[openssl-users] openssl shared libs

[Mirko Fit]

Hi,

I've got some questions on the shared build of openssl.
Is it safe to use the shared libraries libssl.so and libcrypto.so?
Couldn't the shared libs be replaced by manipulated ones that intercept 
my calls and steal the passwords?
I was wondering why every linux distrubutions comes with these shared 
libs if the scenario I described was possible.

Thanks,
Mirko
