OpenSSL 0.9.7 has been unsupported for quite some time.  Therefore,
as far as I know the OpenSSL team is not checking 0.9.7 to verify
whether it is or is not affected by any recent vulnerability
disclosures.  It is almost certainly vulnerable to a number of
unpatched issues older than the ones you list.  That said:

0.9.7 has no DTLS support, so these can't be a problem.

The Solaris 0.9.7 is not compiled without SSLv3 support.

0.9.7 has no support elliptic curve cryptography.
