL_VERSION)
OpenSSL 3.0.15 3 Sep 2024

Kind regards,
