Product10 versions
The short answer

Openlinux is made by Caldera. We track 36 published vulnerabilities listed under that exact name, across 10 versions. None of them is on the list of flaws known to be exploited today. Caldera lists newer releases under their own names, such as Openlinux Eserver, so check those pages too.

Other names

Is Openlinux listed under other names? Yes.

Caldera also lists Openlinux under more specific names, such as Openlinux Eserver and Openlinux Edesktop. Flaws listed only under those names are counted on their own pages, not here. If you run one of these, open its page for its own exploited flaws.
