Up until today, Node.js in EPEL 6 and 7 was using the very old 0.10.x series 
which was compatible with our system OpenSSL. However, Node.js 4.x and later 
requires at least 1.0.2... or at least I thought it did until I saw the RDO 
patch in this thread.

I'm going to explore that option today; it may indeed be the easiest answer.

To answer your question: current versions of Node.js use the system libs, so 
they're covered. That being said, Node.js upstream follows  the CVE 
announcements of OpenSSL closely and regularly releases new versions with those 
fixes applied. (Not that it matters in our case).
