It maintains several series at once: 3.0.21, 3.4.6, 3.5.7 and 3.6.3 were all released on 2026-06-09, with 4.0.0 already out. So upgrades within a major.minor are stable point upgrades per the OE-Core stable release policy (ref-manual, "Stable Point Release Upgrades"). https://docs.yoctoproject.org/dev/ref-manual/release-process.html#stable-point-release-upgrades https://openssl-library.org/policies/releasestrat/ Checked the last three point releases. Each is labelled "a security patch release" in its own NEWS.md header, and every entry is a CVE fix, the item count matching the unique CVE count exactly: 15 CVEs in 3.5.7 (Jun 09 2026), 7 in 3.5.6 (Apr 07 2026), 12 in 3.5.5 (Jan 27 2026). When a series reaches EOL the regex must be moved to the next maintained series by hand, as that is a feature-level change. One limit is worth stating, from this recipe's own history: 3.2.4 -> 3.2.5 was refused on scarthgap in July 2025 for intermittent ptest failures in a dependent recipe, bisected to an upstream commit and reported upstream, and the branch went to 3.2.6 instead. A fixes-only release can still fail to integrate, so proposing an upgrade is not the same as it passing. Already tracked this way on the OE stable branches, counting only bumps since each branch forked: kirkstone 3.0.2 -> 3.0.19 on the 3.0 LTS series; scarthgap 3.2.1 -> 3.2.6 then, at EOL, 3.5.5 -> 3.5.7; wrynose picked up 3.5.7.
