Experts looking for some authentic answer on Haproxy and OpenSSL.

• What is the most recent version of HAProxy that will work with OpenSSL 1.0.2 (or close to that version at version).

• What is the oldest version of OpenSSL that works with the newest version of HAProxy.

Appreciate any quick response on that.

Thanks

All current stable releases as well as the development tree support openssl-1.0.2 and will do for a long time. There are no plans to drop OpenSSL 1.0.2 support. If it doesn’t build, it’s a bug that will be fixed.

Haproxy 1.8 and later support both OpenSSL 1.1.0 and 1.1.1. Haproxy 1.8.15 will introduce a new options to configure TLSv1.3 ciphers, but that doesn’t mean older 1.8 releases can’t be used for OpenSSL 1.1.1 and TLSv1.3, it’s just that the TLSv1.3 ciphersuites are not configurable within haproxy.

Hey Lukas,

Appreciate your response. We are planning to use our own FIPS module with HAproxy. For that we have so far tested the integration using OpenSSL 1.0.2.

So most probably we planning to use OpenSSL 1.0.2 with latest Haproxy version i-e 1.8. So again to reconfirm the latest Haproxy 1.8 (latest stable) has support for OpenSSL 1.0.2? and what is the lowest OpenSSL version has support with latest HAproxy version(stable).

Thanks

Reconfirming, OpenSSL 1.0.2 works fine with Haproxy 1.8.

Even OpenSSL 0.9.8 still works with Haproxy 1.8:

If you are developing a new openssl module, I would suggest you do that with OpenSSL 1.1.1 instead though. Upstream OpenSSL will drop support for OpenSSL 1.0.2 in about a year:

https://www.openssl.org/policies/releasestrat.html

OpenSSL 1.1.1 is where you want to base your development effort on.

Hey @lukastribus thanks again for your response. I’ll convey this to our development team.

Cheers
