Hi,
I've got a small doubt : since today I upgraded openssl with last security update , does running processes that uses openssl (browsers for example) are involved in upgrade also if running ? In other words : do I have to restart the browser to let it use last openssl version or is not necessary ?

For what I know this shouldn't be necessary due to dynamic linking library behaviour , that is almost common in all Linux distro. Am I right ?
