Hey there! Can you let me know how you tried to update OpenSSL and what operating system you're using? I just checked an AlmaLinux 8 machine and see this version present:

openssl-1.1.1k-6.el8_5.x86_64

In general, it's not recommended to try and update that package past the point of what is provided with the operating system base packages as you could run into unexpected compatibility issues.

Hello
My operating system is
Operating System
CentOS v7.9.2009

Use the following update method
7
openssl version
yum info openssl
cd /usr/local/src
wget https://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.1.1n.tar.gz
tar -xvzf openssl-1.1.1n.tar.gz
cd openssl-1.1.1n
./config
make depend
make
make test
make install
mv /usr/bin/openssl /root/
#ln -s /usr/local/ssl/bin/openssl /usr/bin/openssl
openssl version

Thank you

Thanks for that - I'd actually recommend not doing those type of updates on the system, but even so, that isn't related to the cPanel software on the machine as that is an operating system package.

I know it's not connected to the control panel
