After the string of vulnerabilities, I know that OpenSSL got a wave of investment.

I'm curious how much of this still stands today.

I got a few thousand dollars of that money as a security bug bounty.

OpenSSL fixed the problem quickly, but one year on still haven't accepted the regression test for the issue. It would be amusing if it wasn't so horrifying.

look at the list of CVE's since[0], as well as tedunangst's commentary on his blog[1]. they pair up nicely.

20 vulnerabilities found so far in 2016 in openSSL, that's basically saying that the codebase is still not secure.
