Comment (by cypherpunks):

 > What's wrong with those paths?
 They are hard-coded. That's a main bug and vulnerability, in general.
 Also they are not allowed for your app-local OpenSSL.
 > They should not be user-writable. I mean that's actually part of the
 OpenSSL fix for that CVE. If that's wrong it seems to me a bug against
 OpenSSL should get filed.
 Yes.
 > Are you claiming `C:\Program Files` and `C:\Program Files (x86)` are
 user-writable?
 `C:\Program Files (x86)` doesn't exist in 32-bit Windows.
