as I mentioned; I updated my openssl version to 1.1.1-1ubuntu2.1~18.04.15 and followed the code mentioned in github.com/drago-96/CVE-2022-0778 to verify if it is fixed. But it's going into an infinite loop. Do I need to update any other package? Or not linking something properly?
Edit: could verify the fix after I did "apt upgrade". That means some other package also needs to be updated. Don't know which one though.
