How to check for vulnerable versions of OpenSSL
Versions 1.0.1 to 1.0.1f are potentially vulnerable. Version 1.0.1g if the fixed version. Other versions of OpenSSL (1.0.0 branch, 0.9.8 branch) are not vulnerable.
A basic version check: openssl version -a
A more specific check: openssl version -a| grep -oE '1.0.1[a-g]{1}?|DOPENSSL_NO_HEARTBEATS'
This should return the version, assuming version 1.0.1x. If the OPENSSL_NO_HEARTBEATS flag shows up then it’s not vulnerable regardless of version.
