Title:
  OpenSSL version is not dependable

Status in openssl package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Greetings!

  Is there any reason why Ubuntu 14.04 LTS openssl version is still
  1.0.1f?

  From https://www.openssl.org/news/openssl-1.0.1-notes.html there have
  been a lot of patches since that version. In fact this critical patch
  https://www.openssl.org/news/vulnerabilities.html#2016-6304 is only
  available in latest version OpenSSL 1.0.1u [22 Sep 2016].

  I run the below:
  sudo apt-get update
  sudo apt-get install openssl libssl-dev
  openssl version -a

  And I got:
  $ openssl version -a
  OpenSSL 1.0.1f 6 Jan 2014
  built on: Fri Sep 23 12:19:57 UTC 2016
  platform: debian-amd64
  options:  bn(64,64) rc4(8x,int) des(idx,cisc,16,int) blowfish(idx)

  OPENSSLDIR: "/usr/lib/ssl"

  Does this mean that 4 hours and 10 minutes ago 1.0.1f was rebuilt?

  Best,
